Transportation Options

Public Transport

The public transportation journey from Istanbul Airport involves taking the IST-20 airport bus to Yenikapi, followed by either the Marmaray or T1 tram to Sultanahmet. This route typically takes 100-120 minutes, requires multiple transfers, and can be challenging with luggage, especially during peak hours. The nearest tram stop is approximately 400 meters from the hotel.

Airport Shuttle

Shared shuttle services operate on fixed schedules with multiple hotel stops throughout the historic peninsula. Journey times can extend beyond 2.5 hours due to numerous pickup points and traffic conditions. Limited luggage space and rigid departure times make this option less convenient for many travelers.

Taxi

Standard taxis are available at the airport, but journey times and costs can vary significantly depending on traffic conditions, which are particularly unpredictable on the route to Sultanahmet. The trip typically takes 60-90 minutes, with higher fares during peak hours and potential challenges finding taxis that accept credit cards.
