We stayed in this hotel for five nights. The service was excellent, very personalized with the hotel staff were all very friendly making us feel at home. The Turkish hospitality extended to us was very awesome. The room is pretty small but it was good enough with a stunning view of the Bosphorus from our bed. The breakfast is good... More

Spent 7 nights at the Agora Life Hotel in Istanbul. The location is excellent - just a few minutes walk from all the major sites such as Aya Sofya, Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace, Basilica Cistern and the Grand Bazaar. Of course the price you pay for such a central location is very small room sizes but you probably won't spend... More

We recently had the pleasure of staying three nights at Agora Life Hotel. This is a great little hotel on a small quiet street and very close to all the major tourist sites. The staff is welcoming, helpful and attentive. Breakfast was very good and the terrace views are outstanding. We stayed in the Bosphorous Suite, which had a wonderful... More

The bed was quite comfortable, the water pressure and temperature in the shower was great, and the... More

Wonderfully located, with stunning views from the rooftop (where we breakfasted, and took evening drinks). The staff could not have been more helpful or accommodating. We will be back very soon to Istanbul and Agora Life.

We would come back again in a heartbeat. This lovely boutique hotel has a very helpful and knowledgeable staff led by Kadir. We were upgraded to a suite upon arrival. While our room was being prepared (we arrived at 10:30 am) Kadir lined up a fantastic tour guide to give us a private eight hour tour of the main sites... More
