Istanbul Airport (IST) to Renaissance Polat İstanbul Hotel transfer
Private door-to-door transfer · about 51 km, 46 min · one fixed price.
About this transfer
Landing on the European side of the city and heading to Bakırköy means travelling about 51 km south from the terminal. Booking our Istanbul Airport (IST) to Renaissance Polat İstanbul Hotel transfer gets you out of the arrivals hall without delay. We meet you outside with a name board and assist with your luggage.
Our driver takes the Kuzey Marmara Otoyolu to bring you directly to the hotel entrance. When traffic is clear, the drive takes 46 minutes, though morning rush hour can add several minutes to the journey. We track your flight beforehand, so your pickup time automatically adjusts if your landing is delayed.
Reaching the property by rail requires boarding the M11 subway to Halkalı, then changing onto the B1 Marmaray line toward Yeşilyurt. From that stop, you still have a walk carrying your bags before reaching the lobby. Rail tickets are charged individually for each passenger.
A private vehicle keeps your group together throughout the entire trip. We offer a fixed vehicle rate starting from €47, which splits into €12 per person if four of you travel together. We take care of the driving so you can settle in immediately.
