Transportation Options

Public Transport

Public transportation from Istanbul Airport involves taking the H2 airport bus to Mecidiyekoy, followed by the M2 metro to Sishane station. From there, it's a 10-minute walk to the hotel. The total journey typically takes 90-120 minutes depending on traffic and connection times. While economical, managing luggage through multiple transfers can be challenging, especially during peak hours.

Airport Shuttle

Shared shuttle services operate on fixed schedules with multiple hotel stops along the route. While more affordable than private options, the journey can take up to 2.5 hours due to other passenger pickups and drop-offs. Advanced booking is required, and service availability may be limited during early morning or late night hours.

Taxi

Traditional yellow taxis are available at the airport's official taxi stands. The 48.6 km journey typically takes 60-90 minutes, though this can significantly increase during rush hours. Fares vary based on traffic conditions and time of day, with limited trunk space for luggage being a common concern.
