Had an unpleasant experience dining at the Amarvillas, which left a sour after-taste. Called to make a reservation and was told it was a 'first come first serve' basis only. When arrived at the reception, was told that there were no tables available and had to wait for 45 mins to an hour. Strangely, as I left to take dinner... more

My wife and I stayed at Amarvilas in November 2007. We were drawn in by the documented stunning views of the Taj from most of its guest rooms, restaurants, and lounges (as well as the lack of good lodging options in Agra), but we were unsure of our decision given that it was to be the most expensive hotel reservation... more

I had been sitting in a car... more

The staff were exceptional. Lovely pool area and great pool side service. The view of the Taj Mahal from the room balcony... more

I cannot believe that this hotel is consistently ranked as one of the best hotels in the world. The hotel is dated and in dire need of a renovation. The pictures of the hotel were so impressive. I was really disappointed at how shabby the hotel was. When you are outside, you could smell sewer water. Then they tried to... more
