Saray is located in the Bağcılar, Istanbul area. Bağcılar is a densely populated inland district on Istanbul's European side. Address on record: Cesme sokak, Bağcılar, Istanbul. Airport and meeting: Istanbul has two major airports: Istanbul Airport (IST) on the European side and Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW) on the Asian side. Enter the flight number in full; if you are connecting, the number of the last flight into Türkiye is what is needed. 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. If your flight is a connection, enter the number of the last flight into Türkiye. At the property: In this part of Istanbul's European side hotels are usually close to main arteries such as the E-5 (D100), the TEM and the coastal road; knowing which street your hotel faces helps the driver find the right entrance. Addresses are usually given by street name and building number; putting the street name and number in the booking saves the driver time. From the western districts Istanbul Airport (IST) and Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) lie in different directions, and SAW needs a Bosphorus crossing. Choosing the right airport in the booking decides the time plan. Return transfer: On the return from the western districts, traffic on the E-5 and TEM varies a lot during the day; plan the pick-up with a wide margin counted back from departure and agree beforehand where the car will wait on busy streets. 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. On the morning of the pick-up, settle checkout beforehand, keep your luggage ready and make sure the phone number on your booking is switched on. Things to check when booking: the property name and area (Bağcılar), flight number, number of passengers and bags, a reachable phone number and the arrival or departure date. The name is short and common, so it is easy to mix up; verify by address or map location, not only by name.
