The Laila Hotel is located in the Binbirdirek / Sultanahmet, Istanbul area. Binbirdirek is in the Fatih district, on the historic peninsula close to Sultanahmet Square and Hagia Sophia. Airport and meeting: Guests flying to Istanbul may land at Istanbul Airport (IST) or at Sabiha Gökçen (SAW). 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. Enter your phone number with the country code and make sure it will be switched on when you land; contact may be needed at the meeting. At the property: Sultanahmet Square and the streets around it are pedestrianised or closed to vehicles, so for most hotels here the car may not reach the door and the driver may drop you at the nearest suitable point. Around Binbirdirek the hotels are spread over narrow streets such as Divanyolu Caddesi and Dizdariye Çeşmesi Sokağı; putting the street name in the booking makes it easier for the driver to find the right entrance. The T1 tram line runs through the area, so vehicle traffic may be restricted on some streets; the safest approach is to agree with hotel reception where the car can drop you. Return transfer: On the return from Sultanahmet to the airport, Istanbul traffic varies a lot during the day; plan the pick-up with a wide margin counted back from departure, and ask reception for the nearest vehicle point 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 (Binbirdirek / Sultanahmet), 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.
