Lonely Planet review

If money is no object, look no further. By far the best hotel in Agra – some say the best in India – this place oozes style and luxury. Elegant interior design is suffused with Mughal themes, a composition carried over into the exterior fountain courtyard and swimming pool, both of which are set in a delightful water garden. All rooms (and even some bathtubs!) have wonderful views of the Taj, as do the excellent restaurantand classy cocktail bar, both of which are open to nonguests.
