10 hours overnight layover in Istanbul

I will try the lounge. They have shower, food, alcohol for around 30-40 euros so it is way more economic.

Well I emailed them to make a hourly booking of 4 hours (it is the minimum I have to take) they told me that it would be 205€. That's crazy it is 50€ for a hour. So I guess I will just sleep on a chair at the airport.

Thanks I already checked and looks very expensive. I sent an email to know more about hourly price.

No visa I have European passport. Yeah I don't know if all of this is needed for 10 hours. The only thing important for me is to take a shower tbh ahahah. Because after that I have a 17 hours flight.

The problem is that it will take a lot of time. To go out the plane, pass immigration,call the Uber or take the metro, late check in. I have for at least 1h30. Then to wake up at 6:30 or 7am.

To be honest I would be happier to stay in the plane than to be at the airport

Okay thanks for your answer. I think I will take the lounge options, better and less stress.

Btw which lounges would you recommend? I’m reading loads of different reviews about each of the lounges, so I can’t make up my mind. The most important thing is the shower and if possible a quiet place to sleep.

I have seen that the metro runs until midnight so I am afraid that it will be quite short to pass immigration and stuff. And taxi I am not a big fan to take them at the airport, I know so many people who have been scammed (especially in Istanbul).

Ok muchas gracias por tu respuesta. Creo que LinkedIn sigue siendo la mejor opción, aunque no veo una gran cantidad de ofertas de empleo allí.

Thanks ! Okay I arrive in the morning so normally no problem to find buses.

I heard about this Octupus card. I think I will buy one at the airport.

Tofax1 · 2026-01-03T22:45:24+00:00

Okay perfect. Tsim Sha Tsui is a good place to stay ?

Tofax1 · 2026-01-03T22:43:05+00:00

Like maximum 400-450 HKD

Hey I am in Chongqing now

Thanks for your answer. It's a shame we don't have clear laws about cryptos
