Agora Boutique Hotel & Bistro0

We were two people and we wanted to have a nice view of the Golden Horn or of the Marmara Sea, so we booked the last floor room. When we were accommodated, the host gave us a second-floor room. I am glad he did that because we received a very spacious apartment, with one bedroom (with two beds, a matrimonial and a single one) and a living room with an expandable bed (I think 5 people can be easily accommodated in this apartment. As a bonus, we had a large bathroom (with a jacuzzi tube). The design of the room is elegant, with oriental patterns, but the furniture is not quite new (yet very functional). We appreciated the cleanliness (better than in other hotels in Istanbul, although there is room for improvement) and the very comfortable beds. There is plenty of space for storing clothes, so the apartment can be used for longer staying (there is also a mini-fridge). The Wi-Fi signal was good. The breakfast was varied, offering plenty of choices. An important aspect is that we benefited from delicious dishes cooked on the site, at the time of breakfast. Not to mention the terrace, which offers lovely views, both to Sultanahmet and the sea. Thumbs up! Our host, Massalah, was very helpful in every aspect, giving us some tips. The boutique hotel is located in a good area, very close to the main attractions (Hagia Sophia, The Blue Mosque, Gulhane Park, and The Topkapi Palace), which are easily reachable by foot. Public transport stations are also closed (8-10 minutes)

The furniture is a little bit updated (but I really don't consider it a problem), but the quality/money rapport is a good one, taking into account the location and the offer in Sultanahmet.

Complimentary hot breakfast. Rooms are small but very well equipped, everything is there: air conditioner, safe box, wardrobe, small fridge, tee and coffee set, free water, soap and shampoo, all kinds of good quality towels, modern TV with an incredible amount of satellite channels. Room service is daily and perfectly done, you return in the evening to a new-like room. Very good location, close to public transport (train, metro, tram and busses) biggest tourist attractions and numerous restaurants and shops. Safe neighborhood.

No real coffee and black tee for breakfast, just the instant coffee powder. It would be nice if hotel guests would have a discount at one of the neighbouring grocery shops and/or restaurants.

Very good staff, clean room and perfect location. Nearby all historical monuments, Agia Sofia, Blue Mosque etc. All recomendations for spending time in this hotel.

Small room and not well double bed.

Great location and cute room. The room was maintained to be very clean. Loved the options included in the breakfast. You can get good information about locations of importance around and how to reach there with a tourist map at the reception. Has good places for food and other needs (water, etc.) just in the street behind (towards mosque).

The room was a little compact for two people. Though the restaurants around this stay are nice, but the prices of the nearby restaurants are on the high side. I recommend walking to different faraway locations.

being center easy transport to arrive main places next to Marmara sea ...

If you would like to have unforgettable experience in Istanbul and feel safe - Agora Boutique is a right choise. We booked Superior Room with sea view and jacuzzi ( direct sea view). This hotel is really charming place due to of its location very friendly stuff, rich traditional breakfasts and cleaness. Agora Boutique is a real gem hotel old Istanbul down town. Hope see you soon again and again! Thank you very much for beautiful and unforgettable holidays

My vacation was too short.

My wife and I were there for 5 days. We were very satisfied with everything. Its location is excellent, in the heart of the city. From the window of our room and from the terrace we could see the Blue Mosque and the sea from the terrace also. Kind, helpful employees at the reception. And the breakfast is 5 stars! Huge selection, wonderful food that Susan bakes and cooks fresh every day. We must return here!❤️

The staff was super friendly. The location is very convenient, extremely near to blue mosque. If you want to walk to blue mosque it's just 5 mins away. You need to take the way from arasta bazar. The port for cruise is also near The breakfast was good, limited variety but enough to satiate. The rooms were comfortable

The place has a cleanliness issue. We stayed for 4 nights but the towels were not changed neither the bathroom was washed even once. If you are okay with it then don't think twice before booking

Excellent location a street away from Blue Mosque and walking distance to all the top tourists attractions. exceptional service from all the staff ready to help and tips to save money for you.

nothing at all, staff is very friendly and will go above and beyond to accommodate you and your needs. I’ve 4 girls and we had one family connected room and separate double room. and stayed for 5 nights, every day we get the room tidy up and refreshed. All of us have enjoyed our time in hotel. not a single complaint.

The staff was incredibly helpful. The location was perfect, as it allowed easy access to all the prime attractions I wanted to visit. Moreover, the breakfast provided was delicious and satisfying. I truly felt that I received great value for my money. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel for its outstanding service, pristine rooms, fantastic location, delectable breakfast, and excellent affordability. It was a truly memorable stay!
