Transportation Options

Public Transport

Reaching Pembe Ev from Istanbul Airport using public transportation requires multiple transfers. The journey starts with the HAVAIST airport bus to Besiktas, followed by a local bus or taxi to Ortakoy. This option typically takes 90-120 minutes depending on traffic and can be challenging with luggage, especially during peak hours. The total journey involves considerable walking and may be difficult to navigate for first-time visitors.

Airport Shuttle

Shared airport shuttles provide service to the Besiktas area but don't offer direct drop-off at Pembe Ev. Travelers need to arrange the final leg of transportation from the shuttle stop to the hostel. The fixed departure schedules and multiple stops along the route can extend journey times significantly, often exceeding 2 hours.

Taxi

While taxis are readily available at Istanbul Airport, the journey to Ortakoy can be unpredictable. Fares vary significantly based on traffic conditions and time of day. The 46.0 km route often faces heavy traffic, particularly during rush hours, and finding a taxi willing to use the meter can be challenging for tourists.
