The hotel and its location
Point Hotel Barbaros is a city hotel in Esentepe, between Zincirlikuyu and the Levent business district on Istanbul's European side. Zorlu Center and Zincirlikuyu Mosque are a few minutes' walk away, while Mecidiyeköy Square, Cevahir Shopping Mall, Levent Park and Yıldız Palace are each a short drive. Neighbouring hotels include Renaissance Istanbul Polat Bosphorus Hotel, Febor Park İstanbul Levent Hotel and Avantgarde Hotel Taksim.
The hotel is close to the Zincirlikuyu junction, where traffic builds up quickly, and a return to Sabiha Gökçen means crossing one of the Bosphorus bridges. Allow extra time for the trip back to the airport, especially at rush hour, and set the pickup with a comfortable margin before check-in closes.
