One of the best hotels in the world with exceptional ambiance, hospitality, service and views of the Taj. I celebrated my birthday here and would not have done it anywhere else. The smallest details in the room, restaurant and hotel are impeccable. Thanks to Rohit and his team for the outstanding quality of service and hospitality.

I have been to numerous hotels but this one beats all of them in service. The service is beyond excellence. All the staff members treat you like a royal. They notice what you want or need sometimes even before you yourself know. From the moment they welcome you (and what a welcome thay was!) till you leave, you will be taken care off in the most superb way. The view from the rooms is stunning, the food is fine, the rooms spacious and with all the amenities you can think of.

Stay Overview Our three-night stay at The Oberoi Amarvilas, Agra was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived until the day we left, every detail was taken care of with genuine warmth, professionalism, and impeccable attention to detail. Anniversary Experience As we were celebrating our wedding anniversary, the team went above and beyond to make it truly unforgettable. They remembered the occasion, surprised us with beautiful gifts and thoughtful touches, and made us feel incredibly special throughout our stay. Every member of staff treated us with such kindness and care that we genuinely felt like royalty. No request was ever too big or too small. Dining Experience A special mention also goes to the incredible restaurant team. As this was our very first visit to India, I was a little apprehensive because I don’t eat spicy or hot chilli food. I needn’t have worried. The restaurant staff went far beyond our expectations, taking the time to patiently explain every dish on the menu, offering thoughtful recommendations, and happily adapting meals to suit my preferences without ever making me feel like it was an inconvenience. Their knowledge, warmth, and genuine desire to ensure we enjoyed every meal made dining at the hotel an experience in itself. Every breakfast and dinner was exceptional, and we looked forward to each meal knowing we would be looked after so well. Taj Mahal Tour One of the absolute highlights of our visit was, of course, the Taj Mahal. The hotel arranged a private guided tour with Mr. Kishore, and we simply couldn’t have asked for a better guide. His knowledge, passion, professionalism, and ability to bring the history of the Taj Mahal to life were exceptional. He shared fascinating insights that transformed what could have been just a visit into a truly unforgettable experience. Mr. Kishore also turned out to be an outstanding photographer. He knew all the best locations and angles and helped us capture some incredible photographs that we’ll treasure for the rest of our lives. Even though the heavens opened and we got absolutely soaked by the rain, his enthusiasm never faded, and he ensured we still had an amazing time. Those memories, and the beautiful photos, will stay with us forever. Local Exploration Afterwards, we explored the back streets of Agra, did a little shopping, and discovered some fantastic handmade shoes. It was an eye-opening experience that gave us a wonderful glimpse into the local culture. Final Verdict If you’re visiting Agra, do yourself a favour and stay at The Oberoi Amarvilas. Yes, it’s one of the more luxurious hotels in the city, but it is worth every single penny. The exceptional service, world-class hospitality, breathtaking views of the Taj Mahal, unforgettable dining, and the genuine care shown by every member of staff make it an experience rather than simply a hotel stay. To everyone at The Oberoi Amarvilas, thank you for making our wedding anniversary so incredibly special. You exceeded every expectation we had and made our first trip to India truly unforgettable. A heartfelt thank you also to Mr. Kishore for his outstanding guidance, fascinating stories, and incredible photography skills. We leave with wonderful memories that will stay with us for a lifetime, and we already look forward to returning.

Our stay at The Oberoi in Agra was absolutely exceptional from the very first moment. The level of service we experienced was truly sensational and unlike anything we have encountered before. During our stay, our child unfortunately became sick, and the staff immediately stepped in to help without us even needing to ask. Their attentiveness, care, and genuine concern were remarkable and made a difficult moment much easier for our family. This level of hospitality is something very special. The restaurant was equally outstanding. The service was flawless, and the food was of the highest possible quality. Every dish was prepared to perfection, and the entire dining experience was simply sensational. We have stayed in many hotels around the world, but the service here was truly on another level. Everything felt thoughtful, personal, and perfectly executed. We would return here at any time without hesitation and can wholeheartedly recommend this hotel to everyone. It is an unforgettable place with extraordinary hospitality.
