Transportation Options

Public Transport

Public transportation from Istanbul Airport involves taking the HAVAIST bus to Sultanahmet, followed by a short taxi ride or 15-minute walk to the hotel. This journey typically takes 90-120 minutes depending on traffic conditions. While economical, managing luggage through multiple transfers can be challenging, especially during peak hours.

Airport Shuttle

Shared shuttle services operate on fixed schedules with multiple hotel stops, extending the journey time to approximately 2-3 hours. Advanced booking is required, and the service offers limited flexibility with luggage space and pickup times. The nearest shuttle drop-off point may require additional walking with your bags.

Taxi

Standard taxis are available at the airport, with journey times varying between 50-90 minutes depending on traffic. Prices can fluctuate significantly based on traffic conditions and route taken.
