Riva Hotel Nişantaşı
If your days are spent around Sultanahmet, this is a spa you would cross the city for, not stumble upon. Riva Hotel Nişantaşı, in Şişli, has a roughly 500 m² spa section with a Turkish bath, sauna, steam room and massage. It is open daily from 11:00 to 23:00, so it suits the evening after the museums. Google shows 4.6 from 106 reviews. Prices, whether men and women are separated, and whether you must book are not stated, so ask before you go.
Your first visit here
The spa offers a Turkish bath, sauna, steam room and massage in a section of about 500 m². Prices, whether the sections are separate for women and men, and whether a reservation is needed are not stated, so ask the hotel by phone or at reception. The building's history is also not stated; do not expect a historic hamam.
Fitting it into an Old City trip
Nişantaşı and neighbouring Beşiktaş and Şişli are well outside Sultanahmet. From the Old City you can take the T1 tram from Sultanahmet toward Kabataş, or the M2 metro (via Vezneciler) toward Taksim; the final leg to Nişantaşı is not covered here, so ask the hotel. Since the spa opens at 11:00 and closes at 23:00, the late afternoon or evening after the mosques and museums is the practical slot.
What works well
- Four treatments in one place: Turkish bath, sauna, steam room and massage, which lets a first-timer compare them in one visit.
- Late hours, 11:00 to 23:00 daily, leave room for a full sightseeing day first.
- Located inside a hotel, so the setting is a modern hotel spa rather than a traditional public bathhouse.
Worth knowing first
- Prices and the men/women section arrangement are not published, which makes planning harder.
- It is in Nişantaşı, away from the Old City, so reaching it costs extra travel time.
- Steam room
- Turkish bath
- Massage
- Inside a hotel
- Sauna
