Transportation Options

Public Transport

Public transportation from Sabiha Gokcen Airport involves multiple transfers, starting with the HAVABUS to Kadıköy, followed by a ferry crossing and tram service to Fatih. This journey 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 with multiple hotel stops, extending journey times significantly. While more economical than private options, they offer limited flexibility with schedules and require advance booking. The service may not accommodate early morning or late-night flights effectively.

Taxi Service

Standard taxis are available at the airport, but journey costs can vary significantly based on traffic conditions and time of day. During peak hours, the trip can take up to 2 hours. Language barriers and unfamiliarity with the hotel's location in the narrow streets of Fatih may present additional challenges.
