This property is synonymous with HUGE rooms and bigger bathrooms. Loved the use of red bricks in the rooms, it gives a very royal vibe to the place. Also learnt the hotel is a heritage property used to belong to one of the Maharajas of Agra. Historically, many important personalities have visited the place. They have restored it well. The...

This beautiful 100 year old colonial hotel still maintains its stately ambience. High ceilings, fans, double inside and outside doors, and period furniture grace the rooms. We enjoyed the food in the restaurant and the breakfast included an egg station. Service was from an earlier time when there was someone ready whenever you might need something. An easy recommendation.

We enjoyed our stay here. We put a lot of value on charm and ambiance, and this hotel had both - from the attractive arches and decorative tile floors, to the delightful pool and gazebo in the back courtyard. We were charmed by the welcoming flower garlands, the puppet show on the lawn, and the large breakfast buffet (with a... More

Having read reviews of Agra we decided to plump for an established hotel which had a colonial feel, this hotel is very elegant and the gardens were lovely. Our room was clean, and comfortable but overall the hotel does feel a little tired. The restaurant was OK and the staff very friendly but the food was mediocre I'd say, though... More
