Beyoğlu is a central district on Istanbul's European side, north of the Golden Horn, with many hotels around Taksim, İstiklal Avenue, Galata and Karaköy. Judging by the map location, the property appears to be around Karaköy. Address on record: Necatibey Caddesi 93.
Airport and meeting: Guests flying to Istanbul may land at Istanbul Airport (IST) or at Sabiha Gökçen (SAW). Before booking, check the airport code on your ticket (IST or SAW); the two airports are on opposite sides of the city, so choosing wrongly costs a lot of time. Traffic in Istanbul varies greatly during the day and between weekdays and weekends, so the journey time cannot be given as one figure and it is wise to leave a margin. If you land late at night or in the early hours, let the hotel reception know your arrival time too; properties often want advance notice for night check-in.
At the property: Many hotels in Beyoğlu are on narrow, sloping, one-way streets, and the driver may drop you at the nearest corner the car can reach rather than at the hotel door. İstiklal Avenue is a pedestrian zone closed to vehicles; hotels near it are approached from side streets or from surrounding roads such as Tarlabaşı and Sıraselviler. That is why it matters which street your hotel entrance is on. In Karaköy the coastal road and the Galata Bridge exit are busy traffic points, while hotels are usually on narrow streets climbing up from the shore. The sloping streets up towards Tünel and Galata are narrow, so the places where a car can drop you may be limited; ask reception for the best point. In the evening and at weekends the roads around Taksim are busy; choosing a pick-up or drop-off point on a side street away from the crowding saves time.
Return transfer: On the return from Beyoğlu to the airport, Istanbul traffic varies a lot by time of day and between weekdays and weekends; plan the pick-up with a wide margin counted back from departure, and if the hotel is on a narrow street, find out the corner where the car will wait and tell the driver. For the return, check on your ticket which airport you fly from (IST or SAW) and plan the pick-up counted back from departure with a wide margin. On the morning of the pick-up, settle checkout beforehand, keep your luggage ready and make sure the phone number on your booking is switched on.
Things to check when booking: the property name and area (Beyoğlu), flight number, number of passengers and bags, a reachable phone number and the arrival or departure date. Properties with the same name also exist in other areas; this page is prepared for Beyoğlu, so make sure you choose the right area when booking.İstanbul Airport to Sun Hotel transfer time
