Transportation Options

Public Transport

Public transportation requires taking the HAVAIST airport shuttle to Esenler, followed by a metro connection and potential additional walking with luggage. This journey can take 100-120 minutes depending on connections and traffic conditions. The route involves multiple transfers, which can be challenging with luggage and in unfamiliar surroundings.

Airport Shuttle

Shared shuttle services operate on fixed schedules to the Fatih area. While budget-friendly, these services involve multiple hotel stops, extending journey time considerably. Limited luggage space and rigid departure times may not suit all travelers, particularly those arriving on early morning or late night flights.

Taxi Service

Standard taxis are available at the airport, but journey costs can vary significantly based on traffic conditions and route choice. During peak hours, finding an available taxi willing to make the long journey to Fatih can be challenging. Vehicle quality and driver familiarity with the specific hotel location may vary.
