Selvese Collection Hotel Galata 1875 enjoys a prime location in Istanbul's vibrant Beyoglu district, highly favored by international visitors. This boutique hotel sits in the historic Galata quarter, steps away from the iconic Galata Tower and the bustling Istiklal Avenue. The surrounding area features elegant 19th-century architecture, contemporary art galleries, and traditional Turkish restaurants. Within walking distance, guests can explore the Museum of Modern Art, vintage tram rides, and the charming narrow streets leading to the Golden Horn waterfront. The district seamlessly blends historical charm with modern cultural venues, boutique shops, and authentic cafes.
Public transportation from Istanbul Airport requires multiple transfers, starting with the HAVAIST airport bus to Taksim Square, followed by either a walk or additional transit to reach the hotel. The total journey typically takes 90-120 minutes, depending on traffic conditions. Managing luggage through crowded public spaces and steep streets can be challenging, especially during peak hours.
Shared shuttle services operate on fixed schedules with multiple hotel stops along the route. The journey can extend beyond 2 hours due to other passenger pickups and dropoffs. Limited luggage space and rigid departure times make this option less convenient for travelers with specific scheduling needs or those arriving on delayed flights.
While taxis are readily available at the airport, finding ones willing to use the meter can be challenging. Journey times vary significantly with traffic conditions, typically ranging from 45-90 minutes. Vehicle quality and comfort levels are inconsistent, and prices can fluctuate based on route selection and time of day.
