Fantastic hotel, if you get the right room
Was a nice hotel, but the room wasn’t as described in hotels.com information. There was no furnished terrace, or deep soak bath in the deluxe room. The room we were given, 112, smelled very damp and disturbed my sleep. In addition, there was no double bed, just 2 singles pushed together and made up as a double. The bed was also too short for me, due to the footboard - I’m approx 5’8” tall. On mentioning my concerns to the manager the next day though, we were upgraded to a luxury room, which did have the bathtub and the furnished terrace, and smelled better. The bed was bigger and thus more comfortable, thus I give good marks for service. Breakfast was exceptionally good.

We spent two nights at this beautiful heritage hotel, I loved the old fashioned brass padlocks on the doors. Our room was spacious, beautiful and clean, but a little dark and the blinds could not be opened. As the room opened onto an open baloney road noise could be hear thought out the night. I was told at check in that our room had been up-graded, however we booked and received a deluxe Room, so at the loss on that one. Restaurant was overpriced and food unappealing. At breakfast waiting an age for 2 omelettes to be made, despite the restaurant being mostly empty. On our second night we were given the bill after ordering 1 after dinner drink which made us feel most unwelcome. The hotel hosted a wedding during our stay, which detracted from the traditional Indian dance show by the pool on the first night and prevented us from using the pool or sleeping on the second night due to load music and fireworks. When we mentioned this to the staff on check out she just smiled at us.

Stayed at the Grand Imperial in August, the staff was very welcoming especially Mamta at the front desk who was very helpful. The rooms were clean and very specious with decor representing the time the building was built in the early 1900’s and distinctly maintains its charm. Staying here you feel like one is experiencing history, The front lawn is of a good size and feels intimate, the swimming pool is clean and a good to relax after wandering around the city. The hotel also hosts a puppet show by local artists and provides complimentary mehendi (henna) by a friendly lady named Sabiya. The breakfast is great with a good selection of Indian and continental options but the restaurant though good is a little pricy. The hotel doesn’t have a gym and the roof is accessible and you can see the Taj Mahal. Me and my family greatly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this hotel.

I highly recommend you stay at the Grand Imperial in Agra. I felt transported back in time with the architecture and beautiful garden. We got a deluxe room which was spacious and nicely decorated. At night, there was a puppet show, henna artist, and folk music. The dinner buffet featured live musicians (who were teaching guests how to play some of the instruments) and delicious North Indian dishes. They also had freshly made garlic naan brought to your table. If you're looking to treat yourself to a hotel with character, stay at the Grand Imperial. (Only thing is they say the entertainment at night is "complimentary," but the performers and artists may try to pressure you to buy their products or give money.)

It was a very frustrating experience because of the extremely loud music being played at a wedding that was being hosted in the hotel premises. Hotel was great, but they should not be renting out rooms while they are also hosting a wedding. We were so disappointed that the hotel service had simply no option to control the loud music.
