Maltepe Grant Otel is a city hotel on Orta Meydan Sokağı in the Bağlarbaşı neighbourhood of Maltepe, on Istanbul's Asian side.

Neighbouring hotels include Nest Suit Hotel, Center Inn Hotel and Cevahir Hotel Asia.
The streets around the square can get busy during the day, so your driver will stop at the nearest accessible point to the hotel where the vehicle can pull in safely. At Sabiha Gökçen or Istanbul Airport, the driver meets you with a name sign and helps with your luggage on the way to the car.
