Transportation Options

Public Transport

Reaching Fatma Sultan Hotel from Istanbul Airport by public transportation requires multiple transfers. The HAVAIST airport shuttle to Sultanahmet, followed by a walk through narrow historic streets, takes approximately 90-120 minutes depending on traffic. Managing luggage on busy public transport and walking on cobblestone streets can be challenging, especially during peak tourist seasons.

Airport Shuttle

Shared airport shuttles operate on fixed schedules with multiple hotel stops, extending journey time significantly. The service requires advance booking and offers limited flexibility with departure times. During busy periods, waiting times at the airport can be considerable, and the shuttle drop-off point may still require some walking with luggage through Sultanahmet's historic streets.

Taxi Service

Regular taxis are available at Istanbul Airport, but the journey can be unpredictable. Fare variations are common depending on traffic conditions, and finding a taxi willing to use the meter can be challenging. The drive typically takes 60-90 minutes, with potential delays during rush hours. Some drivers may have difficulty locating the hotel in Sultanahmet's maze-like streets.
