Jaypee Palace Hotel

We loved everything .The staff were brilliant and ensured us were safe in yr day trips with cars not provided by them , invited u to try Indian breakfast for experience, gave me lots of milk and tea in my room as I’m a tea fanatic.Restaurants were nice .The grounds are huge with a big pool , beautiful gardens with geese and birds.Bed was the best in our trip to India; room was big, bathroom big with many toilets .i would have given this 20 out of 10 if I could apart from the fact an Indian wedding was held for 3 days out of 5 we were there and the guests were noisy at 3am.There is also a bowling alley and puppet show.its five minute tuk tuk ride from the taj( go with KK the lovely old man we encountered for trips around Agra …500 rupees for the day for 2 people…see Taj Mahal, red fort , Taj nature trail , view of Taj from river , drop at a nice restaurant.or just go Taj for 100 rupees…. Great man and sons)

The security need to tell wedding guests to be quite in the corridors as they let there children scream at 3am disturbing our sleep.Adults also shouting

Location, room

Aircondition doesn’t work properly in our room, there was no room service at all. The room was not cleaned, we need to call to ask for changing the towels, water and even toilet paper - not a standard of 5 star hotel

Excellent food, ambience

Everything perfect

Beautiful inside and outside

Nothing it was all perfect

Everything.

With dynamic pricing I paid 20% more than my colleague for an identical room on the same night. We booked within a day or so of each other.

We stayed in one of the deluxe rooms, which are the lowest priced. The room was large and comfortable with mini fridge, ironing and tea/coffee making facilities. There was plenty of storage and the plug sockets took English 3 pin plugs so no need for an adapter. We had a lovely courtyard view from our terrace which was furnished with a table and two chairs. The hotel staff were lovely, so polite and respectful. We used the on-site Chinese restaurant twice as the food there was amazing! Breakfast was served in the buffet restaurant and there was a wide variety to choose from. The staff in both restaurants were helpful and polite. The pool area was gorgeous, only a handful of people seem to use it during the day. It was lovely to sit by the pool watching the parakeets flying around! The grounds were large and well kept and we enjoyed strolling through them looking at the interesting flora and fauna. The location was good for visiting theTaj Mahal - only a short, cheap taxi or auto ride away. The Taj itself was beyond all expectations and we visited twice. Had we been staying longer we would have gone again! We also visited Kalakriti Cultural & Convention centre which is just down the road, to watch the ‘Mohabbat the Taj‘ show which was wonderful! There was a wedding on at the hotelwhen we were there and we were lucky enough to be invited to join the celebrations, which was amazing! Although we went to bed before the celebrations had finished, we couldn’t hear any noise from our room. All in all a fantastic hotel which the photos do not do justice. We would definitely return.

The only picky point I can think of was that there were only 3 coat hangers in the wardrobe, although this didn’t affect us personally as I always bring folding travel hangers as hotels rarely provide enough.
