The Gateway Hotel at Agra has an enviable position right opposite the Taj Mahal. As a result most of the 100 rooms have a grandstand view of this world famous monument. As well as the view, rooms also come with a mini-bar, WiFi, cable TV, safe, air-conditioning and a private bathroom. A number of bars and restaurants are dotted around the hotel offering up Indian, Continental and Oriental dishes, but the hotel's showpiece is the new age Sky Deck Restaurant which provides a rare opportunity to witness the changing colours of the majestic Taj Mahal as you dine. The hotel also has a large swimming pool, a fitness centre and a spa. Local excursions can be arranged from reception.
