Did what I needed.
A useful hotel within walking distance of Agra Cannt station. As will all Indian hotels it was a little noisy, but that said they were friendly and it worked for what I needed. Staff were helpful and friendly.

Big facility, rooms were good
We were stuck in Agra without a room and all hotels seemed full. We were happy to find this place. It was quite empty because the location is a bit further from the Taj but it was good.

Excellent hotel not too far from the main sights
The good thing about the hotel is that it is near the Taj Mahal and Agra Fort. The condition of the hotel is a bit on the older side but the rooms themselves are excellent and well kept.

fantastic!
as many other visitors to the city of agra, i was in it to visit and be a part of the taj mahal experience. i did just that and the hotel, tho not exactly close to the taj, it wasn't too far in that a stroll couldn't get me there on time. the walk i took in the town exposed me a bit more to what the city is all about. businesses, culture and even brought me a bit closer to experiencing the local vibe. something i absolutely appreciated.

Service needs to improve greatly
MY EXPERIENCE OF THE GRAND HOTEL: This seventy room hotel is situated about five kilometers from the Taj Mahal and the Red Fort in the very well maintained Army Cantonment area of Agra. The area is clean, safe and peaceful and a ten minute walk to the bazaar. The hotel is over priced. The rooms are very large and have a queen size or two twin beds, TV, fridge/bar and in-room heater. Hot water from the central boiler flows freely after the tap is opened for a few minutes. The washroom/toilette is also quite large and well laid-out. The rooms to the left of the reception area seem to be better than the more exposed single line of rooms on the right side of the reception. The lawns are well maintained. The Restaurant food was over-priced and had lots of MSG and commercial tomato sauce. I recommend eating elsewhere though it was difficult to find hygienic alternatives in the vicinity. Service was VERY poor. I asked for a 6.30 am wake-up call which never happened. I asked that my room NOT be cleaned as I did not want anyone entering my room but when I came back from sight seeing my room had been cleaned and the key had been left in the lock so anyone could have stolen my stuff! This is simply unacceptable. The extra charge for internet access is simply absurd as similar hotels in India and even student hostels in other parts of the world provide free internet access. The travel desk run by Nikhil Tours was helpful. . But DO bargain prize down at least one quarter WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THE GRAND HOTEL: The location, large rooms and cleanliness. The owners lived on the same property but I had no time to meet and discuss my concerns. The Travel Desk. IMPROVEMENTS: Staff must be better trained. The owners should personally address guest concerns. No MSG or commercial tomato sauce should be used in the food. THINGS TO DO: Taj Mahal, Red Fort, Deyal Bagh, Sikandara.

Handy for the station, basic but clean.
In a good location for Agra Cantt station, felt secure and safe. The room amenities weren't as booked but we were re roomed to something else that was suitable. Restaurant average and breakfast ok but lots of school kids around so staff were a bit rushed. Hotel ordered us a driver who was very good and knowledgeable. Cheap and clean but average.

First, the hotel is not three star as advertised. There is no lift, no central heating which are preconditions of a three star hotel. In my view the hotel should not give misleading star status to attract tourists.I am very, very disappointed

An okay hotel in Agra
The Grand Hotel is a reasonably good hotel in Agra, although it has probably seen better days. Rooms were of a good size. Staff are fairly helpful, although they did misplace my room key for a while! I have to say that the hotel is pretty quiet and where I was I didn't have any of the usual road noise/sound of horns etc, so certainly that was a positive. Breakfast is standard Indian.

The hotel was not what was listed while booking. We were mentioned furnished balcony with garden view but we were given room without any balcony and window facing a kitchen. No LCD TV as promised but an old TV. Soap pathetic. Overall absolutely disaster stay and will never recommend this hotel to anyone. I had paid high charges hoping good stay but now we need at least part refund as we were not given what all were promised.

The hotel was rather overstated in the Star ranking system. As far as I can say it was just somewhere to put your head down and the price certainly didn't reflect that.
