The hotel and its location
Luce Suites Taksim offers apartment-style suites on Turna Sokak in the İnönü neighbourhood, part of Istanbul's Taksim and Beyoğlu area. Taksim Square, the Lütfi Kırdar Convention and Exhibition Centre and Maçka Democracy Park are a short walk away, while Teşvikiye Mosque, the Dolmabahçe Clock Tower and İstiklal Avenue are a short drive. Taxim Suites, Nippon Hotel and Barceló Istanbul are among the neighbouring hotels.
Istanbul traffic is heavy for much of the day, and a return to Sabiha Gökçen also means crossing one of the Bosphorus bridges. When you set the pickup time for your return transfer from Luce Suites Taksim, allow extra time so the drive to the airport stays relaxed.
