Menalo Premium Hotel, Istanbul Airport.

If you are looking for some options when it comes to hotels nearby Istanbul Airport for your transit or you want to be close to the airport the night before your flight then Menalo is definitely in the list since it is 10-15 mins drive.

Please remember that this hotel is isolated and far away from the main city so either you arrange a shuttle from the hotel or you can take a taxi from the airport “always check if the taximeter is reset and switched on, keep cash with you since not all use credit/debit card and use your google map to make sure they are using the right route and not making unnecessary turns”.

Two of the known taxi apps in Istanbul are BiTaksi and ITaksi if you want to book in advance.

There was a small store to buy some essentials outside the hotel if you want to get some snacks and avoid using the mini bar.

The staff are friendly and helpful. Most of them knew English and the room service brought the food that I ordered in 20 minutes.
