Transportation Options

Public Transport

Reaching Golden Horn Hotel from Sabiha Gokcen Airport via public transportation requires multiple transfers. The journey involves taking the HAVABUS to Kadikoy, followed by a ferry crossing to Eminonu, and a final tram ride or walk to the hotel. This complex route typically takes 2-2.5 hours, depending on traffic and connection times. Managing luggage through various transport changes can be particularly challenging.

Airport Shuttle

Shared shuttle services operate from Sabiha Gokcen Airport but follow fixed schedules with multiple hotel stops. The journey can extend beyond 3 hours due to passenger collection and drop-offs at various locations. Limited luggage space and rigid departure times make this option less convenient for travelers valuing comfort and efficiency.
