The staff was very helpful and friendly, speaking good English and providing great recommendations. The hostel's cleanliness is commendable with brand new showers and comfortable beds. The location was convenient, close to all main tourist attractions.
Some of the recommendations given by the staff for restaurants and Turkish baths turned out to be overpriced and felt like tourist traps. It's best to explore on your own or rely on other recommendations.

I recently stayed at Agora Guesthouse and had a wonderful experience. The location couldn't have been better, just a short walk away from the Blue Mosque and the tram that takes you everywhere. The hostel itself was incredibly clean and well-maintained. I loved spending time on the terrace, enjoying the view of the city and the sea. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable, always ready to help with any questions I had. The breakfast on the roof every morning was fantastic, with a variety of food to choose from. I highly recommend Agora Guesthouse for a great stay in Istanbul.

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel in Istanbul's Sultanahmet district. Firstly, the prices were incredibly reasonable, making it excellent value for money. Secondly, the staff was extremely attentive and provided great service. They were always available to help with any questions or concerns I had. Additionally, the basic amenities in the rooms were just what I needed, and the newly renovated bathrooms were modern and clean. Lastly, the breakfast served at the rooftop was outstanding, with a wide variety of options to choose from, including vegan choices. The view from the rooftop was also a wonderful bonus, allowing me to admire Istanbul's beauty while enjoying my meal.
All was well, nothing to complain about!

The staff at the hotel were extremely friendly and helpful. They gave great advice on where to eat and provided a brief explanation about public transportation and sightseeing. The breakfast served on the rooftop was delicious and had a wide variety of choices. The view from the rooftop was absolutely stunning, with a beautiful panoramic view of the city. The hotel's central location was a huge plus. It was within walking distance to many restaurants and attractions, making it convenient to explore the city. Additionally, the hotel was located close to public transportation, making it easy to get around.
The only downside was that the rooms could be a bit noisy, as you can hear noises from other rooms. Additionally, the lack of air conditioning in the rooms made it uncomfortable, especially with multiple people in the room.

Conveniently located in Sultanahmet, close to major attractions. Friendly and helpful staff, with a humorous chef at the terrace cafe/lounge. Clean facilities, including bathrooms, and a delicious Turkish breakfast. Great view from the rooftop terrace. On top of it, a friendly pet dog at the entrance.

Located in the heart of a buzzy district, close to the main attractions. Situated in a quiet neighborhood, allowing for a good night's sleep. Conveniently positioned in the Sultanamet area, making it easy to explore the historical sites. The rooms and bathrooms were clean and well-maintained. The staff were friendly, approachable, and always willing to help. The breakfast offered a delicious variety of options. The rooftop terrace provided a relaxing atmosphere to enjoy a coffee and plan the day ahead. The hostel had excellent facilities, including lockers and a fridge in the dorms.
Noise from other guests in the hostel part of the guesthouse could sometimes be disruptive.

The location of the guesthouse is perfect, with easy walking distance to all the major tourist spots in the area. The helpful staff at the front desk can even recommend some great bars nearby. The guesthouse is situated on a quiet street, ensuring a peaceful stay. Additionally, the bedrooms and bathrooms are kept very clean, providing a comfortable and hygienic environment. The complimentary breakfast served on the rooftop terrace offers a delicious meal with a stunning view of the water. The lockers under the beds provide ample space for storage, ensuring the safety of your belongings.
The only downside is that the rooms do not have individual locks, but there are lockers available for securing personal items.
