Melas Spa & Wellness
If you are staying in Sultanahmet, note first that Melas Spa & Wellness is not in the Old City. It is in the basement level (floor -2) of the Melas Hotels building in Gayrettepe, in the Beşiktaş district. The spa takes day guests and combines a hamam, a pool and a sauna with a massage menu that has listed prices. Booking is mandatory and goes through WhatsApp. It is open daily from 07:00 to 23:00, and Google shows 4.8 from 926 reviews.
First visit: what to expect
The spa offers a hamam, a pool, a sauna and massages, and it also mentions mineral pools and thermal areas. Classic Swedish, Medical and Traditional Bali massages are on the menu, as well as couple packages. Face and skin care are named on the website, but their prices are not given. Separate women's and men's areas are not stated, so ask when you book on WhatsApp.
Fitting it into an Old City trip
Gayrettepe is in Beşiktaş, away from the Sultanahmet sights, so plan a half day for it. From Sultanahmet you can take the T1 tram towards Kabataş, or the T1 to Sirkeci and Marmaray or M2 via Yenikapı or Taksim. The final stretch to Gayrettepe is not covered in our transport notes, so check the route with the spa. With opening hours of 07:00–23:00, either an early slot before the museums or an evening session after sightseeing works.

What works well
- Hamam, pool and sauna are available in the same place, so a first hamam visit can be combined with other spa options.
- Massage prices are published in Turkish lira, with 50, 80 and 110 minute options for the main treatments.
- Open every day from 07:00 to 23:00, which leaves room for an early start or a late evening slot.

- Booking is required, and whether men and women have separate sections is not stated.
- Turkish bath
- Pool
- Massage
- Inside a hotel
