My husband and I stayed here and thoroughly adored our experience. We had been staying in all sorts of accommodations throughout India on a 2 month trip and decided to splurge here, based on a recommendation from an Indian friend of ours: it was well worth the splurge. We treated ourselves to room service tea: highly recommended. The food was... More

The views of the Taj Mahal are probably why most people come to this hotel and rightly so, they are breathtaking. However, the hotel lacks a certain atmosphere. The service is there but it isn't very warm. Also, because all the rooms face in the same direction, there is very little privacy on the balconies, not only from your neighbouring... More

Stayed here long time ago in September 2007. The service was excellent and the rooms huge and impeccably maintained. The two restaurants are phenomenal with superlative service. The bar area is relaxing and has great views. Do try the Indian restaurant- the food is authentic yet not heavy. All rooms are good as they have uninterrupted views of the Taj.... More

Hard to fault in any way. Beautiful fountain approach, lovely gardens and pool. Clear views towards the Taj Mahal half a mile or so away. Great Indian restaurant. Good breakfast. Lovely room with balcony. More

A beautiful hotel with an excellent staff. In particular, the manager went "above and beyond" in helping us with some unusual requests. Room was excellent, including bathroom and amenities. If only they could get the WiFi working!!! They tried, even gave us some free hours, but more often than not the connection dropped. Also, for a hotel of this quality,... More

This was probably the worst hotel I stayed at during my India trip. Compared to the Oberoi Udaivilas in Udaipur, this was not close as good as the other one. I do agree that the view is nice once the sky was clear. It was a very foggy period when we were there so we couldn't see Taj Mahal from... More

This is the most splendid hotel I've ever seen much less stayed in. We stayed here during our honeymoon. Despite the winter fog the views of the Taj Mahal were amazing. The grounds are immaculate, the pool and fountains are a work of art and the rooms are fantastic. The staff were so wonderfully friendly and helpful. The spa was... More
