The room was comfortable and spotlessly clean, making for a relaxing stay. We wished we had more time to explore everything the property has to offer—there’s actually quite a bit to enjoy beyond just the accommodations. A complimentary breakfast would’ve been a nice touch, especially compared to other resorts we’ve stayed at where it’s included. Still, the overall experience was excellent, with great service and a welcoming atmosphere. The location is convenient for exploring nearby attractions, and the staff went above and beyond to make us feel at home. Would definitely consider returning.
Staying at The P L Palace Agra was an absolutely delightful experience. The hotel is perfectly located—just a short distance from the highway and city center, making it super convenient for exploring Agra. The room was spotless, well-maintained, and very comfortable. The front desk staff were exceptionally polite and helpful—Deepali and Bushra were particularly outstanding, always ready to assist with a smile. Amar was another highlight—so courteous and humble, yet always attentive. The breakfast was delicious and satisfying, with a great variety of local and international options. Every detail felt thoughtfully taken care of. This place truly offers excellent value and hospitality. I’d definitely recommend it and will be returning.
The Hideout Agra Garden Homestay is an absolute gem. The rooms are clean, cozy, and thoughtfully decorated—perfect for a relaxing stay. The host is incredibly welcoming and always ready to help, offering great travel tips and recommendations. They assisted us with booking train tickets, taxis, and tuk-tuks, all with clear pricing and transparent service—no surprises at all.

Staying at Bansi Home Stay for just one night turned out to be an unforgettable experience. The hosts were incredibly warm and attentive—they gave us perfect timing tips for visiting the Taj Mahal and even had breakfast ready when we returned. The home was cozy, clean, and felt like a real second home. Its central location made exploring Agra effortless, and the personal touch from the owners made all the difference. Truly exceptional hospitality and value. I’d happily come back and highly recommend this gem to any traveler visiting Agra.
I actually think this place deserves a 3.5-star rating. On the bright side, it’s exceptionally clean and located in a peaceful residential area, just a short walk from both the Agra Fort and the Taj Mahal—perfect for exploring the city’s highlights. The young staff were genuinely eager to please, which was nice to see, but they’re still learning the ropes when it comes to hospitality. For example, the wardrobe had only one hanger, and there’s no kettle—something that would’ve been helpful since there aren’t any shops nearby. My room rate included breakfast, and there was a menu in the room, so I was really looking forward to trying an authentic Indian option. But the next morning, I wasn’t given any choice—I was just handed a basic omelette and toast, so I didn’t even bother going back. It’s clear they’re on the right track, but a little more attention to guest needs—like offering variety at breakfast or including small conveniences like a kettle—would make a big difference. With a few tweaks, this could easily become a solid 4-star experience. Overall, it’s a good value stay with great potential.
We didn’t stay overnight, but had dinner at the restaurant located on a beautifully maintained rooftop with an incredible view of the Taj Mahal. The ambiance was exceptional—serene, well-designed, and truly special. The food was delicious and surprisingly affordable for the quality, standing out even among other restaurants in Agra. The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome throughout the evening. It’s easily one of the best dining experiences we’ve had in the city. If you’re visiting Agra, whether just for a meal or planning to stay, this place is definitely worth a visit—great value, great views, and a memorable atmosphere.

I had dinner there at sunset—the sight was breathtaking. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout my stay, always going the extra mile to ensure comfort. I’d definitely return if I ever come back to Agra. This place feels like home away from home, and it’s a perfect base for exploring one of the world’s most iconic landmarks.
We decided to take a weekend trip to Agra and stayed overnight, arriving around 8 PM after our train was delayed. As we were three girls traveling alone, we were a bit nervous at first. But when we called the hotel, Arbaz—the owner—himself came to pick us up with his elder sister, which instantly put us at ease. We were also starving, so they kindly prepared a homemade meal for us, which turned out to be delicious and very comforting. We had booked a standard room without any special requests—no pickup, no dinner—but they still went above and beyond to make sure we felt welcome. The room was spotlessly clean, with an extra blanket, plug-in heaters, and a hot water heater—perfect for the cool evening. To our surprise, there was also free Wi-Fi and a TV, which made the stay even more enjoyable. The family is incredibly warm and welcoming. In the morning, Arbaz gave us great local tips about the city and helped us understand taxi fares—super helpful! This experience truly exceeded our expectations. It’s not just about the comfortable room or the thoughtful touches—it’s the genuine hospitality that makes this place stand out. If you're visiting Agra, I highly recommend staying here.

It's a fantastic choice if you're looking for comfort, convenience, and quality meals in Agra.
Staying at this homestay in September was an unforgettable experience. The host, Ali, is simply amazing—warm, incredibly kind, and highly professional. The room was beautifully decorated with great taste and spotlessly clean; I truly didn’t want to leave. I wish I had stayed longer so I could have tried the delicious home-cooked meals prepared by his wife—definitely a must-try on my next visit! What made it even more special was how Ali kept sharing stunning photos of the flowers on his lovely terrace. It felt like being part of a quiet, peaceful home away from home. If you're visiting Agra, this place is a gem—exceptional hospitality, serene atmosphere, and genuine warmth. I’ll be back!
The room size was adequate for our short stay, and since this is a budget-friendly property, I didn’t expect anything luxurious. The location is convenient—just a short walk from major attractions like the Taj Mahal, making it ideal for travelers on a tight schedule. Breakfast was surprisingly good—fresh, well-prepared, and offered a decent variety. However, the lack of housekeeping throughout our entire stay was disappointing. We never had clean towels, fresh linens, or even basic tidying up, which made the experience feel less than hygienic. If the staff improved their cleaning routine, this hotel could be a solid choice for budget-conscious visitors who prioritize location and value over luxury. As it stands, it’s a decent option if you’re not too particular about cleanliness.
Our stay at Lemon Tree Hotel Agra turned out to be a real highlight, especially since the area isn’t very touristy and is quite a distance from major attractions. The restaurant truly saved our night—great food quality, delicious meals, and excellent service. Yes, the price is slightly above average, but honestly, it was totally worth it. Special shoutout to Arun and Himanshu—they were absolutely amazing, always helpful and friendly. Sanjeev also went above and beyond to assist us. The whole team made us feel welcome and well taken care of. From comfort to hospitality, everything was top-notch. If you're visiting Agra, this hotel is definitely a strong choice. We’ll definitely come back.
