Good and quick room service. View of Taj Mahal from rooftop also splendid. Allow us 2 check in even before 12noon.
Unfortunately during our stay there was a problem with their wifi (the whole 1 night stay). If not, I would have given better rating.

I had a good stay at this hotel. The room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast’s spread was good too. I also had tasty dinner at their packed and happening rooftop restaurant. Hotel staff were friendly and helpful. My only complain is that when I had my shower, the floor was a bit flooding.
