The Hotel

A restaurant view the mausoleum itself would approve of

Hotel Sidhartha has welcomed guests in Agra's Taj Ganj quarter since 1986, close enough to the Taj Mahal's western gate that you can walk to the ticket counter in minutes. The Shahjahan Garden walk is just 300 metres away, and Agra Fort sits about 2 kilometres from the Taj Mahal itself. Twenty-one rooms and an in-house restaurant keep things simple: clean beds, hot water on schedule, and a front desk that never closes.

  • 80 m to Taj Mahal (West Gate)
  • 300 m to Shahjahan Garden Walk
  • Est. 1986 family-run since
  • 21 rooms, AC & Non-AC

Good To Know

Before you arrive, a few honest notes

01

Please Note

Property is located near the western gate of Taj Mahal. Due to security reasons, no vehicles are allowed in the street leading to the property — the last stretch is on foot.

We don't run an airport or station pickup service. No parking available on-site — plan your own transport to the drop-off point nearest the gate.

03

Hot water has set hours

Hot water is available 7–10 AM and 7–10 PM. Outside those windows, taps run cold.

04

Agra Fort, close by

Agra Fort is about 2 kilometres from the Taj Mahal — an easy add-on if you're spending the day sightseeing.
