• Thierry (10/5): - Très bon rapport qualité prix. Propreté irréprochable et excellent petit déjeuner. Très bonne situation : à 15min à pieds de l'entrée est du Taj Mahal. Parfait pour y être a l'ouverture ! Personnel gentil et réactif; Manager de bons conseils. Je recommande cette adresse .😁 Rien
• Andrew (10/5): - Friendly staff, clean and spacious rooms and facilities. Not applicable
• Prabhu (10/5): Very good stay and worth the money. - it was a very good stay. My family enjoyed and all facilities were good Nothing
• Maret (9/5): Two female travellers, felt very safe and family wonderful hosts - The family are wonderful , you are made very welcome
• Isabell (10/5): Un séjour parfait et ressourçant - Vraiment un séjour exceptionnel dans ce Homestay situé très proche de l’entrée du Taj Mahal dans un quartier calme. Les propriétaires et leur personnel sont charmants et vous aident à bien organiser votre séjour. Nous avons particulièrement apprécié leur terrasse sur le toit transformée en véritable jardin botanique. Il y a des magnifiques plantes partout qui donnent beaucoup de charme et le service est impeccable avec un bon petit-déjeuner copieux et savoureux. Nous avons tellement apprécié que nous avions prolongé notre séjour. Vraiment rien à critiquer
• Chien-Wen (3/5): Ok for 1 night but otherwise inconvenient - Close to Taj Mahal East gate. If you plan on going at sunrise, walking to East gate in the dark is very doable. 1. Aside from convenience to East gate of Taj Mahal, it is inconvenient to everything else. You cannot easily walk or even drive from East to West gate once outside of Taj Mahal even though Google Maps and Uber says you can. It goes through small streets, really impoverished areas with dead ends, etc. believe me I tried multiple times. Everything else - Agra Fort, Baby Taj. Etc is in the West side. Driving requires going on the big roads, ie taking a big loop south first. This meant Uber rides cost more, drivers got lost, or dropped me off part way, or tried to drop me off at the west gate to avoid having to drive to east side. Also, it's located off a pedestrian type street that doesn't allow car or tuk-tuk traffic so I had to walk 5-7 min each time to use uber. There were a few tuk-tuks nearby but they asked double the fare shown on uber. If you stay one night to go to Taj at dawn, this is probably ok but otherwise I would stay near west gate. 2. There's not a lot to eat nearby except tourist restaurants which is expensive. Booking was suppose to include breakfast which wasn't offered on either morning. There's no good street food there though I had great street food elsewhere in Agra. There is a terrace but it doesn't have a view of Taj like other places .There is a good coffee shop about a block or two away with a terrace rooftop with a decent view. 3. The second night there was a party/ bar that played music so loud it felt like it was inside my room. This continued till 12am and was pretty stressful. Staff was nice.
• kazuki (10/5): - オーナーがとても親切でした。 ホスピタリティを感じました。 宿もとても清潔でタージマハルまで歩いて行ける距離にあります。 とてもおすすめです！
• christine (8/5): - La literie est très confortable, la chambre agréable et fonctionnelle. Le personnel est très gentil.
• jgaur (8/5): Excellent Stay - Excellent staff. Staff was very helpful. commute was easy because hotel staff helped me cab for pick up from airport. For local commute hotel staff helped to get autos easily. Room was spacious. . Nice bathroom. Very satisfying room. Compared to other places i have booked in the past this was quite clean and spacious. The main door lock was difficult to close and the second door had some gaps needs to be closed. Restaurant for bfast close to the hotel called Udupi was very expensive. Wish had more restaurant options options close by.
• Juliet (8/5): Great base for visiting the Taj Mahal - Modern, clean rooms in a quiet location very convenient for visiting the Taj. This homestay is on the pedestrian area leading up to the East entrance to the Taj Mahal. So away from beeping horns and only a short walk to reach the Taj, which we greatly appreciated so early in the morning. Welcoming friendly staff.
• Karlis (10/5): Exceptional -
• Shashin (10/5): Exceptional -
• Stephen (9/5): An excellent choice for visiting Taj Mahal - Very nice large room. Nice staff and owner very social and jolly. Walking distance from Taj Mahal. Limited food choices in the area.
• Keven (9/5): Superb - Friendly helpful staff, room spacious and very clean, good bathroom with plenty of hot water. Great location. Good rooftop terrace and food Zilch
• Rafeena (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ruth (8/5): Good value hotel within easy walking distance of the Taj Mahal - Beautiful roof terrace with a great view of the Taj Mahal. Delicious food and attentive service. Location is excellent - a short walk from the Eastern entry gate. We left around 6am and arrived in good time for sunrise. Helpful staff. One of our party was sick and we were easily able to extend use of the room at a fair price. Nice to have a kettle in the room and decent WiFi. Shower in one of the rooms had low pressure and was cold but it was fine in the other room.
• Christopher (7/5): Handy for Taj Mahal - Perfect location to get to the Taj Mahal (apparently some visitors to Agra include this site on their itineraries). Just a few minutes walk along a road now largely closed to traffic and newly paved. Comfortable room with all that could be asked for and nice staff. Three is no restaurant but there is an internal windowless room to take breakfast. Overall good value. No restaurant.
• John (10/5): Excellent hotel. - Excellent hotel, quiet location, 15 mins walk from Taj Mahal East Gate (the less busy gate) along a paved quiet road where no cars allowed. Nicely furnished. Spacious, clean and comfortable room. Very helpful friendly people. Very good breakfast. Small pretty rooftop tables with potted plants.
• Kay (7/5): Good -
• Tranquillini (6/5): Pleasant -
• Ia92 (7/5): Good -
• Marek (10/5): Close to Taj Mahal, comfortable stay for a reasonable price. - The location is excellent, just next to the Visitor Center which provides transportation to the East Gate. A bit off the main road so the noise is negligible (think India drivers and horns). If you want to walk the way, it is around 15 minutes walk. On the other side, Uber or any other transportation will get you really close to the facility (definitely a plus, as the road is closed for public traffic after the visitor center). The owner is very friendly and the staff is helpful without being intrusive. I really liked the experience. I haven't used any dining option as it is provided on request and not within the Homestay itself. But that comes with many hotels in India, so quite standard.
• Shounik (10/5): Exceptional -
• غلامی (10/5): Exceptional -
