Hidden away in the suburbs of Agra, Ekaa Villa is a simple boutique hotel baked with character.
Its owners Udit, Vasu and Abid will go to any effort to make you feel welcome, from its 13 gorgeous but quirky rooms and their unique designs, to their dinner menus, stuffed with wholesome traditional recipes.
When you’re not marvelling at the Taj Mahal just a short walk away, you can enjoy one of the hotel’s many experiences, from tours through artisans’ workshops, to turtle-spotting along the Yamuna river, to an intimate afternoon tea. Ekaa Villa is an ideal sanctuary from the roar of Agra, where we can see ourselves feeling right at home.
What we love
- Each of the hotel’s rooms boasts its own colour scheme, all showcasing traditional Indian designs
- Their exceptional home-cooked meals are made with locally sourced ingredients, and their recipes have been perfected over generations
- Well-located to let you explore Agra
- The hotel offers various experiences, from a guided tour of its heritage landmarks to a romantic afternoon tea at sunset
Located a little further out from the Taj Mahal than some other boutique hotels, but still only a 10-minute drive down the Taj East Gate Road
All food is vegetarian, but it's delicious
The rooms do not have televisions in them, but we think this complements the hotel’s traditional style
Families are welcome, but amenities are not designed with families in mind.
Located along Fatehabad Road, a 10-minute drive from the Taj Mahal in
Agra.
