HOTEL TRANSFER TIME & DISTANCE
Lokalist Taksim is located in the Beyoğlu, Istanbul area. 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 Taksim Square.
Airport and meeting: Guests flying to Istanbul may land at Istanbul Airport (IST) or at Sabiha Gökçen (SAW). 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. Enter the flight number in full; if you are connecting, the number of the last flight into Türkiye is what is needed. If your flight is a connection, enter the number of the last flight into Türkiye.
At the property: Around Taksim, Galata, Cihangir and Karaköy there are many hotels with the same or similar names; checking by address or street name prevents being sent to the wrong hotel. 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. Taksim Square, with its metro and funicular links, is one of the busiest points in the city; there are few places around the square where cars can stop, so agreeing a meeting point on a side street is easier. Hotel names in Taksim (Taksim, Square, Life and so on) look very alike, so the street name of your hotel is worth putting in the booking. 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. If you have a very early flight, tell the hotel a day ahead; it helps if the property knows about early checkout and breakfast.
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. 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.İstanbul Airport to Lokalist Taksim transfer time
