I have a 12-hour layover in Istanbul Airport. What should I do?
If you're staying airside, use the time to rest, recharge, or reset at YOTELAIR Istanbul Airport. Our airport hotel is located inside the terminal, perfect for a nap, a shower, or a quiet space to work. Got energy to burn? Explore the terminal’s lounges, shops, and dining options.
What is the purpose of having a hotel inside the terminal at Istanbul Airport?
An airport hotel inside the terminal means no buses, no queues, no hassle. YOTELAIR Istanbul Airport gives you a private space within the airside zone—ideal for early departures, late arrivals or long layovers. It’s designed for travellers who move fast and expect comfort without the commute.
Does a layover count as visiting a country?
Technically no. If you stay airside, you haven’t entered the country. You’re in transit, not on holiday. But with YOTELAIR Istanbul Airport located inside the terminal, you’ll still get a taste of Turkish hospitality, minus the passport stamps.
How do I amend a booking made through a third party website?
You will need to contact the company you booked with to make any changes.
What is your standard check-in and check-out time?
No set check-in. No set check-out. Planes don’t clock off, and neither do we. Our crew’s on hand 24/7 to get you in, out, or back to bed.
For overnight stays, 18:00 to 11:00 usually does the trick. Rest, then take off. For stays by the hour, please get in touch via email here.
Any booking between the hours of 18:00 and 11:00 the next morning are charged at the same rate, so relax and lie in (if your flight allows!)
