Reviews

Breakfast could’ve had some more options but overall perfectly acceptable. Loved being able to eat on the beautiful terrace Seems like an older building so you have to accept some things like shower not perfectly free of mold
-
I like the location. It was around a lot of restaurants, a lot of stores, and also near the mosque. The breakfast.
-
Location. Stuff.
-
Fabulous location in the old town and near restaurants and everything! Very helpful staff. I can’t say enough about how they helped me in an emergency. Also the view was outstanding. Breakfast was in the basement so, not a great space but, it was a fine breakfast.
-
Location is spot on for all the main sites in Istanbul, staff were brilliant, very informative and helpful in all aspects of your stay and would recommend this hotel, we didnt use the terrace as weather was not on our side, but we had a quick look and the views were excellent. Rooms are cleaned every day and very clean, and staff will recommend places to go and eat which is very helpful

The location is great, only 3 min walking to Hagia Sophia and Basilica Cistern. The staff was also very nice. They let check in early since we arrived in the hotel at 7 AM. The room is small than as advertised. It’s 20 M2 not 25 M2.

As is customary, Turkish hospitality is one of the best and Agora Life maintained the highest standards regarding cleanliness, comfort and superior customer service. The location, proximity to historical sites and access to to a variety of food options made my stay comfortable. Property went beyond the basic requests to ensure my comfort.

Good location. Comfortable room. Breakfast. Great views from rooftop terrace (although it was too cool/rainy to eat breakfast there) Not close to the metro.
-
It is all about the Location. Cannot get a better location. Just 5 min walking from Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque. I upgraded my room to get an excellent view of Hagia Sophia. The walk to the mosque is a straight path and no uphill climbing. The staff (Isa) took very good care of us and arranged the Airport shuttle and answered all our questions diligently. The breakfast spread was delicious. No complaints.

dirty and lots of mosquitos

This was a good sized suite room, with double sinks in large bathroom, comfortable beds, ample closet space for a long stay, and quiet neighborhood. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly at all times, whether in sightseeing, food recommendations, parking, or medical needs. Breakfast was very good, with eggs cooked to order as well as a full buffet. The view from our suite room looked over the Bosphorus, Haya Sophia, and Topkapi - it was the same as the rooftop view, which is a special experience for staying at the hotel, wondrous during the day (one could bring breakfast up there) or night. Set slightly apart from the expensive area around Topkapi, etc, the location felt a bit more local, with a well stocked supermarket and produce market, plus good restaurants. It was an easy walk to the major sites in Istanbul, including the Grand Bazaar. The suite furniture is a bit worn in look, with water stains, but that did not bother us or affect the usability of everything.

Location is excellent, walking distance to everything, superb staff beginning with Isa at the front desk who appears to manage everything. He was professional, exceptionally helpful, friendly. Omer, Gokhan and Yasin were also superb at what they do. Agora hires good people. We enjoyed interacting with them all. Breakfast was good, coffee very good, and run well by two women who I think also handle housekeeping. The bed was comfortable. Hotel is clean, quiet, comfortable. The rooftop terrace is wonderful - the views are outstanding and we relaxed up there each night. In June about 8:45 Call to Prayer from every direction echoed for a little while and was beautiful. The staff at this hotel do everything they can to make your stay great. We recommend Agora Life Hotel - Special Class.
