The only place in Istanbul that publishes a day spa entry price on its own website is Raffles İstanbul: its spa menu lists daily entry (Spa Access) at €125. We checked the websites of the 23 Istanbul spas in our guide, and no other spa clearly states a day-use price. In practice, at most places the way into the hammam, sauna and steam room is to book a treatment. At O'Spa the sauna and steam room can be used before or after a therapy, and the shortest sessions cost 3,500 TL. At Melas a 30-minute hammam ritual costs 2,200 TL. The information below was compiled from the spas' own websites on 13 October 2026. Where a spa does not publish a price, we have not given an estimate. Prices change often; check with the spa before you go.

Spa-by-spa details
Raffles İstanbul Spa
The English spa menu on Raffles' website (PDF, last updated 31 October 2025) lists daily entry as "Daily Entrance: Spa Access" €125. The spa page itself gives no price; confirm the menu price when you book. The spa has three traditional hammams, an indoor pool, an outdoor pool that closes seasonally, and women's and men's relaxation areas. The wet areas are open daily 07:00-22:00 and treatments 12:00-22:00. According to the menu, booking ahead is recommended, and guests aged 16 and under must come with an adult. The menu does not say which of these areas the daily entry covers; ask when you book.
O'Spa by O'Wellness
The Sarıyer spa does not sell day entry, but the wet areas come with a treatment: according to its website, the Finnish dry sauna and the steam room can be used before or after a therapy. The facility also has a traditional Turkish bath, massage suites and a relaxation lounge. The shortest sessions cost 3,500 TL: a 30-minute back massage, a 30-minute Indian head massage, reflexology, and a peeling with foam wash. A package combining massage with peeling and foam wash costs 5,000 TL. Prices include VAT. The spa is open daily 09:00-23:00 and also accepts walk-ins, but notes that there may be a wait on busy days. Guests under 18 need the consent of a parent or guardian.
Melas Spa & Wellness
The Beşiktaş spa does not sell entry on its own either; treatments and packages are booked in advance. In the Turkish bath section, the traditional hammam ritual with foam massage costs 2,200 TL for 30 minutes and 2,500 TL for 40 minutes. Full-body massages start at 2,600 TL with a 50-minute classic Swedish massage, and targeted massages at 1,750 TL for 30 minutes; the cheapest item on the menu is a manicure at 1,250 TL. The facility has a hammam, pool and sauna. The menu does not say whether the wet areas can be used with a treatment; ask when you book.
Operla Spa Wellness
The Arnavutköy spa has a hammam, sauna, gym and restaurant. Its website lists a classic massage (50 minutes) at 2,000 TL. The spa is open 12:00-23:00; bookings are made by phone or WhatsApp.
Luna Den Spa & Fitness
The Şişli spa offers two day-use packages. The half-day package includes a 15-minute massage, 30 minutes in the hammam and 15 minutes in the sauna; the full-day package includes a 30-minute massage, 60 minutes in the hammam and 30 minutes in the sauna. Prices are not published on the website; you have to ask by phone or WhatsApp.
Muse and Life Spa
The Nişantaşı spa opens its wet areas through membership: the monthly "Ritüel" membership covers use of the hammam and sauna. A single "day ritual" is sold as a gift, but its price is not on the website. The spa is open 10:00-22:00.
O'Wellness Dragos
At the Maltepe club the pool is open to members only; non-members can book spa treatments by appointment. The club is open 06:00-23:00 on weekdays and 09:00-21:00 at weekends. Membership and treatment prices are not published on the website.
Spas that give prices by phone
The following Istanbul spas in our guide describe their wet areas or treatments but publish no price for day use:
- Ocean Spa / InterContinental Taksim, Beyoğlu: sauna, steam room, ice fountain and hammam. Facility 07:00-22:00, massages 09:00-22:00.
- Qualia Spa & Wellness, Delta Hotels Levent, Şişli: hammam, sauna, steam room, pool and fitness, 07:00-23:00.
- Explore Spa and Fitness, Le Méridien Etiler, Beşiktaş: the spa is included for hotel guests; for use as an outside guest, call the hotel.
- Zen Spa, Four Points by Sheraton, Kağıthane: hammam, sauna and steam room; information is given via WhatsApp.
- AS Spa Merkezi, Başakşehir: open 11:00-02:00.
- NEX Spa, Şişli: asks you to call for prices.
- La Vita Spa, Gorrion Hotel, Bahçelievler: treatments by appointment. You can change or cancel an appointment free of charge up to 24 hours beforehand; for later cancellations half the fee is charged.
Which option suits you?
If you only want the pool and wet areas, the only option with a clearly stated price is Raffles' €125 daily entry. Ask which areas are included when you book. If you are budgeting in TL, getting into the wet areas with a treatment is cheaper. At O'Spa you can use the sauna and steam room before or after a 3,500 TL session. At Melas the hammam ritual costs 2,200 TL. If you will go regularly, a membership may make more sense. Muse and Life's monthly ritual membership covers the hammam and sauna, and the O'Wellness Dragos membership covers the pool. If you want to spend a whole day, look at Luna Den's half-day and full-day packages; massage, hammam and sauna come in one package.
What to ask when booking
- What does entry cover? The pool, hammam, sauna, steam room and jacuzzi may not all be on the same ticket.
- Is there a time limit? Some spas open the wet area only before and after a treatment.
- Is the weekend price different? None of the spas we checked lists separate weekday and weekend prices on its website; ask on the phone.
- Are towels, robe and slippers included? Bring your swimwear.
- Age limits: O'Spa requires parental consent for under-18s; at Raffles, guests aged 16 and under must be accompanied by an adult.
- Cancellation terms: At La Vita, half the fee is charged for cancellations made less than 24 hours ahead.
Why don't most spas give a day-use price?
Some hotel spas reserve their wet areas for hotel guests (at Le Méridien Etiler the spa is included for those staying at the hotel), some sell access through membership (Muse and Life, O'Wellness Dragos), and most give prices by phone. So when looking for a "day spa", first ask whether outside guests are accepted, then ask the price. In our guide you can see venues offering day spa services and all the spas in Istanbul, each in a single list.
