Holiday Inn Istanbul Airport is a city hotel on Basın Ekspres Caddesi in Halkalı Merkez, along the business and shopping corridor north of the old Atatürk Airport. Several outlet malls, including Deposite Outlet Mall, as well as Airport Shopping Mall and Küçükçekmece Square are a short drive away. Hilton Garden Inn Istanbul Atatürk Airport is a few minutes' walk from here, and King City Hotel & Spa is a short drive away.
Plan the return with Istanbul traffic in mind: Basın Ekspres and the ring roads can slow down at busy hours, and a trip to Sabiha Gökçen also means crossing a Bosphorus bridge. Allow extra time when you choose the pick-up time for your return transfer.
