Transportation Options

Public Transport

Public transportation from Istanbul Airport requires multiple transfers. The journey starts with the IST-20 airport bus to Yenikapi, followed by a metro connection and tram to Sultanahmet. Total journey time exceeds 2 hours, with additional walking required with luggage through crowded streets. Service frequency varies throughout the day, and comfort levels can be challenging during peak hours.

Airport Shuttle

Shared shuttle services operate on fixed schedules with multiple hotel stops, extending journey time significantly. Limited luggage space and preset departure times offer little flexibility. Advanced booking is required, and services may not accommodate early morning or late-night flights. The drop-off point may require additional walking to reach Hotel Novano.

Taxi Service

Standard taxis are available at the airport, but journey times can vary significantly based on traffic conditions. The 51.4 km route typically takes 1-1.5 hours, with prices fluctuating based on traffic and time of day.
