Nova Plaza Prime Hotel is a city hotel on Taşocağı Yolu Caddesi in Mahmutbey, Bağcılar, on Istanbul's west side. Deposite Outlet Mall is a short drive away, and Misstanbul Shopping Mall, Başak Center Mall and the historic Hasanderesi Bridge are also easy to reach by car. Clarion Hotel Istanbul Mahmutbey and Hilton Mall of Istanbul are a few minutes' walk away, with TRYP by Wyndham Istanbul Basın Ekspres a little further on.
Istanbul traffic can build up quickly and unpredictably, so plan your return transfer with a generous buffer. Work backwards from your departure time and leave extra room for the drive; if you are flying out of Sabiha Gökçen, remember that the route crosses a Bosphorus bridge. Both airport prices are listed on this page.
