Petrion Hotel enjoys a strategic location in the historic Fatih district of Istanbul, nestled in an area rich with Byzantine and Ottoman heritage. Situated near the ancient city walls, the hotel provides easy access to major landmarks including the Chora Church, Fener Greek Orthodox Patriarchate, and the vibrant Balat neighborhood. The journey from Sabiha Gokcen Airport crosses the Asian side of Istanbul, offering stunning views of the Bosphorus during the bridge crossing before entering the historic peninsula.
Public transportation from Sabiha Gokcen Airport to Petrion Hotel requires multiple transfers. Start with the HAVABUS to Kadıköy, then take a ferry to Eminönü, followed by either a bus or tram to Fatih. This journey typically takes 2.5-3 hours, depending on connection times and traffic. Managing luggage through multiple transfers can be challenging, especially during peak hours.
Shared shuttle services operate from Sabiha Gokcen Airport but don't offer direct routes to Fatih. You'll need to disembark at a central location and arrange additional transportation to reach Petrion Hotel. The multiple stops and fixed schedule can extend your journey time significantly, often exceeding 3 hours.
While taxis are available at Sabiha Gokcen Airport, the long-distance journey to Fatih can be costly with variable pricing based on traffic conditions. During peak hours, the trip may take over 2 hours, and communication barriers can lead to route confusion. Finding a taxi for the return journey in the historic district can be challenging during busy periods.
