Asia City Hotel Istanbul is a 4-star boutique hotel with 87 rooms located in the Ataşehir district on Istanbul's Asian side, just 5 minutes on foot from Estethica clinic — the official Biohactour partner for hair transplantation.
All-inclusive package from Biohactour: hair transplant surgery — Sapphire FUE from €1,490 or Multi Implanter DHI from €1,640 — plus €230 all-inclusive add-on: 2 nights / 3 days at Asia City Hotel 4★, daily breakfast, and all airport transfers (IST ↔ hotel ↔ IST).

Biohactour (Saodat Turizm, TÜRSAB A-14433) is the official partner of Estethica for clients from Russia, the CIS, and international markets — providing contracted prices lower than the clinic's official rates. Asia City Hotel ratings: 7.7 / 10 on Booking.com (141 reviews), 7.9 / 10 on Trivago (1,531 ratings). Distance to Istanbul Airport (IST): 30 km, approx. 1 hour (transfer included in the package).

🏨 Asia City Hotel Istanbul — Quick Verdict
Asia City Hotel Istanbul is a functional city hotel in the business district of Ataşehir. There is no pool, no spa, no entertainment programme. That is by design. The hotel serves one purpose well: quiet, clean, comfortable accommodation for people who come to Istanbul with a specific goal. For Biohactour clients, that goal is a hair transplant at Estethica.
The hotel delivers exactly what post-surgery recovery requires — minimal movement, room service around the clock, and a 5-minute walk to the clinic instead of a taxi ride with a freshly operated scalp.

Why Book Through Biohactour Rather Than Directly?
As an official partner, Biohactour holds a direct contract with Estethica that provides rates below the clinic's publicly listed prices. Clients also receive a dedicated English-speaking coordinator from the moment they land in Istanbul, a confirmed date without waiting lists, and a fixed quoted price with no surprises. Independent booking would cost approximately €50–80 more in transport alone, without the coordination support.
📍 Location and How to Get There
Ataşehir is a modern business district on Istanbul's Asian side. It is not a tourist neighbourhood — there are no historic mosques or bazaars within walking distance. What it does have is a well-developed infrastructure: shopping centres, restaurants, and some of Istanbul's leading medical facilities. For Estethica patients, that is the only infrastructure that matters.
Distances
• Estethica Ataşehir clinic — 5 minutes on foot
• Memorial Ataşehir Hospital — 2 minutes on foot
• Istanbul Airport (IST) — 30 km, approx. 1 hour (included in package)
• Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW) — 19 km, 25–30 minutes
• Palladium Shopping Mall — 10 minutes on foot
• Bağdat Avenue (restaurants, brand stores) — 5 km
• Nearest bus stop — 90 m from the entrance
• Istanbul historic centre — 14 km
Getting There
Most international flights arrive at Istanbul Airport (IST). Distance to the hotel: 30 km, approximately 1 hour depending on traffic. With the Biohactour all-inclusive package (+€230), a coordinator meets you at arrivals with a name board and drives you directly to Asia City Hotel. No need to navigate apps or queue for taxis after a long flight.
🛏️ Rooms — Which Room to Choose
The hotel has 87 rooms across several categories. All rooms include air conditioning, LCD TV, hairdryer, shower, kettle, complimentary mini-bar, and a safe at reception. Wi-Fi is free throughout the property.
Standard Single: approx. 10–12 m², queen-size bed. Suitable for a patient travelling alone.
Standard Double: for a patient with one companion. Rooms on upper floors are larger and quieter — worth requesting.
Triple / Family Room: accommodates up to 5 guests, with a separate living area. Request at time of booking.
Non-smoking rooms: essential to specify at booking — some rooms are smoking by default.
💡 Practical tip for patients: after surgery the scalp is sensitive and the head will be bandaged. Request a non-smoking room and ask about bed height. The orthopaedic pillow (included in the Estethica package) will be with you from the clinic.
🍽️ Dining
Breakfast buffet is included in the room rate. Hot dishes, cold options, pastries — sufficient for a recovery morning without leaving the building. On day one after surgery, this matters.
The à la carte restaurant serves lunch and dinner — Turkish and international cuisine. 24/7 room service is available throughout the stay. The lobby bar operates during the day. A dietary menu can be requested at check-in.
Palladium Shopping Mall with a food court is a 10-minute walk away. Several Turkish restaurants are directly adjacent to the hotel — practical for days two and three when mobility returns.
📅 Your 3 Days in Istanbul: How the Schedule Works
The standard Biohactour programme is 3 days / 2 nights. Surgery takes 6–8 hours and is completed in a single day. Here is how it works in practice:
Day 1: Arrive at Istanbul Airport (IST) → Biohactour transfer → check in to Asia City Hotel → online or in-person pre-op consultation with Estethica doctor → rest.
Day 2: Breakfast at hotel → 5-minute walk to Estethica → surgery (6–8 hours, Sapphire FUE or DHI) → return to hotel → rest, room service, orthopaedic pillow.
Day 3: Breakfast → professional scalp wash at Estethica (5 min walk) → receive post-op care kit → Biohactour transfer → Istanbul Airport → flight home.
The hotel's role in this schedule is clear: a quiet base between two short walks to the clinic. No taxis, no navigation, no unnecessary effort while recovering.

💰 Pricing and How to Book
Independent Booking vs Biohactour Package

🔬 About Estethica: Why Istanbul for Hair Transplantation?
Turkey performs more hair transplant procedures than any other country in the world. Istanbul alone accounts for a significant share of global medical tourism in this segment — the combination of experienced surgeons, competitive pricing, and JCI-accredited facilities is difficult to match elsewhere.
Estethica (Ethica Health Group) operates four medical centres in Istanbul. The Ataşehir centre, opened in 2010, specialises in aesthetic surgery and hair transplantation. In 2014, Estethica became the first clinic in Turkey to receive Class-A surgical centre status. JCI accreditation confirms compliance with international patient safety standards. Over 28,000 procedures performed to date.
Methods Available at Estethica
Sapphire FUE: sapphire blades create micro-incisions for faster healing and minimal scarring. Best for large areas — crown, frontal hairline, temples. From €1,490.
Multi Implanter DHI: direct implantation without pre-made incisions — higher density, no full shaving required. Ideal for localised areas (temples, beard, hairline) and women. From €1,640.
Both methods are performed without a graft limit. Recovery timeline: visible growth from 3–4 months, full result assessed at 12–18 months. Lifetime guarantee on graft survival rate (90–98%).
✅ Should You Choose Asia City Hotel for Your Hair Transplant Stay?
Asia City Hotel Istanbul is not a leisure hotel. It is a logistical component of a well-organised medical trip. Five minutes on foot to Estethica, airport transfers included in the package, breakfast without leaving the building on day one after surgery, and an English-speaking coordinator from landing to departure.
Biohactour (Saodat Turizm, TÜRSAB A-14433) is the official partner of Estethica for international clients. Free consultation by photo, method selection within 45 minutes, fixed price with no hidden charges.

Why are Biohactour prices lower than Estethica's official website rates?

Transfer from IST is included in the Biohactour package. Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW) is closer at 19 km but has fewer international routes.
Is the procedure painful?
No. Estethica uses needle-free anaesthesia combined with sedation. Patients feel nothing during the 6–8 hour procedure and typically watch films or sleep. Pain score reported by 2026 patients: 0/10 during surgery. Mild soreness in the donor area for 2–3 days post-procedure is normal.
How many days do I need to spend in Istanbul?
The standard programme is 3 days / 2 nights: Day 1 — arrival and consultation; Day 2 — surgery; Day 3 — scalp wash at clinic, receive care kit, departure. Some clients extend to 4–5 days to combine their visit with sightseeing. Istanbul's historic centre is 14 km from the hotel and easily reached by metro.
Can women have a hair transplant at Estethica?
Yes. The Multi Implanter DHI method does not require full head shaving, making it well-suited for women experiencing localised hair thinning or a receding hairline. Estethica has a dedicated women's transplant programme. Biohactour can arrange a free photo-based assessment to determine suitability.
What is the graft survival rate at Estethica?
Estethica reports a graft survival rate of 90–98% across procedures. A lifetime guarantee is issued with a certificate: if the survival rate falls below the guaranteed threshold, the procedure is repeated at no charge. Over 28,000 completed operations support this track record.
How do I request a free consultation?
Send photos of your scalp (top, back, both sides) via WhatsApp to +90 532 679 90 57. An English-speaking Biohactour coordinator will provide a free assessment within 45 minutes — including recommended method, estimated graft count, and package pricing. No obligation.
Is there anything I need to do before flying to Istanbul for surgery?
Estethica requires a pre-operative blood panel (can be done at the clinic on arrival or sent in advance). Stop blood-thinning medications (aspirin, ibuprofen) at least 7 days before surgery — your coordinator will send a full preparation checklist after booking. Alcohol: avoid for 1 week before. Smoking: minimise for 2 weeks before and after.
