Transportation Options

Public Transport

While public transportation is available, it requires a combination of tram services with some walking. You'll need to take the T1 tram from Tophane station near Galataport to Sultanahmet station, followed by a 7-minute walk to the hotel. This option can be challenging with luggage and may take 35-45 minutes depending on waiting times.

Airport Shuttle
