Transportation Options

Public Transport

Public transportation requires multiple changes, starting with the HAVABUS to Taksim, followed by a walk or additional transport to reach the hotel. This journey typically takes 120-150 minutes, depending on traffic and connection times. Managing luggage through crowded public transport can be challenging, especially during peak hours.

Airport Shuttle

Shuttle services operate on fixed schedules to Taksim Square, requiring additional transportation to reach the hotel. The shared nature of these services means multiple stops and extended journey times, often exceeding 2.5 hours. Limited luggage space and scheduled departures reduce flexibility for travelers.

Taxi

Standard taxis are available at the airport, but prices can vary significantly based on traffic conditions and time of day. The 48.2 km journey crosses multiple districts, and drivers may not be familiar with the exact hotel location in the narrow streets of Beyoglu. Peak hour traffic can significantly impact journey times and costs.
