Aurel Spa Occidental Hotel Traditional Turkish Bath and Massage
Aurel Spa is the hammam and massage centre of the Occidental hotel on Topçu Caddesi in Taksim, Beyoğlu, so it belongs to a Taksim evening, not a Sultanahmet morning. The doors are open daily from 10:00 to midnight. Google rates it 4.9 across 514 reviews. The venue describes its offer as a traditional Turkish bath plus massage. We could not reach its website, so the service list, prices, women's and men's sections and booking rules are unconfirmed.
Your first visit here
The venue lists a traditional Turkish bath and massage, and it sits inside a hotel. Prices, the treatment menu, whether men and women use separate sections, and whether you must book are not stated, so ask before you go. If you have never been to a hammam, ask what the session includes and how long it lasts.
Fitting it into an Old City trip
The spa is in Taksim, on the Beyoğlu side, away from Sultanahmet. Hours run 10:00–00:00 daily, so the most natural slot is the evening after the museums and mosques. From the Old City, the T1 tram runs through Sultanahmet to Sirkeci, and the M2 metro serves Taksim station, with Vezneciler as an M2 stop on the Old City side. Check the exact route and walking distance to the hotel yourself, as they are not given here.

Worth knowing first
