Transportation Options

Public Transport

While public transportation connects Sabiha Gokcen Airport to Fatih, the journey involves multiple transfers. The HAVABÜS service to Taksim, followed by metro and tram connections, typically takes 2-2.5 hours. This option requires managing luggage through crowded stations and can be challenging during peak hours or adverse weather conditions.

Airport Shuttle

Shared shuttle services operate on fixed schedules with multiple hotel stops, extending journey time significantly. Limited luggage space and inflexible departure times make this option less convenient for travelers, especially those arriving on early morning or late evening flights.

Taxi

Standard taxis from Sabiha Gokcen Airport to Elite Marmara Old City Hotel face variable journey times due to Istanbul's unpredictable traffic patterns. The 49.7 km route can take between 1-2 hours depending on traffic conditions. Fare meters run continuously during traffic delays, potentially leading to unexpectedly high costs.
