We had a lovely time here and the staff were lovely.
In particular, Andrea ( bar, pool, restaurant), Raman ( reception), Faisal ( room), Hellmand ( bar and restaurant) and the chap in charge of the till in the restaurant.
Very close to Agra Fort and right opposite the lake with the water palace.
The rooms were beautiful and the shower was amazing.
We ate in the restaurant both nights we were there. It was a buffet but all very fresh and the staff ran through all of the dishes - not just their names like in some places but also the ingredients and how it was cooked. The food was wonderful and a fair price too.
As we were there at the end of season there were a lot of staff to guests and I found it quite intrusive at one point as I'd been asked 4 times within a few how things were when I was trying to say something to my partner. The fifth person to ask caught the brunt of my displeasure at being interrupted again for the same thing.
I felt bad about it and apologised but the staff said that it was their fault due to all staff to guest ratio and they like to respect guests privacy but also offer great service.
At breakfast the next day the staff appeared almost scared to come to the table which didn't help my guilt but...We had a lovely time here and the staff were lovely.

At breakfast the next day the staff appeared almost scared to come to the table which didn't help my guilt but they were only doing as I'd requested the previous evening.
Alcohol was expensive here but there was a very long happy hour which was two for one. Can't remember the hours but it wasn't an hour, more like half a day to 11pm.
I would recommend this to all as it was a very welcome relief to the mayhem outside.
The breakfast was also very good a varied.
We had a lake view room and a view of the water palace which looked fantastic.
Thanks to all the team at Trident Jaipur and in particular the staff I mentioned at the top of this review.
We had some Swans for the towel art here.More
