The little village it is in is an old and small Ege village. There are tracking opportunities and historical sites around.
The facility itself is exceptional, considering the village outside. The food is local based and menu is crafted very carefully. The facility is very quiet and relaxing. Rooms vary in size. I slept in two different rooms. Both beds were very comfortable. Rooms are air conditioned and well maintained.
It is a family friendly environment. You can leave your kids free within the facility and take walks around.
These comments usually say owners are very friendly and etc but I am writing this for the first time in Expedia. They dined with us. Chat like a friend.
Overall a good experience if you want to spend time around Lake Bafa

A part of history. Great, calm, beautiful place. You can sit under the trees all day and time slows down. Nearby Roman ruins are great for exploration. But most of all, food is really good, highly recommended.

Amazing spot for hiking and archeology!

Firstly, I want to say this was one of the most enjoyable hotel stays I have had in my 30ish years of international travel.

The Hotel consists of small cabins spread amongst a beautiful garden, surrounding the main building which houses the restaurant. This is a family operation, with Mithat running the hotel, sons and wives helping in the restaurant.

They also are able to guide you on various treks to the numerous archaeological sites ranging from Paleolithic cave paints to Byzantine Monasteries.

Situated just uphill from the old agora of Heraklei under the Latmos, you are feet away from incredibly well preserved Roman baths, Hellenistic theater, and some of the best preserved Hellenistic fortifications in the world.

The Hotel and Restaurant made the Michelin guide this year, and it's incredibly well deserved. Every meal was fantastic, and the service was outstanding.

I regret not having budgeted more time at Lake Bafa. Between this hotel and the numerous archaeological sites in the area I could have stayed for weeks.

I highly encourage this hotel for anyone who has a interest in trekking/hiking, and 100% it's a must stay if you or your significant other have a interest in Roman-Byzantine history and archaeology.

I honestly can't recommend this hotel enough. Book here, and you won't regret.

It was a great place. Family business, beautiful boarding house. Friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Nice bright room, we got a better room, the owner of Mithat was very kind, for which we thank him very much. A delicious homemade dinner with good wine.
The place is very quiet, in the heart of the village. A beautiful lake and we lived right next to the ancient ruins. The ancient history of this place makes it exceptional. Thank you again very much. We had a lot of pleasure

The town of Kapikiri where the Agora Pansiyon is located is a Roman city where people live among the ruins on a Lake that is on the migratory bird routes. It is easy to walk in the town and everyone was very friendly.

Agora Pansyion has protected parking, an outdoor seating area for warmer weather and an area inside for cooler weather. The owner, Mithat Sercin, provides a full range of additional services to include guided walking tours of the area. He is also an excellent photographer.

There are no restaurants in the town except those attached to other places to stay but the food prepared by the owner's mother checks all the boxes for delicious, healthy eating.

If you are looking for small town restfulness, authentic village home cooking combined with the ability to walking in history, Agora Pansyion is the place to spend some time.

Expensive for what you get

This place is good for a stopover. It isn’t on the lake so no nice views and there isn’t too much to do in the village.

The room was okay although we were unable to lock our room as the previous guest had taken the key. We were given a few spare keys to try after we arrived, but that isn’t really for guests to do! The village may well be “safe” but guests don’t know anyone from Adam. Surprised there wasn’t a spare and/or housekeeping key!

The Agora isn’t cheap for what you get and having traveled extensively in Turkey and Eastern Europe for months at a time, you get no more or less than other locations.

Beer was 60 lira a bottle, this is more than some places in Bodrum, expensive for a rural location. The food was okay but expensive and nothing that got us excited. Also there is no price list or menu, the menu is basically what is available on any given day.

We would have given a higher review had it not been for the prices and not being able to lock our room at night!

Kapikiri is in the middle of nowhere, and very difficult to get to if you don't have a car or speak the language. That said, it is worth the effort! This is a very unusual and beautiful part of Turkiye, and I have never been to a place where the village was literally built around the ruins of Helikos, dating back to 300 BC. Not kidding- to get to some ruin sites, you have to walk through people's yards! The villagers are very friendly, but the women will try to sell you trinkets at every turn. The only disappointment was that I couldn't go on the guided hike to see the 5000 BC rock drawings- my guide woke up sick, so he had to cancel. Nothing in Turkiye is fast, so a last-minute replacement wasn't an option. BTW, the food is a major reason to visit- everything cooked fresh by mama, and everything grown on their farm. Exquisite!!

Athena tapınağına çok yakın konum olarak, gün batımı izlemek için ideal. Personel çok ilgili ve tatlıydı. Odalar yeterli; kurutma makinesi havlular, klima ve kalorifer 7/24 konaklamaya uygun. Yemekler tarif edildiği kadar var; her öğünde servis ettikleri zeytin ve zeytinyağı tadı damağımda. Şirin, bohem tekrardan gelmek isteyeceğim, yemekleri için de geleceğimi düşündüğüm bir yer idi.

Ce petit hôtel n'est pas une découverte, nous y étions déjà venus il y a plusieurs années. Nous avons logé dans un petit bungalow au cœur d'un jardin luxuriant très agréable mais où il faut savoir qu'il y a peu de mètres carrés habitables et où les lits nous ont semblé très durs ! nous avons décidé de dîner sur place mais malheureusement une mauvaise surprise nous attendait car les prix ont explosé ! ceci est dû au classement au guide Michelin. Pour le petit-déjeuner rien à dire, il est bien fourni et diversifié.

Not Recommended

EN:
We couldn’t rest or sleep at the place where we stayed! Due to the disruptive behavior of intoxicated neighbors, who engaged in loud, abusive language and threats (such as 'I’ll burn down the houses,' 'I’ll hit them,' etc.), we were kept awake all night. Unable to find any rest, we had to leave the village and spend the night in our car at a central location. When we reached out to the pension manager, who was not on-site, he offered no solution and dismissed us with a remark like, 'If you’re disturbed, call the gendarmerie.' The pension is located quite far from the main route in a remote area. For a more reliable and peaceful stay, I do not recommend this place.

TR:
Dinlenmek için konakladığımız yerde ne dinlenebildik ne de uyuyabildik! Alkollü komşularınız sayesinde gece boyunca yüksek sesle küfürlü konuşmalar ve tehditlerle(evlere yakacağım, onları vuracağım vb.) uyuyamadık. Hiç dinlenemeden köyden uzaklaşıp merkezi bir noktada arabada dinlenmek zorunda kaldık. Pansiyon sorumlusuyla iletişime geçtiğimizde, pansiyonda olmadığı gibi gece boyunca bu duruma bir çare bulamayarak 'Rahatsız oluyorsanız gidin jandarmayı çağırın' şeklinde bir ifadeyle başından savdı. Pansiyon, yol güzergahından oldukca uzak ve tenha bir noktada kalıyor. Daha güvenilir ve huzurla kalabileceğiniz bir yerde konaklayın, tavsiye etmiyorum.
