Best Spas and Hamams in Findikzade

On this page 8 Hamam2 Hotel Spa1 Day Spa1 Massage Studio

Findikzade is a residential district of Fatih on the western side of the historic peninsula, between Haseki and Capa. It is a lived-in neighbourhood rather than a tourist strip, so spa choice here is limited: this guide lists one massage centre, inside the Ramada by Wyndham Istanbul Old City. For a wider choice of hammams and spas, Laleli, Beyazit and Sultanahmet are a short tram ride away. It suits visitors staying in a quieter area who still want easy access to the old city.

12 spas and hamams in Findikzade that we reviewed and listed. 8 of them are traditional Turkish baths. Ranked by editor score; sponsored entries are clearly labelled and never affect the score. 11 of them sit just outside the area boundary and are shown with distance.
