Private door-to-door transfer · about 47 km, 47 min · one fixed price.
About this transfer
Landing on the Asian side when your accommodation is in Zeytinburnu places you on the opposite side of Istanbul from your final destination. Our Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW) to Novotel Zeytinburnu transfer meets you directly at the terminal exit and takes your group across to the European side. The complete road journey covers 47 kilometres along the Anadolu Otoyolu, providing a reliable and direct route between the airport and your hotel.
In typical driving conditions, the journey takes 47 minutes, bringing you straight to the door without any intermediate stops or detours. We track your flight arrival automatically, greet you with a personal name board in the arrivals hall, and assist with all your bags. The private transfer starts at €53 for the entire vehicle, giving up to seven passengers a coordinated and comfortable journey together.
Travelling by public transport requires boarding the M4 metro line at the airport, riding to Ayrılık Çeşmesi, and transferring onto the Marmaray rail line. That transit journey takes 97 minutes in total and concludes with a walking section from Zeytinburnu station to reach the hotel entrance. Navigating stairs, ticketing gates, and multiple train platforms with heavy suitcases adds extra physical effort and delays to your arrival.
Our private vehicle service keeps your entire party together from the moment you leave the arrivals hall until you pull up outside the lobby. Our driver manages the cross-city drive so you can reach your destination without any rail transfers or street walking with luggage. You step out directly at Novotel Zeytinburnu in the district of Zeytinburnu, ready to check into your room.
