The Oberoi Amarvilas, Agra

We spent a night at The Oberoi Amarvilas with our family and it was the highlight of our India trip. The location is simply unbeatable, the hotel sits just a short distance from the Taj Mahal, and the uninterrupted view of the monument from the property (and our rooms) is something we'll never forget. Watching it change colour through the day was worth the trip on its own. The service was warm and effortless from start to finish. The concierge team helped us arrange a guided tour of the Taj Mahal and the golf-cart transfer right to the gate, which made the whole visit seamless and stress-free, especially travelling with children. Everyone we interacted with was genuinely gracious and attentive. The property itself is beautiful, grand yet welcoming, with lovely grounds, a gorgeous pool, and excellent dining. The rooms were spacious, immaculate, and thoughtfully appointed. It's a special place, and the team made us feel truly looked after. We'll definitely be back, and we can't recommend it highly enough for anyone visiting Agra. Thank you to Rohit and the entire team for an unforgettable stay.

We had a truly wonderful stay at the Oberoi Amarvilas. From the moment we arrived, every member of the team—from the doormen at the entrance to the reception staff—made us feel genuinely welcome and looked after. Our room was impeccably prepared, with great attention to detail, and the facilities, including the swimming pools, were excellent. The location is exceptional, offering stunning proximity to the Taj Mahal, and the complimentary buggy transfer to the monument was a thoughtful and convenient touch. What made our stay especially memorable was the attention given to our children. They were delighted to receive personalised pillows, a small gesture that made them feel truly special and reflected the hotel’s outstanding level of hospitality. Overall, I would highly recommend the Oberoi Amarvilas to anyone looking for a luxurious and unforgettable stay in Agra. The exceptional service, beautiful property, and thoughtful personal touches make it one of the finest hotels we have experienced.

location is the best in agra if u wanna see taj mahal from hotel room. atmosphere is great too. room is great enough to occupy 3 people indeed and u must book a balcony room if u wanna see the beauty of taj. cleanliness is top notch and hospitality and food both cant be described in words;they were the best part of hotel as per my preference. no complaint regarding service it was very well managed and amenities which they provide in room are more than sufficient . overall a must visit stay in agra.

We had an excellent stay at the Oberoi. We were very comfortable and slept well. The proximity to the Taj Mahal allowed us to go very early in the morning to see it. It was a trip of a lifetime and staying at the Oberoi made it as comfortable and easy as possible.

If you want to be treated like kings, then you have come to the right place. The hotel is excellent in every respect and the ideal base for visiting the Taj Mahal. They take care of everything. Our stay started off carefree with the airport pickup by the very sweet and attentive Mr. Harbhajan Singh. He is the driver for the Oberoi and pampers you rotten, explains everything well, and provides chilled drinks and refreshing towels. He also takes care of your transportation during the excursions to the Taj Mahal, Agra Fort, and other sights. He is always punctual and helps keeping an eye on the schedule to remind you of your planned excursions. In Belgium, we call that "crème de la crème." We would certainly also like to thank our guide Imran. He accompanied us on our excursions to the Taj Mahal and Agra Fort. His knowledge of these places is inexhaustible, which made our visits very interesting and unforgettable. We already miss the Oberoi Amarvillas: the beautiful rooms, the attentive staff, the delightful pool, and the delicious food. In short, a hotel never to be forgotten. Thank you Oberoi, Harbhajan & Imran !!!
