What a disappointment this hotel turned out to be. The Internet photos look great, but don't look too hard if you're a structural engineer. I accept that building regs in India don't meet many international standards, but they haven't even tried to hide the poor quality here. The most obvious is the window glass and frames - very scary. It's... More

Awesome hotel and very much near to Taj Mahal. Soundproof rooms, well furnished, neat and clean. Decent price for an International standard hotel. Food was really great, worth the money spent. Also, hotel staff was always welcoming and room service was quick. Do not miss the morning breakfast buffet.

My first impressions entering the graveled beaten surroundings were that this in fact was a Retreat. A retreat away from the hustle and bustle that makes the lonely traveler fall in love with India. We stayed at this hotel for a day and a night as we were on a short trip through the golden triangle. We chose this as... More

Relatively new hotel, luxurious enough, with a pool, and reasonably priced. The travel office in the lobby is honest and very helpful. Staff was helpful and the restaurant offers great choice of dishes and excellent food.

After a 7 hour drive from Delhi, we were worried that we may have paid too little for the next hotel-we were not at all disappointed. Very clean in a boutique style with a pool on the roof - less than a mile from the Taj Mahal and definitely would recommend.

Awesome hotel in the center of the Indian craziness that is Agra! I wish I could have stayed here for more than one night during my Triangle Tour, but the memories were worth the short stay. Great food in the restaurant downstairs, very helpful staff (using their travel desk computer was very thoughtful) and nice location make this hotel a... More

The Retreat Hotel is a modern clean comfortable hotel quite close to the Taj Mahal, very large modern rooms, bed and bathroom, in room tea/coffee/bar fridge. The restaurant offers a great variety of food and they do an excellent Dahl Makhani dish. The staff are friendly and helpful.

We stayed at this hotel for a day and a half (March 29, 2013). Rooms are modern, equipped with flat screens, clean, and you have a free wi-fi service. The breakfast is rich and the restaurant food is very good. However - the street where the hotel is located is dusty, no side walk and it looks like a slam.... More
