Mansingh Palace

Theme of this hotel to make guest feel like a palace. This group having three properties Jaipur , Ajmer & Agra. Compare to modern hotel segment like Radisson , Holiday inn etc., it seems dull but for a night if you like to feel in a historic days , choose this hotel to go back in past.

The hotel is obviously used significantly by tour groups visiting the Taj Mahal. Must people I suspect stay only for one night hence high turnover of customers. The room we were allocated faced onto a very busy street and intersection. The noise generated by traffic went well into the early hours and constant horns. The room had no double glazing. While quite spacious accommodation, the internet was intermittent. Caution if with children. Our room was on the 4th floor and window could open wide. Safety issue. Breakfast was reasonable and typical at Indian hotel. Staff on the desk were not overly knowledgeable and in fact did not even know that the Gatimaan Express trains to Delhi ran from Agra in the evening. Not a cheap hotel. Various eating places close by. Including a Pizza Hut! About 1km or so from Taj Mahal. Busy road intersection.

Nice on the whole

Rooms a bit dated. It was supposed to be a smoke free room but when I checked in the cleaners had not cleaned the room properly, cigarette ash all over.

Nice hotel with nice rooms
