Levent is a business district on the European side of Istanbul, known for its office towers and shopping malls. It lies outside the historic peninsula (Laleli, Beyazıt, Çemberlitaş, Sultanahmet), which is where the old bathhouses are. What you find here is different: hotel spas, modern hammams and massage studios. The listings include the spa at Wyndham Grand Istanbul Levent, Qualia Spa & Wellness at Delta Hotels Istanbul Levent by Marriott, the Spandrey hammam, and massage places such as Masseur Balance and Fizyo Help. Neighbouring areas are Esentepe, Gayrettepe, Şişli, Bomonti, Kağıthane and Seyrantepe. If you are staying in Sultanahmet or Laleli and want a traditional bath, look at the peninsula first. If your hotel or meetings are in this part of the city, Levent saves you the cross-town trip. Prices and opening hours are given on each venue's page, with the date they were checked.

Its website lists no prices or session lengths, so you will need to phone the hotel before planning a visit.

Veyron Hotels & Spa is a hotel on Sağlam Fikir Sokak in Esentepe, Şişli, near Levent, with its spa located inside the property.
