The Oberoi Amarvilas, Agra

During our round trip through India, we stayed at The Oberoi Amarvilas in Agra for just one night to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. What we experienced was beyond anything we could have imagined. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed like a king and queen. The arrival ceremony, complete with flower garlands and a warm traditional welcome, was simply unforgettable. We were personally greeted by General Manager Mr. Kukreja and Room Division Manager Mr. Rawal, who made us feel incredibly special. The way they presented the hotel and connected our stay to our anniversary with the words “It’s all about love” was truly touching. Our room was a dream. We were fortunate to receive an upgrade, and the room was beautifully decorated for our anniversary. We were speechless. Every detail reflected thoughtfulness, elegance and genuine hospitality. One of the highlights was our dinner under the stars. It felt magical and romantic beyond words. The food, the atmosphere, the service – everything was absolutely perfect. For anyone visiting Agra and the Taj Mahal, this hotel is an absolute must. In the early morning, we were taken directly to the Taj Mahal by hotel buggy for sunrise. Seeing this wonder of the world at sunrise was one of the most beautiful experiences of our lives. Returning afterwards to enjoy a fantastic breakfast at the hotel made the morning even more memorable. What made our stay truly exceptional, however, was the staff. Every single person we encountered was warm, attentive, professional and genuinely caring. The level of hospitality was unlike anything we have experienced before. There is one additional reason why we are especially grateful to Mr. Kukreja. Originally, we had booked our stay from Thursday to Friday as part of our independently arranged itinerary. Unfortunately, we did not know that the Taj Mahal is closed to visitors on Fridays, meaning a sunrise visit would not have been possible. After contacting the hotel, Mr. Kukreja personally helped arrange a change of our reservation, even though the booking had not been made directly through the hotel. Thanks to his kindness and willingness to help, we were able to adjust our travel plans and enjoy the unforgettable sunrise experience at the Taj Mahal. This was far beyond what we could have expected and demonstrated an extraordinary level of customer care. We cannot thank Mr. Kukreja enough for making this possible. Among all the wonderful hotels we stayed at during our India journey, The Oberoi Amarvilas was without question the very best. The exceptional staff, outstanding food, incredible attention to detail and thoughtful surprises throughout our stay made it truly special. Thank you to everyone at The Oberoi Amarvilas for giving us memories that will stay with us forever. If you are visiting Agra, do not stay anywhere else. Diese Version wirkt auf Tripadvisor sehr authentisch, persönlich und hochwertig und hebt besonders die Leistung von Mr. Kukreja sowie des gesamten Teams hervor.

A visit to Agra is usually synonymous with a visit to the Taj Mahal! And when the hotel experience AND the Taj Mahal visit are both outstanding, the trip qualifies as a superbly memorable one! So it was for us in May 2026! Superlatively warm service and a high quality of care and attention at the Oberoi Amarvilas Hotel had us feeling spoilt! And then the visit to the Taj Mahal with our wonderful guide Sandeep Kumar had us enthralled. This was not our first visit to the Taj. But Sandeep created a completely different experience for us with his vast knowledge, interesting facts and his ready wit! His storytelling style was par excellence! And we had the best photos from this trip because Sandeep guided us to the best spots! Memories have been crafted that will stay with us for a lifetime!

We enjoyed the property. The staff very good ,rooms and all area very clean plus every one took care of us. We love Oberoi Group of Hotel

We stayed at the Oberoi Amarvilas at the end of May for our wedding anniversary visit to Agra and we enjoyed every moment of our stay . The location , the room , facilities and the heartwarming service by the entire staff made the whole experience one of the best we have had in recent times . From the day we checked in till we left , everyone really made us feel at home at Amarvilas, which is what I guess Oberoi hotels stand for ! The personal conversations we had across check-in , dining and tours with the staff showed the dedication and attention to detail at Amarvilas and really would like to thank everyone who made our stay amazing . We could not use many of the facilities of the hotel like Spa , Pool Gym etc due to lack of time and those we would try the next time 😊. Would like to congratulate the GM Rohit and entire staff at Amarvilas for the excellent standards in hospitality and we really look forward to coming here again !

We visited the Taj Mahal as part of our first wedding anniversary. The Oberoi Amarvilas made us feel so special and welcome. The location is close to the Taj, the rooms and hotel were clean, the staff knowledgeable, exceptionally polite and professional. The pool area is particularly stunning. The hotel arranged for us to have a tour of the Taj Mahal and Muzammil (our guide) was wonderful. I don't think there was a single question we had that he couldn't answer. He took great photos of my wife and I together and we will cherish this trip for a long time. We will certainly be back!
