From the moment I arrived, Colonel and Mrs Lamba made me feel very welcome. They sat me down straight away and gave me tea in their sitting room, and told me about the holi festival of colour which was going on that day, warning me that I might be daubed with paint if I wandered about the streets...in the event...

A comfortable place to stay in Agra with lovely hosts. The Colonel is very knowledgeable and very helpful with any problems/queries.

This property was very hard to find and we arrived too late for dinner. We were too tired to try to go back into the downtown area to eat. Our hosts kindly made us sandwiches for a snack. Breakfast was very simple but filling. Our room was okay but the bed was quite hard. Probably the best thing about our... More

first impression was not great. the rooms are very 'homestay' which is exactly as advertised. however, I'd like to see rooms that look a bit more updated. It felt like I was staying in their teenagers' former bedroom room -- so like stay at an old family friend's house. the bathrooms were the type where you take a shower and... More

The hotel is far from the centre of Agra and even you can see Taj Mahal from the roof of the hotel it is still a long distance to the downtown. The most disappinting thing is the size of rooms - no place to put you bags, unefficient AC, noisy fan. The frdge in our room remembers Second World War... More

Perfectly fine accommodation at a super reasonable price. The room was clean as was the bathroom; everything functioned fine. We stayed in the house across the street from the main house with the kitchen. I did wake up to loud snoring during the night - turns out it wasn't my bed mate but some bloke sleeping in the next courtyard!... More

We had expected a homely family atmosphere, which it certainly didn't have. The room was OK, but the loo was in danger of overflowing evey time it was flushed and the shower just didn't have any water. The basin tap didn't have more than a drip either. We were offered tea/coffee on arrival in a friendly way of welcoming guests,... More

As soon as we were picked up from the Agra train station, we knew that we were in good hands. Col Lamba runs a very good homestay - we felt totally safe there. He met us at reception and registered our details and collected our payment. He then swiftly organized our driver from Agra to Jaipur and also briefed us... More

Nice, friendy people. The homestay is located in a friendly, quit street not to far away from the city. The roof terrace is nice and has a view on the Taj Mahal. For site seeing I can recommend to hire the 'house' auto riksja driver Vijay. The rooms have now real windows and are a bit out dated furnished.
