Ferman Sultan Hotel enjoys a prime location in Istanbul's historic Sultanahmet district, the heart of the city's Old Town. Situated among the cobblestone streets near major landmarks, the hotel serves as an ideal base for exploring Istanbul's rich heritage. The journey from Galataport Istanbul, the city's modern cruise port, takes guests through centuries of Istanbul's history, passing through the vibrant Karaköy district and along the historic Golden Horn waterfront.
Public transportation from Galataport involves taking the tram from Tophane station to Sultanahmet, followed by a walk through the historic streets. While economical, this option requires managing luggage across crowded tram cars and walking uphill through narrow streets, which can be challenging with cruise luggage.
Shared shuttle services from Galataport operate on fixed schedules with multiple stops, making the journey longer than necessary. Limited luggage space and preset departure times may not align well with cruise arrival schedules, potentially causing unnecessary waiting times.
While taxis are readily available at Galataport, securing one during peak cruise ship arrivals can be challenging. Journey times vary significantly based on traffic conditions, and prices may fluctuate. The narrow streets of Sultanahmet can also present navigation challenges for drivers unfamiliar with the area.
