Hi Everyone,
I did a search on this topic but the most recent post I could find was a couple years old so I'm hoping some of you could recommend a hotel close to the airport that offers a private transfer. I know Yotel is the only hotel in the airport but it's pricey and I don't have to be at the airport until 11 a.m. so I'm hoping to find a hotel nearby and at a lower cost but with private transfer. Any recommendations would be appreciated!
What airport?
Sorry, yes Istanbul airport on the European side
As I recall you're doing the Best of Turkey tour, correct? So are you flying from Izmir to Istanbul and have one night there before you return home?
These posts are not that old and have some suggestions. Or you might try TripAdvisor for ideas.
