Kagithane is a district on the European side of Istanbul, north of the historic centre and next to Sisli, Levent and Gayrettepe. It is a business and residential area rather than a tourist one: there is no Hagia Sophia or Grand Bazaar here, and people usually come for work or because their hotel is nearby. If you are staying in Laleli, Beyazit or Sultanahmet, going there is a separate trip across a good part of the city, so it is worth deciding first whether it is worth it. Our guide currently lists four places in Kagithane: Delta Spa Hamam (a hammam), plus the day spas Zen SPA at Four Points by Sheraton, Miel Spa Kordon Istanbul and Healife Wellness Club. For a classic Turkish bath near Sultanahmet and Cemberlitas, look at the old-city districts instead. If you are staying around Levent or Gayrettepe, Kagithane is right next door.
Delta Spa Hamam sits inside the Delta Hotels by Marriott Istanbul Haliç in Kağıthane, so it is a separate trip from the Laleli–Sultanahmet old-city cluster rather than a stop on it. It is open every day from 12:00 to 22:00 and combines a Turkish bath with a pool, steam room, sauna and massage. Google shows 4.9 from 848 reviews, but prices, session lengths and women/men arrangements are not published.
Zen SPA is a day spa inside the Four Points by Sheraton in Kağıthane, so it sits outside the Laleli–Sultanahmet old-city cluster. It has a Turkish bath, sauna, steam room and massage, and it opens every day from 11:00 to 23:00, which leaves room for an evening visit. Google shows 4.7 from 711 reviews, though the website lists no prices or session lengths, so it is worth confirming details before you go.
A day spa in Kağıthane (Seyrantepe), housed in the social facility of the Kordon İstanbul Güzelbahçe complex, so it sits away from the Laleli–Sultanahmet area rather than in the old centre. It has an indoor pool, hammam, sauna, pilates studio, gym and three massage rooms, one of them a VIP room, and holds 4.7 on Google from 103 reviews. Appointments are made by phone or WhatsApp, and it is open every day until 22:00.
Healife Wellness Club is a day spa tucked inside the Kordon İstanbul complex on Cendere Street in Kağıthane, well away from the Laleli–Sultanahmet cluster, so plan it as a separate cross-city trip. It opens early on weekdays (from 07:00) and runs until 22:00 Monday to Saturday, with a shorter Sunday. We couldn't verify its facilities, prices or booking rules, so check its website or call ahead.
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.
This spa sits in Şişli, outside the Laleli–Beyazıt–Sultanahmet core, so for visitors based in the old city it means a separate trip. It is open 24 hours every day and has a hamam, sauna, steam room and jacuzzi, with Thai, hot stone and bamboo fusion massages on the menu. You have to book ahead by phone or WhatsApp, and the website lists no prices.
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.
This is the spa inside the Sheraton Istanbul Levent, in the Levent business district, so it sits outside the Laleli, Beyazıt and Sultanahmet areas this guide focuses on. It has a 4.5 rating on Google from 1,436 reviews. We have no service list, prices or opening hours, so check these with the hotel before you plan a visit.
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.
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.
A massage salon on Koca Mansur Sokak in Şişli's Bomonti area, a separate trip from Laleli or Sultanahmet if you're staying in the old city. It's open daily from 09:00 to 23:00 and holds 4.2 on Google across 229 reviews. We couldn't confirm services or prices, so check by phone or on istanbulsislimasaj.com before you go.
A day spa inside a hotel in Şişli's Bomonti area, so outside the Laleli–Sultanahmet tourist core. It has a hammam, sauna, steam room and pool, and also offers massage. It opens at 10:00 every day and stays open until 1 a.m. from Friday to Sunday. Its website gives no prices or session lengths, and it holds a 4.9 rating on Google.
8 venues on this list offer massage; some are massage-only, others combine it with a hamam. Durations and prices are listed with their date on each venue page.
Kagithane lies outside the historic peninsula. From Laleli, Beyazit or Sultanahmet, a workable route is the T1 tram to Aksaray, then the M1 metro to Yenikapi, where you change to the M2 towards Hacıosman as far as Sisli-Mecidiyekoy. From there the M7 line runs through Mecidiyekoy, Caglayan and Kagithane. The alternative is the M2 to Gayrettepe, then a change to the M11 (Gayrettepe to Istanbul Airport), which also passes through Kagithane. Check the station nearest to your chosen venue on a map before you set out. From Istanbul Airport (IST), the M11 also runs through Kagithane.
Four at the moment: the hammam Delta Spa Hamam, and the day spas Zen SPA (Four Points by Sheraton), Miel Spa Kordon Istanbul and Healife Wellness Club – Kagithane.
T1 tram to Aksaray, M1 to Yenikapi, M2 to Sisli-Mecidiyekoy, then M7 to Kagithane. Alternatively take the M2 to Gayrettepe and change to the M11.
It depends on the programme and season. Each venue's page shows its current price with the date it was checked, so rely on that.
Usually not, as hammams near Sultanahmet and Cemberlitas are closer. Kagithane makes sense if you are staying in Levent, Gayrettepe or Sisli.
