District and hotels

Uskudar is a beautiful district in the Asian side of Istanbul city. If you want to have a fabulous view from Bosphorus, Maiden Tower ( Kiz Kulesi ) you must come to Uskudar. There are lots of hotels in these two districts but here are some of the best ones.

• Address Istanbul
• Bosphorus Palace Hotel
• Dedeman Bostancı Istanbul Hotel & Convention Center
• DoubleTree by Hilton Istanbul - Moda
• Hilton Istanbul Kozyatagi
• Samahan On The Water

If you are coming to Istanbul to have a longer stay and need to be in a more local, not touristic area, we suggest you to get your accommodation in Kadikoy or Uskudar. Here you can walk 

Airport Transfer Duration

From Istanbul New Airport (IST) : It takes about one hour normally to get from Istanbul New Airport to Kadikoy. Just if your flight lands in the evening times could take more than one hour and a half, But the high-risk time is when you have your return to the airport in the weekdays and your flight is in the morning around 10 or 11. In these situations it can take even more than one hour and a half. 

From Sabiha Gokcen Airport (SAW) : Normally it takes even less than one hour to reach the airport or from the airport to your destination in these districts . But just be careful when your return flight is in the evenings, there could be lots of traffic towards the Sabiha Airport in the evenings and it can take one hour and half to reach the airport.

The fare price to get your airport transfer to/from Istanbul New Airport (IST) to your destination in these districts would be something between 40 and 50 euro.
