Rival spa & Turkishbath is a hammam in Fatih, listed under Hocapaşa, Cağaloğlu and Gülhane, so it sits in the same part of the Old City as the main sights. Its menu runs from the traditional hammam and kese-and-foam wash to aromatherapy, mud and Bali massage, coffee peeling and a sauna and steam room. Two set packages, Sultan and Coffee, combine several of these treatments. Google shows 4.8, though the content of the reviews could not be read. Prices, durations, separate men's and women's sections and private rooms are not stated anywhere, and sources differ on the address and opening hours, so check those before you go.

Your first visit here

The listed services include the traditional hammam, kese and foam, aromatherapy and mud massage, coffee peeling, plus a sauna and steam room. The Sultan package covers hammam, kese and foam, mud massage, face massage, face mask and aromatherapy massage; the Coffee package adds coffee peeling, foam massage, coffee mask, face massage, Bali massage and a drink. Prices, durations, separate men's and women's sections, private or couple rooms and whether you must reserve are not stated, so ask when you book.

Fitting it into an Old City day

The spa is in Fatih around Hocapaşa and Cağaloğlu, near Gülhane and Sirkeci. The nearest listed T1 stops are Gülhane and Sirkeci, with Sultanahmet one stop further; Marmaray also stops at Sirkeci. Walking times are not given. One listing says 11:00–23:00 daily and another says open around the clock, so confirm first; an afternoon or evening visit after the museums and mosques fits either way.
