Reaching Blue Zerzevan Konak Hotel from Istanbul Airport via public transportation requires multiple transfers. The journey starts with the HAVAIST airport shuttle to Sultanahmet, followed by a walk to the hotel. The total journey typically takes 90-120 minutes depending on traffic conditions. While economical, managing luggage through crowded public transport can be challenging, especially during peak hours.
Shared airport shuttles operate on fixed schedules with multiple stops along the route. While more affordable than private options, the service requires advance booking and may involve waiting times. The journey can extend beyond 2 hours due to multiple hotel pickups and drop-offs, and the nearest drop-off point may require additional walking with luggage.
Regular taxis are available at Istanbul Airport's official taxi stands. The journey typically takes 60-90 minutes, depending on traffic conditions. Prices vary significantly based on traffic and time of day, and finding a taxi willing to make the long journey during peak hours can be challenging. Some drivers may be unfamiliar with the hotel's exact location in the narrow streets of Sultanahmet.
