Guest Reviews
- Mohd (10/5): Good hotel in reasonable rates - Room was amazing, although it was small, service was excellent staff was very good, and the best thing is food which is very delicious. Overall good experience highlly recommended to others
- Verified traveler (2/5): Dirty - The hotel gave us the incorrect room. Finally, when we received another room with seperate beds, it was extremely dirty and cold. There was visible dirt on the doors and walls. Also it smelt like a dog had been sleeping in the room. The phone was sticky. The bed uncomfortable. The staff were not very helpful until we got angry with them for making us wait 30 mins to answer 1 question. Also, the ad on hotels.com is incorrect. It is not close to the Taj Mahal at all. It’s about 30-40 mins walk away - not 1 min. I would not recommend anyone stay here.
- Raymon (2/5): typical backpacker hovel and overpriced. - this is the worst hotel i have stayed in and i have stayed in many. it is dirty, poorly finished, the staff lie and the description of the rooms on hotels.com are lies. if you have to stay here don't bother going to India, you can't afford to be there and you won't enjoy it. pay just a little more and you will enjoy your trip and the Taj Mahal.. the only good thing tbere was the food and the restaurant staff, they deserve better support.
- SHASHANK (6/5): not so good..average.. - not so good..very costly food..no complimentary breakfast..wi-fi doesnot work.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Check in was fast and easy.staff was very helpful.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - I have stayed at this hotel for 2 nights. Hotel Location is good, room was clean with basic stuff. Overall my experience is good...
- Verified traveler (2/5): DISGUSTING HOTEL - Very bad hotel. Never stay here. Seriously this hotel smells really bad. You feel like vomiting with the smell. Its a very low budget hotel one of OYO ROOMS.
- sandeep (10/5): - Great
- Verified traveler (8/5): Comfortable/affordable hotel near Taj Mahal - Pros: close to Taj Mahal; hot water available for showering; nice bellboys and staff; new hotel and facilities; elevator Cons: no shower curtain so water flies everywhere in the bathroom as you shower (seems to be the norm in India)
- Venkataraman (8/5): Nice hotel to stay - Generally our stay was pleasant. Rooms were small but clean. Air conditioning was very effective. Wi-Fi was effective. Buffet Breakfast service was good. Overall recommended for stay.
- Raj (8/5): hotel is too old, and not for family with kids - for the price paid not a good option ac was working, but cigarette smoking was leaking into ac vent. staff was friendly. no hot wate
- Nat (8/5): Great location. On south gate side of Taj Mahal - This hotel was in a great location for visiting the Taj Mahal and the facilities were in good condition. The only downside was the friendliness of some of the staff. All in all, not a bad place to stay, and a great price.
- Sunit (6/5): Averagly hotel, may not opt for it again - Pros - Near to Taj Mahal and food joints and Sadar baza, Complimentary wifi and breakfast was good. Cons - Interior of room is very old,need renovation. The front of hotel is very dirty with open gutters. Service is inconsistent and room utilities are replaced only after calling room service. Phone was not working so had to goto reception to ask for everything. Restaurant and mineral water is highly over charged n expensive, avoid.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Great staff. A little out of the way though. - Great staff who go out of their way to help. Hotel's about 4 mins walk from main road but not much in the way of thins to do for tourist. Expec to take auto rickshaws.
- Verified traveler (2/5): Dirty and uncomfortable - Bathroom was dirty. Asked it to be cleaned. After 10mins my room smelt of industrial strength cleaning products and bleach. Could not open a window so the smell lingered. Staff were ok.
- Verified traveler (6/5): not great value - Hot water needs to be called in. location is out of the way. So if you stay in Agra (which i would not recommend all together) besides seeing the Taj (preferably at sun rise) get something nicer.
- Rajkumar (4/5): Nice location. - The hotel was okay. Untrained staff. They charged heavily for breakfast but the quality and service were very poor.
- Scott (10/5): Very nice hotel for the price - The hotel was clean. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The room was clean with a nice floor plan. The Resturant food and staff were also very good. I highly recommend this hotel for the price. Located near the entrance to the Taj Mahol.
- KM (8/5): Quiet location 2km from Taj Mahal - If you look for a quiet location in a good hotel 2 km from the East entrance to Taj Mahal, this is the place. Access along the Eastern road is an easy walk. New hotel provides good service and breakfast all for a reasonable price. Hot water and internet worked well.
- Rk Narula (8/5): A Very Good Budget Hotel !! - The Hotel was clean and nice. The room were of decent size. The Bath room were clean. The only thing I did not liked about the hotel was the food that served at Dinner time.( it was very BAD) though the breakfast was good.
- Paul (4/5): Disappointing - The wi-if wasn't working during our stay, our room had a broken window patched up with plastic, so was cold. There is no fruit juice with breakfast. The location is ok.
- jp traveler (4/5): Not that great of an experience - Review was good so I booked this hotel but bathroom was dirty. Hotel staff was not friendly.
- K Varun (8/5): Good hotel - Booked this hotel for my parents, although the rooms were bit small overall experience at this hotel was good.
- m (10/5): Great location - this hotel is very close to the taj mahal, that's why we chose it. we were in 3 people, room was big enough for us and it seems to be a new hotel, quite modern for agra's standards. the roof top bar/restaurant could be better and more inviting...
- Verified traveler (10/5): Nice Hotel with Comfortable and Enjoyable Stay - Very Nice Hotel With Modern rooms and Restaurant , all the amenities in the room was New and Modern , food quality and service was excellent. Rooms were nice and clean , view of taj mahal from the Roof Top Restaurant was great excellent. Breakfast at Basement Restaurant was Very Enjoyable. Overall the stay was good and comfortable. We will definitely recommend this hotel to everybody.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Beautiful Hotel , Excellent Service & Food - We got warm welcome at Hotel Crystal In upon arrival , nice rooms , friendly staff , food quality & service is excellent. Friendly atmosphere like we are at Home. Roof Top Restaurant was Very Beautiful with view of Taj Mahal and Dinner at Roof Top was very nice experience. Cleaness & hygiene of rooms and all public areas was nice. Overall the stay was Very Comfortable and Enjoyable. We recommend this hotel to everyone.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Worth for the money. - It was clean enough to spent a night. Nothing to write home about. Staff was co-operative.
- Verified traveler (2/5): Not worth it - The lobby looks nice... the rooms don't. Beds were not that comfortable, and they all needed repairs. I switched room 3 times: First room (1st floor) had broken phone, black mold across the wall, and no clothesline. Second room (2nd floor) had no wifi for the entire floor. Third room (3rd floor) I gave up; I had to screw the safe into the wall myself and the bathroom door was broken and glued together with sawdust (very noisy at night and let out the AC)!! Internet firewall blocked skype/internet calls so you had to use their R25/min long distance. For this quality of room I expected to pay about $30/night, maybe $35 max!!
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Reasonable price and Kind Staff. Recommendable for budget travellers.
- K Bailey (10/5): Handy for Taj Mahal. - Clean, modern hotel - and, by Indian standards, in a decent neighbourhood. The area is certainly safe as we walked around well after dark and felt perfectly relaxed. Whilst the hotel is 2km from the Taj Mahal, it is in fact only five minutes walk from the ticket office - and your Taj ticket includes a free transfer to the site as motor vehicles are not allowed within 2km of it, so this hotel is about as close as you can get. There's also a nice, modern shopping mall nearby with a few clean places to eat in.
- Chris (4/5): Decent location, poor service - I had no trouble getting to the local sites from the hotel. There was also a mall nearby, though most of its stores were under construction or closed. The greatest problem I had was with the service. The first night at 9:30 pm I received a call from room service asking me to order dinner. I told them I already ate outside. The next that called again at 10:30 pm, waking me up and again asking me to order dinner. The restaurant accepts the last order at 10:45 so I do not understand why they were calling then. Someone rang the room bell later that night and I didn't answer and they tried to open the door but it was bolted. I think it was hotel staff because it sounded like they unlocked it. I had told the hotel I would be checking out at 4:30 in the morning so it was irritating that this was going on so late. I complained to the reception while I was checking out. The receptionist didn't appologize, but I am not sure he understood me well.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Go there only if you do not have a choice - Food was atrocious though they did not charge us when we brought this to their notice. However, being hungry or not having your hunger be satisfied is not a state of affairs that I would like others to experience.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Decent Stay, Good Food - Overall a new property. More cleanliness required. Location- Nice Food was good.
- Balaji (4/5): Hotel crystal inn in Agra - The overall stay was average. The service of the staff is not upto the standard of a 3*** hotel. Very congested rooms and toilets. Cheap toilettries. A very average breakfast without much choice. No Value for money. Probably just recommended for 1 night stay.
- Minoti (8/5): Hotel Crystal Inn - close to Taj - A very good experience.... The hotel was clean and the staff was friendly..... The destination was close to Taj which was just 5 mins away. Will surely stay there again.... :)
- Manohar (4/5): Below Average Hotel - This was expensive hotel (specially during off season). It was advertised as 3-star, which makes sense as per the price I paid. I was told, there are two double-beds in the room. Reality was that room was small and it had only one double-bed. They had a twin size mattress on the floor (so called ... second double-bed). TV was not working. Someone looked at it and said, there is some problem in wiring. They couldn't fix it. They offered me to move to another room (smaller than what I had). I decided to stay in same room. The hallway was hot and humid (no A/C in hallway). The hotel location was quite isolated. You wouldn't want to walk around after sunset. Some positive's now. Room was clean, Air condition was working inside the room. Food was good.
- Alex (8/5): Reasonably good hotel but a little too far out - You tend to take a lot of rickshaws in Agra but due to the location, it took longer getting anywhere. That being said, the hotel was fine, clean, rooms of a good size and polite & efficient staff. The bathroom in my room (101) was a little grotty but still passable.
- Sharad (6/5): Gives a feeling that you are overcharged - the rooms are small in size(if it matters for you). The bathroom door won't close unless you do some extra power and do the same to open it. Food quality is good however, the overall ambiance of the hotel will make you feel that you paid a little extra.
- Nami (6/5): Standard Budget Hotel in India - You get what you pay for here. Hotel is rather run down. Cleanliness is questionable.
- Nagesh (8/5): Close to TajMahal - This hotel is close to TajMahal (around 1.2 miles). Hotel facilities are good. Included breakfast is good too. Staff are decent enough. I stayed with my family of 3 members. With the extra bed, room was crowded but for party of 2 it should be fine. Overall we recommend the hotel to others. Buy the tickets at TajMahal itself.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - staffs are very cooperative. Hotel is very close to TajMahal. Calm and quite. Overall I liked the hotel.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Great Hotel, but Staff Need More Work - This hotel might be the best in mid-range value in Agra. Rooms are excellent, showers are excellent, internet is good, food is good, and the Taj Mahal view from the roof is real. The only glitch I found was the rather hyperactive staff. I got calls to my room advertising various services. When I ordered room service for dinner, I was interrupted three times by knocks on the door to determine if I was done yet, and at breakfast I was asked if everything was okay what seemed like every few bites. Maybe it was just because I was there in low season?
- Alwyn (2/5): Not upto par - The hotel should not be recommended to anyone. The rooms are sub standard. We had to change rooms twice and were not satisfied. The only redeeming factor was that the hotel manager was helpful and tried to help us. But, if the rooms are not maintained, it does not help.
- TRAVELLER (8/5): One night in Crystal Inn - Although the staff was not really nice upon check in, the rest of the staff were helpful and efficient. The facilities at the hotel exceed my expectation, such as the LCD TV. The staff at the restaurant was very friendly and helpful during breakfast. Our driver tried to stay at the same hotel with discount for driver. However, he could not stand the bugs in the room that have to leave the hotel in the mid night around 1am. Heard there was bugs in the room. But not the one we stayed. Sorry about what the driver has experienced. Believe the hotel have some rooms with bugs which was not well maintained.
- Lidya (8/5): The Chrystal Inn - Agra, not bad at all... - Hotel is at pretty good location, room need a bit of upgrade, breakfast could use more variety. overall, not so bad and clean, considering Agra is a smaller city in India.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Crystal Inn, Agra - The place was suggested by Hotels.com staff. After reviewing the user reviews, I went ahead and booked this place. As expected, it's a neat and pleasant hotel. Close to Taj Mahal. Courteous staff. I would recommend this place for family stay.
- Dana (6/5): Not impressed - The rooms were pretty clean and spaciuos but there was a dreadful smell everywhere (both in the room and on the hallways). I see there is a pool on this site but I did not see it when I was there. If you are not very pretentios I recommend this hotel, but not if you want quality.
- Gwen (8/5): Great Family Hotel, accomdates for 2 kids in same room as parents. - We were very pleased with the Hotel. Our room was comfortable. They accomodated out 2 kids in our room with a double mattress on the ground. Restaurant dowmstairs was excellent, we had 3 meals there all good. Great for families. Kids loved the food. Close to a very new MALL just being built in Agra. General store / Shop across the road was convenient too. Got postcards there. McDdonalds close by too when kids are over INDIAN food.
- Ash (6/5): Crystal inn Agra - The shower curtain kept on falling down. The rooms are not as comfortable as I had expected.
- Tobi (6/5): Nothing great but ok for the price - The room was ok although the bed sheet was not as clean as one would like to have it ... well, I think it was clean but could need some bleeching ;) The Hotel is a good staring point for discovering Agra. Big downside, the hotel restaurant (downstairs) is something one better avoid, the stuff is unfrindly and table cloths as well as waiters themself ... sorry ... dirty. No place you wanna eat!!! Can't talk for the roof top restaurant as it was closed for a privat party.
