Planning Your Stay and Recovery Time in Istanbul
Good planning makes the non-medical part of your trip calmer. Here is what to think about when arranging your stay in Istanbul.
Length of stay
How long you should stay depends on your treatment and is decided by your healthcare provider. Book flights only after the provider has confirmed your dates, and choose flexible tickets where you can.
Where to stay
Choose accommodation close to the hospital or clinic, with a quiet room, step-free access and room service. We suggest options that suit your appointment schedule.
Getting around
Pre-arranged airport and appointment transfers mean you don't need to find your way around a new city when you may be tired.
Bringing a companion
Many patients travel with a friend or family member. Let us know early so accommodation and transfers can be planned for two.
What to pack
- Passport and travel insurance documents
- A list of the medicines you currently take
- Copies of relevant medical reports
- Comfortable, loose clothing
- A UK plug adapter and phone charger
Before you fly home
Make sure you have your discharge report and aftercare instructions from the provider, and that you know who to contact if you have questions later.
