The Anadolu Hotel Apart enjoys a prime location in Istanbul's historic Sultanahmet district, the heart of the city's cultural heritage. This boutique accommodation sits near essential landmarks including the Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque. The journey from Galataport Istanbul cruise terminal traverses through the vibrant Karaköy district, following the historic Golden Horn coastline before entering the ancient peninsula.

The final approach through Sultanahmet showcases the area's rich Byzantine and Ottoman architectural heritage.
While public transport is available, it requires a combination of tram services with at least one transfer. The nearest tram stop to Galataport is Tophane, requiring a 10-minute walk with luggage. During peak hours, trams can be extremely crowded, making luggage handling challenging.
Public shuttle services do not operate directly between Galataport and Sultanahmet hotels. Group shuttle options are limited and typically require advance booking with set schedules that may not align with cruise arrival times.
Standard taxis are available at Galataport's taxi stand. However, during peak cruise ship arrivals, demand can exceed availability. Fares can vary based on traffic conditions, and some drivers may be reluctant to make short inner-city journeys during busy periods.
