The Blu Hotel Istanbul enjoys a prime location in Sultanahmet, Istanbul's historic heart. Situated on Hudavendigar Street, this highly-regarded property places guests within walking distance of iconic landmarks including the Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, and Topkapi Palace. The surrounding area features charming cobblestone streets lined with traditional restaurants, authentic bazaars, and numerous cultural attractions. The hotel's position near the Gulhane tram station provides excellent connectivity to other parts of Istanbul.
Reaching Blu Hotel Istanbul from Sabiha Gokcen Airport by public transport requires multiple connections. Take the HAVABUS to Kadikoy, then ferry to Eminonu, followed by a tram or short walk to the hotel. This journey typically takes 120-150 minutes depending on traffic and connection times. Managing luggage through various transport changes can be challenging, especially during peak hours.
Shared shuttle services operate on fixed schedules with multiple hotel stops, extending journey time to approximately 140 minutes. Limited luggage space and preset departure times make this option less convenient for many travelers. Advanced booking is required, and services may not accommodate early morning or late-night flights.
Standard taxis are available at the airport, but journey times can vary significantly from 60 to 100 minutes depending on traffic conditions. Fares fluctuate based on traffic and time of day, with no guaranteed fixed rate. Vehicle quality and driver knowledge of the Sultanahmet area can be inconsistent.
