Elite World Grand İstanbul Küçükyalı
Elite World Grand Istanbul Küçükyalı is a hotel in the Maltepe district on the Asian side of Istanbul, situated along the coast of the Sea of Marmara. The property has rooms in several categories, including units facing the sea, along with meeting and event spaces for larger groups.
Maltepe was long a low-key coastal neighborhood on Istanbul's Asian side before growing into a more developed area over recent decades. The hotel is part of the Elite World Hotels group, a Turkish chain that expanded across the country from the 2000s onward.
Küçükyalı means 'small shoreline' in Turkish, and the area around the hotel reflects this coastal character with views over the Sea of Marmara. The Asian side of Istanbul generally feels more residential and slower-paced than the European side, which visitors tend to notice when walking the nearby streets.
The hotel sits along the coastal road in Maltepe, making it easy to orient yourself with the sea on one side. Public transport toward the city center runs nearby, and taking a ferry from a nearby pier is another way to reach the European side of Istanbul.
The hotel has a Turkish bath on site, which is not standard in most hotels of this type. A Turkish bath follows a specific ritual of steam, scrubbing, and a foam massage that is quite different from a regular spa treatment.
