Private door-to-door transfer · about 59 km, 58 min · one fixed price.
About this transfer
Landing on the Asian side of Istanbul when your hotel is in Fatih means crossing over to the European side. Arranging our Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW) to Ares Hotel Sultanahmet transfer secures a private ride across 59 kilometres without the need to figure out local transit. We track your flight, meet you at the arrivals terminal with a name board, and assist with your luggage.
Our driver follows the Anadolu Otoyolu, completing the journey in about 58 minutes during typical driving conditions. We take you straight to the hotel door, sparing you the effort of dragging heavy suitcases along unfamiliar streets. Because traffic varies across the day, traveling between continents during the evening rush can add extra time to the route.
Using public transport means taking the M4 subway line to Ayrılık Çeşmesi, boarding the B1 Marmaray to Sirkeci Tren Garı, and walking over a kilometre to the destination. That combination takes roughly 88 minutes and requires managing transfers between rail lines while keeping track of your baggage. Although Sultanahmet station on the T1 line is close to the property, the rail network does not provide a direct link from the terminal.
A private transfer is charged at €63 for the vehicle, giving you a dedicated cabin exclusively for your party. Public transport fares apply per person, while our single fixed vehicle rate is shared among everyone traveling together in your group. We manage the driving and navigation through the city, ensuring you arrive at Ares Hotel Sultanahmet ready for your visit.
