I recently stayed at Hotel Sidharth in Agra and had a mixed experience. The hotel is conveniently located a stone's throw away from the Taj Mahal, which provided 24-hour police security--a great plus for families. The hotel was filled with many foreign tourists, adding to its lively atmosphere. While the rooms were generally clean and comfortable, I did encounter an issue with the plumbing. The basin pipe in the bathroom was not properly fixed, and the bathroom was stinky at times, though it was manageable with the exhaust fan. On the positive side, I was pleasantly surprised by an upgrade from a regular room to an air-conditioned room. The hotel also offers a fantastic free luggage storage service after check-out, which was incredibly convenient. The staff was friendly and accommodating, and the hotel owner, Mr. Sidharth, ensured a welcoming environment. Despite our late check-in, Mr. Sidharth arranged for one of his staff members to take a family picture of the Taj Mahal from the hotel terrace. The on-site restaurant offered a variety of delicious dishes, with a menu that caters well to vegetarians--a plus in a city known for its Mughal heritage. Additionally, the nearby market offers economical handicraft purchases, saving both time and money compared to visiting more popular markets like Sadar Bazar or Kinari Bazar. I stayed for two days based on the hotel's overwhelming reviews, and while it may not be a 3-star or 4-star hotel, its services are comparable. Considering the price, the negatives can be overlooked. The rating should definitely be upgraded to at least 3-star, not 1-star. Overall, Hotel Sidharth has some great services to offer.

I was at the sidhartha for two nights. The staff is exceptionally nice (they even let me check out and leave my luggage with them for a couple hours without charging me extra), the food was good and the location is amazing. The only problem was I didn't get the exact room booked and the room itself did leave a bit to be desired, but you go there for Agra so it doesn't really matter. Overall pretty good, would definitely recommend, especially if you're a solo traveller and are looking for a place near the taj mahal that's not too expensive.
Only the location is good. Rooms are cozy with no lights. No mobile tower was there. Their wifi was horrible. The main person in reception was rude as hell. I could have had a big argument if not to compose myself. They charge extra for early check in. But there were no other customers there and the room was ready. The food manager was a straight up liar. They mixed Onion in jain food and just lied. After finding out there was a full argument and then they changed it. I will say do not stay here just for the location.
Hotel Sidhartha is a perfect place to stay near the Taj Mahal! The location is unbeatable--just a short walk to the monument, which made my visit super convenient. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The staff was friendly and helpful, ensuring a pleasant stay. The in-house restaurant served delicious food, and the overall atmosphere was peaceful. If you're looking for a budget-friendly stay near the Taj Mahal with great service, this is the place to be. Highly recommended!
The hotel was under some renovation. There was definitely a plumbing issue in the bathroom, and an all-pervasive stench filled the place. ||The service is quite good and the restaurant staff very efficient. ||The proximity to the Taj Mahal made it worth spending a night.
I have recently stayed in this hotel on my last trip to Agra. its been a wonderful stay here. staffs were very cooperative and hospitable. rooms were cozy and comfortable. food was good. and specially the location which is amazing. its exactly within 100 meters from Taj Mahal West gate within restricted area. Had an wonderful experience here.
Stayed here for a night recently. Decent rooms - clean and tidy. Food and service are up to the mark as well. Best thing about the hotel is the location - right adjacent to the West Gate of Taj Mahal! The management is courteous. Overall a nice stay.
Our stay was wonderful! Just few steps from the iconic Taj Mahal, the hotel is located in a highly secure zone. The restaurant's food was absolutely delicious. My family and I enjoyed our time there, and we especially appreciated the easy early check-in. Booking through Goibibo resulted in a great deal.
