Transportation Options

Public Transport

The journey from Istanbul Airport using public transportation requires multiple transfers. Take the IST-20 airport bus to Sultanahmet, followed by a 10-minute walk to the hotel. The total journey typically takes 90-120 minutes depending on traffic. While economical, managing luggage through busy streets and public transport can be challenging, especially during peak hours.

Airport Shuttle

Shared shuttle services operate on fixed schedules with multiple hotel stops. The journey can extend beyond 2 hours due to various pickup points. Limited luggage space and rigid departure times make this option less convenient for travelers seeking comfort and flexibility.

Taxi

Yellow taxis are available at the airport, but journey times and costs can vary significantly based on traffic conditions. During peak hours, finding a taxi willing to make the long journey to Sultanahmet can be challenging. Vehicle conditions and service quality may vary considerably.
