Staying in Muratpaşa center near the tram
Muratpaşa is also the name of a much larger district, so a hotel described as being here may be nowhere near the central tram stops. For a central stay, locate the address against Muratpaşa station, Şarampol Caddesi and İsmetpaşa. These landmarks help you judge both the airport connection and the walk to the northern entrance of Kaleiçi.
