The staff was wonderful and was so helpful for my entire trip. The room was clean and the room service was excellent. 10/10 definitely recommend this for anyone looking to stay in Agra and see the Taj Mahal. Only a 2 minute walk from the Taj Mahal which is a huge plus!

Excellent guesthouse
Rather than a hotel, this is a guesthouse. Vikrant and his family are very welcoming and kind. They'll do their very best for a smooth stay in Agra. Breakfast, lunch and dinner can be organized for you, and Vikrant will also make a private vehicle available for your visits, in particular in Fathepur Sikri (for a very competitive rate). Your hosts will make sure you avoid all sorts of scams unfortunately common in very touristy Agra! I do recommend totally 100%!

We really enjoyed our quick stay at The Orchid Retreat in Agra, India! I was surprised how close we were staying to the Taj Mahal, as we were able to walk there to get in line & buy tickets in advance online. The staff were so timely, friendly, & helpful with Taj arrangements and information. The rooms were well maintained and cleaned nicely. The food was very nice. It’s a family run facility, as I really enjoyed that and liked supporting a family business. When in Agra in the future, we will be staying there again! Thanks 😊!

As a solo female traveler, I felt safe and welcomed at the Orchid retreat homestay. The host Vikrant is incredibly attentive, and the homestay is located in a quiet & secure area. The room was clean and cozy, and the homemade meals were delicious. Taj Mahal is just walking from here. I highly recommend this place for a comfortable and secure stay in Agra!

I had a wonderful one-night stay at The Orchid Retreat Homestay in Agra. As a foreign traveler, I was welcomed with warmth and hospitality, making me feel completely at ease. The room was clean, cozy, and equipped with all the essentials. The location was convenient, allowing easy access to the Taj Mahal and other local attractions. What stood out the most was the personalized attention from the hosts, who went above and beyond to ensure my stay was comfortable and enjoyable. I highly recommend this homestay for anyone looking for an authentic and peaceful stay in Agra.

Séjour d’une nuit très agréable, chambre propre et lit confortable. 5 étoiles pour le service : le gérant de l’hôtel nous a éviter de nous faire arnaquer par notre chauffeur de taxi et nous a aider à réserver notre bus pour Jaipur. Je conseille fortement.
