Transportation Options

Public Transport

Reaching MaCity Hotel from Istanbul Airport via public transportation requires multiple transfers. The journey involves taking the IST-7 airport bus to Yenikapı, crossing to the Asian side via Marmaray, and then using local buses or metro to Maltepe. This complex route typically takes 2-2.5 hours and can be challenging with luggage, especially during peak hours.

Airport Shuttle

Shared airport shuttles to Maltepe are available but operate on fixed schedules with multiple stops along the route. The service requires advance booking and may take up to 3 hours depending on traffic and other passenger drop-offs. Limited luggage capacity and rigid departure times can make this option less convenient for hotel guests.

Taxi

Traditional taxis offer direct transport but present several challenges. The long distance from Istanbul Airport to Maltepe means fares can be quite high and may vary significantly based on traffic conditions. During peak hours, the journey can take up to 2 hours, and finding a taxi willing to make the cross-city journey isn't always guaranteed.
