Reaching Kupeli Hotel from Istanbul Airport via public transportation requires multiple transfers. The journey involves taking the IST-20 airport bus to Yenikapi, followed by either the Marmaray line or tram to Sultanahmet. Total travel time typically exceeds 120 minutes, varying with traffic conditions. Managing luggage through transfers and walking to the hotel can be challenging, especially during peak hours or adverse weather.
Shared shuttle services operate on fixed schedules with multiple hotel stops throughout Sultanahmet. While more economical than private options, the journey can take up to 3 hours due to passenger collections and drop-offs. Limited luggage space and rigid departure times make this option less convenient for families or those with multiple bags.
Standard taxis are available at Istanbul Airport's official taxi stands. The 48.5 km journey typically takes 60-90 minutes, depending on traffic conditions.
