HOTEL TRANSFER TIME & DISTANCE
Your stay at Vardar Palace will be 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). 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: 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. 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. 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.
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. 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 (Beyoğlu), flight number, number of passengers and bags, a reachable phone number and the arrival or departure date. There is no clear address on record for this property on our page; we suggest adding the current address from reception or the map location to your booking notes.İstanbul Airport to Vardar Palace transfer time
