An excellent small hotel run by a very friendly family, close to shops, restaurants and just a short distance to both Agra Fort and the Taj Mahal - walkable for the energetic or a quick tuk-tuk ride to either. The standard of the rooms was the best we encountered in India at this price point. The central communal area between the rooms was a bonus...

The Place is wonderful, I highly highly recommend. It is very authentic (Vikram’s family lives next door and you get to chat to them, wonderful people), impeccably clean, inexpensive and very welcoming. Vikram and his family are wonderful hosts. I got all the advice on what to see with very clear directions and without trying to make money on me, got a lot of help - to get a taxi, to buy another suitcase, to buy sweets for the family. I ate mainly at this hotel because the food was homemade, fresh and tasted amazing. I rested in the hotel and worked and it really felt comfortable. I got Taro cards reading from Vikram’s wife which I also really enjoyed, talked to other visitors in the hotel, and overall had a wonderful time. This place allowed me to recover from very noisy environment outside, so I really enjoyed it. I feel Vikram and his family really care about their guests. Thanks so much for making my stay in India so wonderful. I wish there were more places like yours other places I travel.

We appreciated the gentle and kind staff, always ready to help us and very flexible. No problem with communication, they texted us before the start of our stay and sent us additional information, maps of Agra with main attractions and other suggestions. The position is also great: very close to Taj Mahal, restaurants and souvenir stores. Thank you...

An exceptional guesthouse that truly is a quiet retreat! The design is excellent with eight rooms over two floors. Each floor has a communal area for meals and conversation where you can mix with other guests in the hotel should you wish to. Vikrant and his family are wonderful hosts and the food is sensational. I highly recommend that you try the poori with aloo curry for breakfast! Lunch and dinner are just as good. Great veg options. Easy access to the Taj Mahal. In fact, you can walk! The photos you see on google and booking.com are all accurate.
