If you are planning to come and visit Istanbul by staying in a luxury hotel that would allow you to visit the main tourist spots of the city without having to take a subscription to a Spa or Fitness Center, this article is for you. Indeed, I give you here my 3 favorite luxury hotels that will allow you to combine Fitness training, Spa and visiting the city.
Mandarin Oriental Bosphorus, Istanbul
When it comes to combining Fitness and Spa, the Mandarin Oriental Istanbul Bosphorus is by far my favorite. I love its Fitness Center with space, brightness and varied Technogym equipment. It is by far my favorite Fitness Center of the whole list. As for the Spa, there is nothing to complain about, very beautiful, very design, very relaxing, varied treatments and a luxurious setting. As for tourism, although it remains close to the hyper center of Istanbul, you will have to plan a means of transport to get there. It is probably the lowest ranked of my Top 3 in terms of geographical position because it is north of the Suspension Bridge (but everything is relative, it remains very accessible and close to the center).
Four Seasons Hotel Istanbul At The Bosphorus
A legendary place, a breathtaking setting, the FourSeasons Bosphorus is by far my favorite of this ranking in terms of location and luxury. This hotel is a true masterpiece that immerses its visitors in a palace of typical architecture, a mix of Byzantine luxury, Roman baths, Ottoman atmosphere and Turkish kindness. Its outdoor pool with a view of the Bosphorus is just a marvel in which you absolutely must go swimming during the beautiful days. Located a few minutes walk from the Dolmabahçe Palace and the Büyük Mecidiye Mosque, choosing this hotel is the assurance of superb walks along the Bosphorus that will leave you with memories for life. As for the Spa, nothing to complain about either, superb services, very luxurious and with a great touch of Roman baths. This hotel also offers an indoor swimming pool. Finally, as for the Fitness Center, it is quite well equipped with Technogym (old generation) with enough machines to do your cardio and various equipment that will succeed in helping out any Fitness fan for a few days. However, it is the least good Fitness Center of the 3 hotels in this ranking (once again, everything is relative, because there is a huge gap in quality between this Fitness Center and the rest of the other hotels that are not in my ranking).
Conrad Istanbul Bosphorus
The Conrad Istanbul offers a totally different atmosphere from the other two hotels in this ranking. Indeed, if I had to describe it, I would say that it is a mix of business atmosphere, modern architecture, luxury services and especially a slightly elevated position which offers a panoramic view over the entire Bosphorus (absolutely magnificent) which makes this hotel so unique. In addition, this hotel is slightly more accessible in terms of price than the other two hotels while offering all the services you can expect, indoor pool, outdoor pool, good location (a few minutes walk from the Dolmabahçe Palace). As for the Fitness Center, the Cardio area is very well equipped with Technogym. The rest of the equipment is more than enough to train for a few days in a complete way.
