Great place to stay but be aware of a few things

The hotel is located in the famous Kemeralti Market so shops and restaurants are literally right outside the door. Izmir landmarks such as the clock tower are a few minutes walk away. The staff is friendly, the breakfast is good and the place is kept clean. We had an early morning tour to Ephesus and they were even able to supply us with a sandwich and drink to take on the road However there are a few things that a traveller needs to be aware of: 1) Because the hotel is inside the market, taxis may not be able to bring you right to the door because of the narrow streets and crowds in the market. It is about a 100 meter walk from the main street to the hotel. 2) The hotel is constructed around a courtyard restaurant that hosts live music every night starting from 8 pm and stopping promptly at 11 pm 3) The rooms are not highly sound insulated so you can hear the music outside and the kids in the room next door. We had a great experience at L'Agora Old Town Hotel. If these things are mentioned do not concern you, I would not hesitate to recommend staying at there.

Quaint but noisy

The location itself is beautiful but it’s in the middle of the bazaar which is abandoned at night and not near anything else. Because the restaurant (which I would suggest eating at rather than staying here) is in the courtyard there is a constant din of people and live music until 11pm. I could hear people still up talking and smoking upstairs until 1am on a Tuesday night.

the hotel is unique in that it has a courtyard that serves multiple functions including food services and live entertainment, the negatives: the hotel is located inside a bazaar which makes it difficult to find, and the rooms need upgrading,

Overpriced for a hostel - definitely not upscale as described. There is no garden - but we had paid for “deluxe garden view” room - no such thing. Dirty, tacky furnishings, dead plants everywhere. Vile misogynist men hanging around outside the entrance. Our companions checked out for a room that did not smell of fish (from the market below) in a safer hotel.

Local flavor with comfort

This was a great hotel experience! The young staff were amazing, spoke fluent English, and really cared for you. Do yourself a favor and accept their room walk-through when you first check in. They will show you how to work the shower and the air conditioning, which both need instructions to work optimally. Generally, you have to run the hot water for a bit before it gets really hot. And you have to wait for the AC to kick in. So be patient. Water pressure is always amazing and you can get your room to feel like an ice box if you know how to operate your AC unit. Breakfast is delicious every morning. Lots of fresh breads, cheeses, fruits and veggies plus hot options (fried peppers and mushrooms, sausage, and delicious scrambled eggs shakshuka). Yes, every night there is live music in the courtyard restaurant, but it always stops at 11 pm. The restaurant has an excellent menu with an impressive wine list (try Narince wine, local Turkish grape, yummy). Do know that this hotel is housed in a historic building on the edge of the bazaar that used to be an inn long time ago. It is located on Havra Street, which is known as the Synagogue Street (used to be a Jewish neighborhood). Outside of the hotel, there is a food market (yes, with a few fish mongers -- but you never smell the fish at the hotel, just on the way to it) with lots of fresh produce, traditional sweets, and spices. Overall, you could not ask for a better location!

L’Agora Old Town Hotel was right in the center of Kemeraltı Bazaar, which was amazingly convenient. Shops and food all around, but the best food and environment was at L’Agora itself. The room was a good size and clean. We loved our stay at L’Agora!

The hotel has a lovely decor with a courtyard in between that houses a nice cafe. The room I was in was decent sized with a nice bathroom. My room had double doors and I can understand why, as there is live music every evening. It is a lively hotel and right inside the famous Kemeralti bazaar of Izmir. So, you can shop as soon as you step out of the hotel. The only downside is that just next to the hotel is the fish market and the fishy smell wafts right in if you are eating at the cafe. Also, not all taxi drivers know that there is a back lane to reach the hotel, so they just drop you outside the bazaar for you to pull your luggage through the bazaar to the hotel.

Good stay!

Location is great. It's far from the cool area of Izmir but if you want to be in the middle of all the shopping/historical action, this is the best place. It has a very cute central open air area which is also the restaurants. Bed was comfy and room was clean.

Excellent Service and Comfortable Stay

Our room was very clean and comfortable. The evening music in the central courtyard might be an issue for an early sleeper. However, the excellent service and friendliness of the staff more than make up for any shortcoming. Each and every member were commendable, and Turker really stood out as an exceptional manager/concierge.

The L’Agora is a nice hotel in the middle of a chaotic and kaleidoscopic area. We packed the mile from the train station and made our way through the fishmarket, and suddenly there was a little entrance to a cool courtyard with cafe tables and dining service. It was so unusual. The area around the hotel is a bazaar, but the hotel property feels safe and is a pleasant place for a beer or glass of wine outside your room. Checkin and check out are easy. The room is nice, and it is clean. There is sound coming from the courtyard, but we were not bothered by that. We had an ill advised ekmek in the market, do we did not try the restaurant food. I really liked the atmosphere and I liked the energy of the surroundings, but I admit it is not for everyone
