Budget hotels in Agra
The main number of the budget hotels is situated around Taj-Mahal. From one point of view it is very convenient, but at the same time it is the most dirty district of the city (with monkeys on the roofs, rats inside the buildings and waiters who can not read and write). While choosing where to live, be very careful! In the most places there is no hot water (you will get it only by ordering beforehand). It is necessary to check everything, including the presence of bed-linen.

* Tourist Rest House, Balu Ganj, +91 (562) 23514903. Recommended by Lonely Planet but will disappoint many travelers. Does not have hot water or AC vents, TVs do not work and staff can be surly. Be prepared to bargain hard for rooms. Rs. 50-125.

Mid-range hotels in Agra
* Hotel Mandakini Villas, Fatehabad Road, Purani Mandi, Taj Ganj (Next to Western Gate of Taj Mahal), Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India, +91 5626453854. Hotel Mandakini Villas in Agra, India is just 200 meters from the Taj Mahal’s West Gate. It offers air-conditioned rooms each with cable TV with 100 channels, broadband Internet connection, private bathroom with hot & cold water, and direct-dial phone. Rates start at 2,190 INR.
* Laurie’s Hotel, Mahatma Gandhi Road, +91 562 2364536 (fax: +91 562 2268045). An old colonial hotel from the British era (some say it hasn’t been upgraded since!), Laurie’s retains some of the charm of traveling in India in days of yore. Rooms with impossibly high ceilings (fans, no aircon), lead off from verandahs with nice lawns outside. A swimming pool from yesteryears graces the lawn (unfortunately closed in the winter). But you can get British era service with ‘bed tea’, excellent freshly made chicken curry and rice to order, and creaky plumbing. Some people will love it, others hate it, but you can’t be indifferent to Laurie’s!
* Hotel Raj. Directly in front of the central entry of the Taj Mahal, simple but clean. About Rs. 200.
