Spas, hammams and massage in Burdur

Both venues listed in Burdur are spa areas within hotels: one is a mountain hotel among the pine forests of Ağlasun, the other a hotel on a university campus in the city centre. Burdur, in the Lakes Region, is known for Lake Salda and the ancient city of Sagalassos near Ağlasun. The spa options in the province also appeal to those who want to combine nature and culture trips with an overnight stay.

A mountain hotel in the forest at Ağlasun

Sagalassos Lodge & Spa is set in the pine forests of Ağlasun and listed as a mountain hotel spa. Alongside a heated indoor pool there are a Turkish bath, sauna, jacuzzi and fitness area. Its description also mentions massage, though the records do not separately state which types of massage are offered. The hotel's location in Ağlasun is convenient for those who want to relax in the hammam and sauna after a trip on the slopes of the ancient city. Because the pool is heated and indoors, swimming is possible in the cooler months of the mountain climate too.

A hotel on the campus in the centre

Lavanta Tepesi Otel is a city hotel on the İstiklal Campus of Mehmet Akif Ersoy University. Unlike the small pools often found in hotel spas, its indoor semi-Olympic pool is suitable for swimming longer distances. Beside the pool, a hammam, sauna, steam room and jacuzzi can also be used. Of the two venues, this hotel is the only one with treatments listed: facials and body treatments are on the list, and a fitness room is among the services too. For those who want to combine a short stay in the city centre with swimming and a hammam, it is a more accessible option than the resort in Ağlasun.

The arrangement for women and men at the two hotels in Burdur is not known. You need to find out when booking whether women and men use the pool, hammam and sauna at the same time or at different hours. Whether visitors not staying at the hotel can use the spa and pool, and whether there is a day pass or membership option, depends on each hotel's own policy. Details on what to wear in a hotel pool and hammam can be found in the guide on spa clothing and privacy.
