This hotel blew my mind! The views of the Taj from our balcony room were surreal, the grounds were gorgeous and the staff was fantastic. I felt like a celebrity staying here, especially while we were waited on at the gorgeous pool. Food was stellar and the spa is righteous! Frommer's had this hotel as a must-stay and worth the splurge...which I totally agree. Chances are you'll only be in Agra once, so go big and stay here!

My family and I stayed there for my wife's 50th Birthday and we had an incredible experience. The service was great, the food was excellent and to the musicians in the restaurant, I am forever grateful; they played "Happy Birthday" on the sitar for her and treated her like a queen. It is an experience all of us will never forget!!!

If you can afford it, you simply wouldn't stay anywhere else in Agra. With full view of the Taj (try to get a room on higher floors) this is the best location in town. We could see the Taj from our bed or sitting on our balcony.

Service is excellent and they cater to your every need. But it doesn't get 5 out of 5 for value, since it did cost me US$575 a night...

Price was very high, but for one or two nights of a lifetime it is easily worth ...

There was nothing, abbsolutely nothing that was not perfect at this hotel- the staff, the building, the shops, the restaurants, and especially the bedroom. The spa was also incredible, and because of the small size of the hotel, it was easy to get appointments.

When they advertise a view of the TAj Mahal from everyroom, it is true! Could have ...

By far, the best hotel in Agra with many Western ammenities. Rooms and restaurent are spotless. Service is exceptional. You will not be dissapointed, but your pocket book will take a hit.
