The staff were ever so sweet and helpful when approached. The hotel is a 4 star hotel and not so extravagant but what i really appreciate the most is that everything you need was there like the smallest of things like cotton buds and slippers, which you probably woudnt get from other 4 star hotels. The hospitality from front staff to back office staff was so friendly. Breakfast could be better as it was the same cold breakfast everyday. Location was perfect as it was walking distance from most of the tourist sites and even more bonus, only 10 minutes away from the local tram! Thank you for making our stay wonderful Agora Life Hotel. ##### Khadija Stayed 5 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christine 18 Oct 2024 Loved old doors and courtyard and the elevator. ##### Christine Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Xiaomeng 22 Feb 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The best of this hotel is the location and the stunning view from the window.

We particularly enjoyed both our private little deck, and the rooftop observation deck, which provided stunning 360-degree views of the city. The hotel is excellently situated, within walking distance to all attractions, and the staff seemed sincerely eager to help out with whatever we might need. ##### Cynthia Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shefki 11 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful people working there friendly helpful great and amazing thank you ##### Shefki Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### jin Young 10 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The room had a spectacular view of the Bosphorus Stait, the Bosphorus Bridge and the Galatea Tower among others.

The view from the rooftop deck was perfection!! Breakfasts were very good. It is a very short walk to the most important major places to see (Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Basilica Cistern, Grand Bazaar, Egyptian/Spice Bazaar, several museums, etc). Easily walkable to restaurants & shops. Staff helped us take the train which was nearby. We also walked down & were able to hop on a boat to take a 1.5 hr tour on the Bosphorus. ##### Wendy Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Wyndham Grand Istanbul Kalamis Marina Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Wyndham-Grand-Istanbul-Kalamis-Marina-Hotel.h5484206.Hotel-Information) > > [Sofitel Istanbul Taksim](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Sofitel-Istanbul-Taksim.h42400472.Hotel-Information) > > [Barcelo Istanbul](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Barcelo-Istanbul.h32516024.Hotel-Information) > > [Swissotel The Bosphorus Istanbul](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Swissotel-The-Bosphorus-Istanbul.h889869.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza Istanbul - Old City by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Istanbul-Old-City.h2211742.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Hotel President Old Town Istanbul](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Radisson-President-Beyazit-Istanbul.h9345.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Hotel Istanbul at the Bosphorus](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Hotel-Istanbul-At-The-Bosphorus.h1856092.Hotel-Information) > > [The St. Regis Istanbul](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-The-St-Regis-Istanbul.h9719651.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt Istanbul](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-Istanbul.h14428.Hotel-Information) > > [Dosso Dossi Hotels & Spa Downtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Dosso-Dossi-Hotels-Spa-Downtown.h9981839.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Istanbul Bosphorus](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Hilton-Istanbul-Bosphorus.h20867.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Istanbul Bomonti Hotel & Conference Center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Hilton-Istanbul-Bomonti-Hotel-Conference-Center.h6226720.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ritz-Carlton, Istanbul](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-The-Ritz-Carlton.h565576.Hotel-Information) > > [Address Istanbul](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Address-Istanbul.h68277409.Hotel-Information) > > [The G Hotels Istanbul](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Divan-Suites-Istanbul-G-Plus.h8768240.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza Istanbul Florya by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Istanbul-Florya.h11628263.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Yasmak Sultan](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Hotel-Yasmak-Sultan.h527417.Hotel-Information) > > [Raffles Istanbul](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Raffles-Istanbul.h8273536.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Istanbul Ataköy](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Istanbul-Atakoy.h9127669.Hotel-Information) > > [Ramada Encore By Wyndham Istanbul Basin Express](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Ramada-Encore-By-Wyndham-Istanbul-Basin-Express.h38506356.Hotel-Information) > > [Conrad Istanbul Bosphorus](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Conrad-Istanbul-Bosphorus.h15234.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Istanbul City Center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Sheraton-Istanbul-City-Center.h38329865.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton By Hilton Istanbul Old City](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-Istanbul-Old-City.h72278508.Hotel-Information) > > [Doubletree By Hilton Istanbul Old Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Doubletree-By-Hilton-Istanbul-Old-Town.h3758303.Hotel-Information) > > [Occidental Taksim](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Occidental-Taksim.h1160507.Hotel-Information) > > [Niles Hotel Istanbul - Special Class](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Niles-Hotel-Istanbul-Special-Class.h1583001.Hotel-Information) > > [Villa Pera Suite Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Villa-Pera-Suite-Hotel.h6186661.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham Istanbul Old City](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Celal-Aga-Konag.h33103149.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Quasar Istanbul](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Fairmont-Quasar-Istanbul.h16385021.Hotel-Information) > > [Ottoman's Life Hotel Deluxe](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Ottomans-Life-Hotel-Deluxe.h33628831.Hotel-Information)
