Reaching Arena Hotel Special Class from Sabiha Gokcen Airport via public transportation requires multiple transfers. The journey starts with the HAVABUS to Kadıköy, followed by a ferry crossing to Eminönü, and finally a tram to Sultanahmet. This complex route typically takes 2-2.5 hours, depending on traffic and connection times. Managing luggage through various transport changes can be challenging, especially during peak hours.
Shared shuttle services operate from Sabiha Gokcen Airport but follow fixed schedules with multiple hotel stops. The journey can extend beyond 2.5 hours due to various pickup points. Limited luggage space and predetermined departure times may not accommodate early check-ins or late flights. Advanced booking is required, and the shuttle drops passengers at central points rather than directly at Arena Hotel Special Class.
While taxis are available at Sabiha Gokcen Airport, the 46.9 km journey to Sultanahmet can be unpredictable. Fares vary significantly based on traffic conditions and time of day. During peak hours, the trip might take over 90 minutes. Vehicle quality varies, and communication can be challenging for international travelers.
