Transportation Options

Public Transport

Public transportation from Sabiha Gokcen Airport requires multiple transfers. The journey starts with the HAVABUS to Kadıköy, followed by a ferry crossing to Karaköy, and finally a tram or taxi 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 challenging, especially during peak hours.

Airport Shuttle

Shared shuttle services operate on fixed schedules between Sabiha Gokcen Airport and central Istanbul. While more economical than private options, they involve multiple hotel stops, extending journey time to potentially 3 hours. Limited luggage space and rigid departure times make this option less convenient for travelers seeking comfort and flexibility.

Taxi

Regular taxis are available at Sabiha Gokcen Airport, but journey costs can vary significantly based on traffic conditions and time of day. The 48.3 km route typically takes 60-90 minutes, though peak hour traffic can extend this considerably. Drivers may not always be familiar with the specific hotel location, and communication can be challenging.
