Transportation Options

Public Transport

Public transportation requires multiple changes, starting with the HAVABUS to Kadıköy, followed by a ferry crossing and tram connections. This journey can take up to 2.5 hours and becomes challenging with luggage, especially during peak hours. The total walking distance to reach the hotel is approximately 600 meters from the nearest stop.

Airport Shuttle

Shared shuttle services operate on fixed schedules with multiple hotel stops, extending journey times significantly. Limited luggage space and preset departure times may not align with your flight schedule. The nearest drop-off point might require additional walking with your bags.

Taxi Service

While taxis are available at the airport, variable pricing and potential communication barriers can cause uncertainty. Traffic conditions greatly affect the fare, and finding a taxi willing to make the cross-city journey during peak hours can be challenging. Vehicle quality and comfort levels vary considerably.
