Hotel Reviews Agan

The hotel is an excellent place to the main attractions: Blue Mosque, Hagia Sofia, Bazaar, and the Castle, ect... within walking distance. However, the hotel is not there to make their guesses feel protected. If you're asking how to walk to those main attractions, they are trying to sell you a walking tour. The hotel is good for the price paid.

very helpful and welcoming staff. The location is very convenient for major sightseeing. With its price and the service it offered, it is really optimum.

The staff were really friendly and helpful. The food downstairs was great, and chilling out on the cushions outside was a highlight of my evenings. The location was good, walking distance to most places. Only downside was the rooms were not as clean as i would have liked but still livable.

The hotel was generally ok just to spend the night as it has the basic facilities. We were on the 1st floor and it was very noisy from the surrounding bars/cafes. Hotel staff were very helpful and accomodating and even prepared us a complimentary bfast way before bfast commencement time, as we had to catch an early flight.

Rapporto qualità prezzo ottimo, personale gentilissimo. Pulito. Ottima posizione per girare a piedi nella zona più turistica. Istanbul incantevole città, però grande leggenda per gli acquisti e il cibo. Non fa per me contrattare ore, sconsiglio grand bazar per acquisti brutta roba e prezzi altissimi. Il cibo varia poco, hammam cagaloglu per le donne assolutamente da provare.

Ottimo compromesso per vedere una capitale europea in modo comodo e con poca spesa. Per quel che riguarda lo shopping al gran bazar consiglio sempre di contrattare e cominciare a farlo dalla metà del prezzo proposto altrimenti si rischiano grosse fregature!

Excellent location, at walking distance from the most famous attractions. Public transportation is also conveniently located, about 200 m away. Rooms are very small but they are worth the money and they are very clean. Personnel speaks a very good english and they are very supportive.

The location is the great thing about this hotel; less than a mile from most of the major sights and very close to some terrific restaurants (we particularly recommend the Enjoyer). The staff are friendly, especially the younger ones, but overwhelmed and seem to do 24hr shifts. Only one teenage girl spoke any English at all. The management are cheerfully inept - on arrival we were shunted off to a neighbouring hotel for the night as our room wasn't ready, and the cleaner was a law unto herself. There is internet connection, but the keyboard was scrubbed clean of characters, which about sums the place up. It's friendly but chaotic, so if it's a smooth holiday you want you should go elsewhere; but if you don't mind the madness and plan on being out in the city from dawn to dusk, as we were, then it works.

We spent 6 days in Istanbul - 3 nights in Hotel Agan, and the last night we had a reservation there too; but the hotel was overbooked. They promised another hotel (Best Nobel Hotel)in the near, and in the same price. It was very good quality in that price too.

It was really beautiful stay in this hotel. We did not expect something really luxurious, but for that price it was great. And situated just in the heart of the city.

Pluses: + It is near (10 min walk) to the main attractive places in Istanbul - Sultan Ahmet, Ayasofya and so on. + It is very near (3 min walk) to one of the tram stations. Minuses: - They don't like credit cards and ask you to pay in cash. - Their exchange rate for euro-turkish lira was high and unfair. - There is a building construction on-going just besides the hotel which spoils view from the window.

Hotel managment have done his best to not acept credit card and they demanded to have a great plus for paying with card! They have a public bar in the first floor that's very noisy. Breakfast is absolutelly horrible. Better chose the other hotels that are in the same street because the area is very well located to visit town.

We stayed for four nights in Hotel Agan. The service was friendly, the room was clean (cleanded every day). For two perons we had three beds. That was the reason, why the room seemed pretty narrow. Breakfast was okay. The most important sights can be reached within 10 minutes walk. For the airport shuttle from airport to the hotel they charged 25 € for two persons. Back there was a collective shuttle from several hotels that costed 10 YTL per Person (about 5 €). So I wonder why that price didn´t worked for the first ride. All in all a nice stay.

Service was generally excellent,, but we requested a wake-up call at 3:00 Am and never got it. We carry an alarm for that reason. Loved the location. Were surprised at the great breakfast provided, thought the employees were very solicitous. Couldn't believe the free internet provided. All in all, we would stay there again.

The location of the hotel is great if you stay there for holiday. It's near (walking distance) all the great sights of Istanbul! If you are on a business trip, I would not stay there as the standard of the hotel is not appropriate (no internet etc.).

Fisrt time at the hotel. The quality is excellent for the price. So is the location, quite close to the main monuments, close to the tramways which connects quickly to the Taksim commercial area. Good breakfast, very useful internet connection. I would advice credit cards acceptance.

The rooms were small but in excellent condition and clean. The bed was comfortable. The only complaint I have is the bathroom without a shower stall or curtain. The bathroom was clean, but it would be better to not have the shower spraying into the whole bathroom. The price was excellent when considering it included a TV (with limited satellite channels) and continental breakfast. The breakfast was modest but consistent. The staff were polite and helpful. I would stay here again. The hotel is in a neighborhood with a variety of inexpensive restaurants and cafes, and it is close to the tram and many popular tourist sites.

very low price and very low quality. The bathroom has a lot of things broken, the shower has no door or curtain so, when used, the bathroom gets wet everywhere. Very noisy because of the voices of guests in the rooms around. The room and the bathroom were really very small. We didn't understand the high rate of this hotel on the Internet page!

For a four-day stay in Istanbul with two children (6 and 9)this hotel was a very good choice, the rate between the price, the cleanliness of rooms, services and the hotel location was already very high by itself but it was increased by a very nice welcoming and devotion of the staff of the hotel. Breakfast were also a nice moments. Most of the touristic places of Istanbul are in a walking distance (even for children), lot of restaurants around the hotel with reasonalble prices. I recommand AGAN hotel to people who wants to travel with their children at a low price with a good quality of services (e.g. internet available for free in the lobby of the hotel, air conditioning in the room,...). The room was may be a little bit narrow for 4 people but was largely sufficient for the time we had to spend in it, and it was our choice to share the room with children. I would return in this hotel if I have to plan a holiday travel to Istanbul.

The Hotel is located in the center of Old Europe-Stanbul(the best part of the city). Is excellent location. You can go wacking to the Blue Mosquite,Topkapi Palace or to the Pier to take the ferry to Asia-Istanbul. The train-metro is 1 block away. If I go again I will stay there again.

We had trouble finding the hotel (our fault) and a member of staff came on foot to pick us up from a shop we had managed to phone from. That was great service. Also, our room was serviced and clean towels supplied. It was also the only time in Turkey we were given hand towels,(we pick cheaper hotels)so we were very impressed with the service. The location was very good, handy to the tram, spice market, Galatea Bridge and Bosphorus trip with many cheap friendly restaurants nearby. And a short tram trip or walk to other famous sights.

the hotel is very good and personnel is very kind. unfortunately there was a misunderstanding because we arrived one day later and we called to confirm our presence (in english) for the next days, but when we arrived we found that they had given our room to someone else! So we had to sleep one night in another hotel (very near but horrible) waiting for a free room in Agan! The hotel did all the research and accomodation in the other structure, and we paid however the pre-established price, but it was an annoyance

Not a fancy hotel but affordable. Reasonably close to city center but a good walk nonetheless. The included breakfast is modest. The hotel shows wear and needs some repair. Hallway lights were on a motion sensor which was irritating. Overall, not a bad stay.

first of all, i want to say that the pictures from venere don't show exactly the best view of Agan, which is actually much more nicer than i could imagine, looking at the pictures on venere. than, the rooms at the upper floor have a great view, one can really feel the city! the position of the hotel coudn't be better: you can reach all the main sites, by walking, in no time (plus it is near the trainstation and harbor)! last but not least, i would also what to thank the staff for being so nice and making our stay very pleasent - and the stay of other friends that went there, on my advice :) hope they keep the good prices and the good food, so that i will keep being their devoted client :)
