The rooftop terrace had fine views and enjoy the scenery. The staff members were friendly and helpful. The hotel had a great location, with easy access to transportation and main attractions.
The noise level in the reception area was high, especially at night, difficult to sleep. The breakfast lacked freshness and had many pre-packaged and industrial items.

The room was comfortable and serviced daily, a nice touch. The location of the hotel was great as it was close to all the attractions we wanted to see and within walking distance. We also appreciated the airport transfers provided by the hotel.
The rooms were not soundproof, so we could hear conversations from the reception and other guests walking up and down, especially during the wee hours. This made it quite annoying and difficult to get a good night's sleep.

The hotel's location is perfect, as it is very close to all the main sites in Sultanahmet area. You can easily visit the 300 year old Hammam which is just a stone's throw away. it is within walking distance from all the tourist attractions in the area. the hotel is situated away from busy streets, ensuring a quieter environment for the guests.
The breakfast at the hotel was a little disappointing, but it was still sufficient for a small start to the day.

We had a great stay at this hotel! The location was fantastic, as it was close to several tram stations and situated on a quiet street. We loved exploring the cobbled streets nearby and trying out the delicious Turkish food at the local restaurants. The staff provided excellent service and accommodated our request to look after our luggage while we went on a 5-day adventure. The room was spacious and well-appointed, with all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. The hotel also had a lovely terrace where we could enjoy the beautiful views and a delicious breakfast. We highly recommend this place to families looking for a luxurious and comfortable stay in this city.

The room and bathroom were clean and comfortable according to the reviews. The staff was friendly and efficient during check-in.

From the moment I arrived at Agora Life Hotel, I knew I was in for a special experience. The location couldn't have been better, with all the famous historical sites just a short walk away. As I stepped onto the rooftop terrace, I was greeted by a amazing view of Istanbul's iconic landmarks. The traditional breakfast spread was varied and generous, providing a taste of authentic Turkish cuisine. The staff were great too cater to my every need, even arranging airport transfers at fair prices. The room itself was impeccably clean and well-appointed, with high-speed Wi-Fi to keep me connected. Despite a minor issue with the room door lock, the overall luxury and comfort of my stay far outweighed any drawbacks. I highly recommend Agora Life Hotel for an lovely stay in Istanbul.
