The Green Parrot Hotel Istanbul enjoys a prime location in the historic Fatih district, situated in the heart of Istanbul's Old City. The hotel's position in the Hobyar neighborhood provides guests with exceptional access to the city's most renowned historical attractions. The journey from Sabiha Gokcen International Airport crosses the Asian side of Istanbul, offering scenic views as you travel across the Bosphorus Bridge to reach the European shore.
The 45.9-kilometer route typically takes between 50-80 minutes, depending on traffic conditions. The journey starts on the modern highway system from Sabiha Gokcen Airport, continuing through the developing Asian districts before crossing the iconic Bosphorus Bridge. The final stretch navigates through the historic peninsula, passing by numerous Byzantine and Ottoman landmarks before reaching the hotel.
Public transportation from Sabiha Gokcen Airport requires multiple transfers. You'll need to take the HAVABUS to Kadıköy, followed by a ferry crossing and tram connection. This journey can take up to 2.5 hours and involves managing luggage through various transport changes, which can be challenging with heavy bags.
Shared shuttle services operate on fixed schedules with multiple hotel stops along the route. While more economical than private options, the journey time can extend significantly due to other passenger pickups and drop-offs. Advanced booking is required, and services may be limited during early morning or late night hours.
Regular taxis are available at the airport, but prices can vary significantly based on traffic conditions and time of day. Language barriers may present challenges, and the long cross-city journey often leads to concerns about route choices and final pricing. During peak hours, finding an available taxi willing to make the cross-bridge journey can be difficult.
