“Faceless hotel, disinterested staff”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 January 2012

The hotel is rather faceless, the staff - disinterested in the guests.
The room was quite clean, but stuffy and had no daylight at all. The heating system is centralized, so in case you find it too warm inside the room, they 'cannot help it'.
OK place for a night, but if you want to spend more time in Agra, it might make sense to look for another hotel - this one is overpriced. The restaurant is overpriced too.
Not too far from Taj Mahal and other major sights - but not as close as some other reviewers write - you still have to take a rickshaw to get there.

“No room at the Inn”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 January 2012
2
people found this review helpful

Recently, thirteen members of of my family, ranging in ages from 8 to 80, showed up on December 25th, as scheduled, to Hotel Amar. We had a voucher confirming our bookings at the hotel, through Cox and King, our travel agents. Much to our horror, they told us that they had no rooms for us there. They sat us in their lobby, while 'looking into the problem'. When confronted about how such an error could happen, Mr. Verma was slippery and avoidant. "it is complicated", was all he could say. He promised to put us in a hotel 'of par' and sent us to Hotel Satyam where the linen was soiled, the toilets were clogged and the rooms were filthy and the heating was inadequate.we had a misearable experience in this hotel due to the fact that hotel amar gave our rooms to some other people even though we had been booked there as per our travel agent.

“very nice”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 January 2012

The hotel had nice rooms that were very spacious. The room had reverse cycle air con, and the beds were nice. We had hot water at all times.....unlike some other similarly priced Indian hotels we have stayed at! The hotel was in a convenient location near the other upmarket shops and restaurants. Had all the facilities you would expect from a large hotel. Breakfast was tasty as well, although not amazing.
