Our two days and nights at The Oberoi Amarvilas were an absolute dream. Every room has a view of the magnificent Taj Mahal, and from the moment we arrived, the warm welcome and attention to detail were outstanding. Varun at reception was really amazing ! Our room was huge and beautifully appointed — we loved the welcome sign with fresh flowers and all the thoughtful little extras waiting for us. We had dinner at both restaurants and the food was excellent throughout. For our early Taj Mahal visit, we were up at 5 AM, yet the hotel already had delicious coffee and breakfast pastries ready while we waited for our guide. A golf cart whisks you to the entrance of the Taj — yes, it's that close. We spent a relaxing afternoon by the pool, beautifully looked after by very kind and attentive pool guys with towels, drinks, and even a tray of sunscreen. We also treated ourselves to a wonderful 90-minute spa session (back and head massage plus a facial) that we highly recommend. A special mention as well to Ms Bali who helped us during the super delicious breakfasts and lunches snd to the very kind head of the breakfast (the lady in blue) We were really sad to leave after just two days — we could easily have stayed for weeks. So now we need to plan our nxt visit 😎

This is one of the best hotels for visiting the Taj Mahal. We stayed in a room with a balcony facing the Taj, and the view was absolutely incredible. The hotel facilities are outstanding and make you almost not want to leave the property. Everything is beautifully maintained, comfortable, and designed to provide a truly memorable experience. The staff were exceptionally friendly, welcoming, and always willing to help. Their attention to detail and commitment to guest satisfaction made our stay even more enjoyable. If you are planning a visit to the Taj Mahal, I highly recommend this hotel. The location, facilities, service, and views make it an unforgettable place to stay, and I would gladly return in the future.

We stayed for 2 nights in September. The experience was outstanding . It is a beautiful hotel. The warm welcome and service we received from the hotel staff was exceptional. They are very attentive. I would have no hesitation in recommending this hotel to anyone visiting Agra and the Taj Mahal. The hotel arranged for Kishore Gupta to guide for us for our sunrise visit to the Taj. He whisked us through the entry quickly and took us to beautiful photo spots before the queues arriived. He is well travelled but local to Agra and has extensive knowledge of the monument, the grounds and the history behind it all. We enjoyed his company and learning things that would been missed if we went by ourselves.

Had a great experience with our families at the Oberoi. The environs, service, breakfast and rooms were exceptional. I want to give a particular shout out to our guide Sandeep, who is available through the Oberoi. His tours of the Taj and the fort were amazing. He is a historian but has the gift of a great storyteller.
