This hotel provides modern and clean rooms, together with easy access to Istanbul Airport.
Pilot Hotel is behind Istanbul Airport, some 7 km away. It is located 56 km from the Old Town area of Sultanahmet. It organizes airport shuttles to and from the airport at a high extra cost. You cannot reach the property using public transport from the airport but taxis will happily take you there.
The location is nice enough, on a high hill with a great view of the airport. The hotel is small and compact, which is its charm. It is family-operated, so you will get a unique treatment. The staff speaks good English.
Each room comes with a desk, a flat-screen TV, and a wardrobe. The private bathroom is equipped with a shower, free toiletries, and a hairdryer. The rooms are big, clean, and soundproof but not all have a window.
There are some shops and restaurants within walking distance but in general, the small village where the hotel is is quiet and uneventful.
Breakfast in the morning is very simple and has only the essentials - bread, spreads, coffee/tea, and minimal fruits.
Pilot Hotel is a great budget hotel very near the new Istanbul Airport, perfect for a quick night of stay during a layover.

Popularhotels Lobby Talk brings you exclusive insights straight from the hotel staff. We've asked a number of carefully selected questions directly to the hotel team.
You find the airport parking just two minutes from the hotel.
We serve a Turkish breakfast on a plate for 10 Euros. It includes for example omelet, cheese and bread.
We have shuttle services and you decide when you want to be picked up from the airport and also when you want to leave the hotel to the airport. Price is 50 Euros per person and includes two ways.
To visit restaurants it's five minutes by car or ten minutes walking. We can also assist you and call a courier to bring the food to the hotel. You just say what kind of meal you want and our courier brings the food to you.
These questions were asked in November 2024 and may be translated to English and partially summarized. The information may have changed since then, so please verify any important details directly with the hotel.
The staff was helpful and arranged for a cab to the airport when I was leaving for my flight home. Room was clean and comfortable and I liked that there was coffee in the room. It was also nice for the price I paid.
