Hotel Ruby is located in the Taksim, Istanbul area. Taksim is a busy hotel and transport area around Taksim Square on Istanbul's European side; İstiklal Avenue starts here. Airport and meeting: Istanbul has two major airports: Istanbul Airport (IST) on the European side and Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW) on the Asian side. 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: 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. 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. 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. Settle any extra bills and hand in keys or cards before leaving the hotel, so that last-minute delays do not affect the pick-up time. In short: the right airport, the right property name and area, the right flight number, a reachable phone. If these four are correct, the rest of the transfer usually goes smoothly. The property's full address is not in our records; writing the address the hotel gave you, or its Google Maps location, in the booking notes makes the driver's job easier.

01Which airport should I choose for Hotel Ruby?+

Istanbul has two airports: Istanbul Airport (IST) on the European side and Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) on the Asian side. Choose the airport code on your ticket when booking; as the two are on different sides of the city, choosing wrongly changes the transfer completely.

02Can the transfer vehicle come up to the entrance of Hotel Ruby?+

Because of narrow, sloping, one-way streets the car in Beyoğlu usually comes to the nearest suitable corner rather than the hotel door; İstiklal Avenue itself is closed to vehicles. Entrance arrangements differ from property to property; if in doubt, confirm with reception before booking.

03What details should I enter when booking?+

The property name and area (Taksim), flight number (the last flight if connecting), number of passengers and bags, a reachable phone number (with country code) and the arrival or departure date. Write the passenger name exactly as in the passport.

04How should I set the pick-up time for the return transfer from Hotel Ruby?+

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. Settle any extra bills and hand in keys or cards before leaving the hotel, so that last-minute delays do not affect the pick-up time.

05How long does the transfer take?+

It varies with the airport, the exact location of the property, the time of day and seasonal traffic, so we do not give a fixed time here. For accurate information look at the route and date you choose in the booking step, and leave a traffic margin when planning the pick-up.

06What should I do if the hotel's address is not on record?+

The property's full address is not in our records; writing the address the hotel gave you, or its Google Maps location, in the booking notes makes the driver's job easier.
