The Halich Hotel Istanbul Karakoy

The Halich Hotel Istanbul Karakoy sits on Tersane Caddesi, a five-minute walk from the Golden Horn ferry piers.

From either Istanbul Airport or Sabiha Gokcen Airport, the do-it-yourself options are a taxi with a meter that can jump unpredictably in traffic, a route mixing the M2 metro, a tram change at Karaköy, and a walk with suitcases over uneven pavement, or a shared shuttle stopping at other hotels before yours. City Transfer Turkey instead locks in one price ahead of time, tracks both flights for delays, and has a driver meet you at arrivals with a name board for a ride straight to the hotel door — quicker and less stressful than any of those alternatives, and considerably easier with an English-speaking driver handling directions instead of you.

Vehicles range from a comfortable sedan for two up to a spacious VIP minivan for a larger group, each with a licensed, professional driver for a safe and comfortable ride. The same booking covers a private transfer to the Grand Bazaar, an Istanbul airport transfer at the end of the stay, or any other Istanbul transfer squeezed in between.

The Halich Hotel Istanbul Karakoy is only a Karakoy airport transfer away, and City Transfer Turkey treats that ride as seriously as any of its others.
