The Oberoi Amarvilas, Agra

We had a wonderful experience at the Oberoi, Amarvilas. Its proximity to the Taj Mahal makes it the best place to stay. We had a view of the Taj Mahal from our bedroom which made it surreal! They staff were extremely helpful (sometimes a bit much when insisting on taking your bag when you wanted to hold on to it) and friendly. The Indian restaurant was superb and the main restaurant was also very good. The is is a very elegant and beautiful hotel.

Staying at The Oberoi Amarvilas was truly one of the highlights of our trip to India and absolutely worth the splurge. From the moment we arrived, everything felt special. The hotel itself is beautiful, but what makes it extraordinary is the setting. Being able to see the Taj Mahal from our room and from different parts of the hotel was an unforgettable experience. We particularly loved the atmosphere of the hotel—elegant, peaceful and incredibly relaxing. After the excitement and heat of exploring Agra, returning to the Amarvilas felt like stepping into another world. The service was exceptional throughout our stay. Everyone was warm, attentive and genuinely helpful, without ever feeling intrusive. The hotel also helped us arrange our early morning visit to the Taj Mahal, including the guide and transportation, which made the experience completely seamless. The highlight was undoubtedly the sunrise visit to the Taj Mahal. Coming back to the hotel afterwards for a relaxed breakfast while still enjoying the view of the Taj was something we will remember for a very long time. The Oberoi Amarvilas was not simply a hotel. It was part of the experience of visiting the Taj Mahal, and we are very glad we chose to stay there. A truly unforgettable stay. We would return without hesitation

Staying at the Oberoi has been once of the most special experiences in life so far. The service at the hotel is nothing but perfection. Nothing is too much trouble and we had a wonderful stay. A special thank you to Alisha and Kaursik who made our stay so special. And also a special thank you to Sandeep our tour guide who did a wonderful job of taking us around the Taj Mahal and a tour of the marble workshop this morning. I would recommend this hotel and Sandeep to anyone staying in Agra.

Simply amazing. An excellent stay with superb service. We felt like the only guests in the hotel with lots of care and attention. Kausik was extremely attentive. Thankyou all very much. Sandeep the tour guide: What a wonderful experience of seeing the Taj… without the guide, the story is lost. Excellent knowledge!

An unforgettable stay at Amarvilas My wife and I recently spent 3 nights at The Oberoi Amarvilas, and without a doubt, it has been one of the finest hotel experiences we've ever had. From the moment we arrived until the day we reluctantly checked out, every single interaction reflected genuine warmth, impeccable hospitality, and an extraordinary attention to detail. Of course, the uninterrupted views of the Taj Mahal are breathtaking, but what truly sets Amarvilas apart is its people. A very special thank you to Mr. Rohit Kukreja, the General Manager, whose gracious hospitality and personal attention made our stay truly memorable. His commitment to ensuring every guest has an exceptional experience is evident throughout the property. Jyoti greeted us with the warmest smile every day and was always a pleasure to interact with. Chef Jaskirat elevated our experience with beautifully curated meals that were thoughtfully prepared and absolutely outstanding. Dining was made effortless and enjoyable by Smriti, Abhishek, and Anurag, whose attentive yet unobtrusive service was consistently excellent. Our room was immaculate every single day thanks to Gaurav and Faisal from Housekeeping. Walking back into the room each evening genuinely felt like returning to a luxury sanctuary. A special mention as well to Madhav at the pool, who looked after us with exceptional care and made every visit relaxing and enjoyable. Luxury hotels can offer beautiful rooms and stunning locations, but it's rare to find a team that makes you feel so genuinely cared for. Amarvilas delivers both in abundance. We left with wonderful memories and are already looking forward to returning. Until next time, Amarvilas.
