Gayrettepe is a modern business district on the European side, next to Levent, Şişli and Esentepe. It has no historic hamams like those in Sultanahmet or Çemberlitaş; the area is mostly offices and hotels. Spas here tend to be inside hotels or run as small massage studios. Our guide currently lists three: Melas Spa & Wellness, FEY Masaj ve Spa Salonu, and the spa at the Luna Den Sürmeli Hotel. It suits visitors staying in this part of town, or anyone who wants a massage after a working day. If you want a traditional Turkish bath with a domed marble hall, head to the old city instead. Prices and opening hours are on each venue's page, with the date they were checked.

This day spa sits on the lower level (floor -2) of the Melas hotel in Gayrettepe and is open every day from 07:00 to 23:00. Besides a hamam, pool and sauna, it offers massages with listed prices, such as Classic Swedish at 2,600–4,750 TL and Medical at 3,450–6,500 TL. You can't just walk in: booking is required and is handled through WhatsApp.
This is a Şişli address, on Büyükdere Avenue in Mecidiyeköy, so it sits outside the Laleli–Sultanahmet area and needs its own trip. It is open every day from 10:00 to 23:00, but you must book first, by phone or online. The menu covers reflexology, Bali, Thai, Shiatsu, medical and aroma massage, plus a Turkish hammam, sauna and jacuzzi, and Google shows 4.8 from 486 reviews.
Luna Den Spa & Fitness is a day spa inside the Sürmeli Hotel in Gayrettepe, on the Şişli–Beşiktaş border close to Fulya and Esentepe. It is open every day from 09:00 to 23:00 and holds a 4.8 Google rating from 113 reviews. We could not confirm its facilities or prices, so it is worth asking before you go.
Veyron Hotels & Spa is a hotel on Sağlam Fikir Sokak in Esentepe, Şişli, near Levent, with its spa located inside the property. It sits well away from the old-city areas of Laleli, Beyazıt and Sultanahmet, so for visitors based there it means a separate trip across town. We could not confirm its services, prices or opening hours, nor whether non-guests are admitted, so a phone call beforehand is the safe step.
NuSPA Torun Center is a massage venue at Akıncı Bayırı Sk. No:14 in Fulya, Şişli. It sits in the Mecidiyeköy–Fulya–Esentepe area rather than the old city, so visitors staying in Laleli or Sultanahmet would need a separate trip. It is open every day from 09:00 to 22:00, and its services and prices are listed only on nuspa.com.tr.
Muse and Life Spa is a day spa inside the TZL Suites hotel in Nişantaşı (Teşvikiye), outside the core districts this guide covers. It offers Bali, Swedish and hot stone massage, a Turkish hamam with scrub-and-foam and coffee peeling, plus sauna, steam room and skincare. It is open every day from 10:00 to 22:00 and booking is required, which you can do on the website, but prices are not listed, so you need to ask by phone or WhatsApp; a chauffeured VIP transfer is available.
A massage and exercise studio in Levent on the Beşiktaş side, so outside the Laleli–Sultanahmet area. It opens daily from 10:00 to 22:00, but you can't walk in: booking is required, via the website or WhatsApp. Google shows 4.9 from 141 reviews.
Rinova Spa & Massage is a massage centre on Prof. Nurettin Mazhar Öktel Sokak in Şişli, open 24 hours every day of the week, which suits late arrivals or an unusual schedule. Google shows 4.8 from roughly a hundred reviews. What treatments it offers, what they cost and whether you need to book ahead is not clear from the available information, and the website listed for it carries a different name.
This is a hotel spa in Levent, away from the central Laleli and Sultanahmet districts. The in-hotel Qualitasspa has indoor and outdoor pools, a Turkish hamam, a sauna, a steam room and massage, and Google rates the hotel 4.5 from 5,957 reviews. Its website lists no prices or session lengths, so you will need to phone the hotel before planning a visit.
NuSPA Kanyon is a massage and spa centre on Büyükdere Avenue in Levent, so it sits in the city's business district rather than in the old-town area around Sultanahmet. It is open every day, 09:00–22:00 on weekdays and 10:00–19:00 at weekends. We could not confirm its services or prices, so check the website or call ahead for the current list.
Wave Wellness Spa & Turkish Hamam sits in Şişli, outside the Laleli–Beyazıt–Sultanahmet–Çemberlitaş area, so visitors staying in the old city will need to plan the trip there. It has a 4.8 Google rating from 297 reviews, and its listing shows it open 24 hours every day. That schedule looks unusual, so it is worth calling ahead to confirm.
Harmony Heaven Spa & Hamam is a hamam in Şişli at Palazoğlu Sk. No:14, in a different district from the Laleli–Sultanahmet old-city cluster. Google lists it as open 24 hours, seven days a week, with a 4.9 rating from 134 reviews. Services, prices and whether it has women's, men's or mixed sections aren't confirmed, so check with them before you go.

Gayrettepe is on the M2 metro (Yenikapı–Hacıosman), between Şişli-Mecidiyeköy and Levent. The M11 line to Istanbul Airport also starts here. From Laleli or Aksaray, take the M1 to Yenikapı and change to the M2 towards Hacıosman. From Sultanahmet, take the T1 tram to Sirkeci, Marmaray to Yenikapı, then the M2. From Şişhane, Taksim or Osmanbey, the M2 runs straight to Gayrettepe. From Istanbul Airport (IST), the M11 reaches Gayrettepe.
Our guide lists no historic hamams here, only hotel spas and massage studios. For a traditional hamam, go to Sultanahmet or Çemberlitaş.
