The hotel is good, very nice design, good swimming pool, the room was good and clean.
The breakfast was an indian breakfast, as I hate indian food, I didn't like it. But at least the breakfast was better then other Indian hotels i have already stayed.
I was ina bad luck during this trip, the AC was not working properly, at 3AM I called the reception and they tried to solve the problem, as they were not able to solve it, They offered me another room, I moved and for my surprise the AC was not working also.
The problem in most of the hotels in India is that the AC is a Central AC, then you cannot do too much to increase or decrease the temperature.
The hotel is average, nothing that will surprise you positively speaking. I have been there once, but i really don't know if i would stay there again.

I went to this hotel in February 2011 with great expectations. But I was extremely disappointed. The hotel is absolutely lifeless, as one other reviewer has said. I arrived there during lunchtime and according to the tour guide, the hotel would have its lunch ready. But to my amazement, lunch was not ready as they had not cooked anything at all. I had to wait for almost an hour while they prepared lunch. To make matters worse, my wife and my kids started vomitting and gaving diarrhoea later in the evening. The staffs are extremely rude, especially the receptionist. I will never go back to this hotel even if I was given a million dollars.

My travel agent recommend this hotel for our stay in agra as part of our package tour in india. Hotel design is moorish-indian architecture nice to take photo in front of the hotel. the huge lobby is simply furnish with white paint all over the place. Room and bathroom are old but have been renovated. Pool is under repair during our stay. It's nice to have a shopping mall across the street. but we have latter found out that it only have limited tenants. We ate in the hotel restaurant for our dinner, breakfast and lunch and find the food to be above average. Taj Mahal is so elegant and beautiful for photo in all angles.

the hotel looks very pretty on the outside but like many other hotels in india they lack that "sparkle" factor im looking for. dont bother with their fridge and try not to use the stairs but the price isnt bad, the bed soft with marble washrooms. also, the staff of this hotel more than makes up for the lack of amenities. they were extra attentive both at the restaurant and at the concierge and even helped me print out my airplane ticket which i lost in transit for free.
