Agra is beloved by international visitors for its extraordinary Taj Mahal. You may as well admire it from every angle. The Oberoi Amarvilas is an exclusive address in Agra, thanks to a truly iconic view of one of the world’s most famous monuments. Luckily, guests can enjoy the spectacle from every room at The Oberoi, all of which face the Taj. This view is certainly not all it has going on: the grounds at the Oberoi Amarvilas are picturesque with landscaped gardens, fountains, and a serene environment, a far cry from the bustling Agra streets.

The hotel was constructed in the Mughal style, and no expense was spared. The rooms have teak features, sumptuous fabrics with golden accents, and lavish marble bathrooms, a nod to princely traditions. There are 64 rooms and suites, and some Premier rooms feature balconies, perfect for a private romantic sunset dinner overlooking the Taj Mahal.

The Oberoi Amarvilas has one further trick up its sleeve: private golf buggy transport to and from the Taj Mahal throughout the day. When you’re not marvelling at the Taj, you can swim in the beautiful pool and spa or sit in the tea lounge. Since you’re most likely coming to witness the Taj Mahal in all its glory, the Oberoi Amarvilas is legendary, particularly at sunrise and sunset.

Ultimate - There are very few hotels we would describe as 'ultimate'. Hotels in this category must have absolutely everything anyone could want and really be aiming for the stars. These hotels generally go well above and beyond and they would always be at the very top end of the market. These are for clients looking for that extra special place.
