Transportation Options

Public Transport

Reaching Historic Galata Hotel from Sabiha Gokcen Airport via public transportation requires multiple transfers. The journey starts with the HAVABUS to Taksim Square, followed by either a walk or short taxi ride to the hotel. This option typically takes 100-120 minutes, depending on traffic conditions. While economical, managing luggage through busy public transport can be challenging, especially during peak hours.

Airport Shuttle

Shared shuttle services operate from Sabiha Gokcen Airport but require advance booking and operate on fixed schedules. The journey includes multiple hotel stops, potentially extending travel time to over 2 hours. Limited luggage space and irregular departure times can make this option less convenient for travelers arriving with multiple bags or during off-peak hours.

Taxi

Traditional yellow taxis are available at Sabiha Gokcen Airport, but journey times and costs can vary significantly depending on traffic conditions and the driver's chosen route. The 44.4 km journey typically takes 60-90 minutes, with prices fluctuating based on time of day and traffic situation. During peak hours, finding an available taxi can be challenging.
