I originally booked for Hotel Sheela but wound up at their partner hotel Sheela Inn. The Inn has a roof-top restaurant, but the view of the Taj is at the very top, not actually where you sit to eat. The restaurant is just table and chairs; there is no real ambiance. And many items that are on the menu could... More

Hotel Sheela Inn is a good budget option in Agra. It is just around the corner from the ticket counter of the Taj Mahal, from where you have to buy your entrance ticket and get free transportation to the Taj Mahal's east gate. The rooms are quite spacious and have marble floors. Our room (including bed and bedsheets) and bathroom... More

We struggled to find available affordable accommodation in Agra so settled for this place. We got in late but were woken early by the people in the next room who were showering at 4.30am because the walls are paper thin. The room was basic and small but at least it was clean. If we went back we would not plan... More

The room and bathroom were clean, but the "hot" shower was just warm, not hot at all. The room was freezingly cold at night. The rooftop restaurant was comfortable, decorated with a variety of colorful flowering plants. The staffs are easy to get along with and nice. More

Agra was a get-in-get-out city for me, so I was just looking for a basic place to get a few hours of shut eye. I called Hotel Sheela but they were full, so they made a reservation for Sheela Inn for me. The room and bathroom was clean, however there wasn't really any hot water when I was using the... More

Nothing fancy about the place but it was clean, hot water was reliable, and the rooftop restaurant was good with great service. It was a cheap stay and we were pleasantly surprised that we got the kind of cleanliness and service that we did for what we paid (650INR). Would definitely stay again. It's very close to the Taj tourist... More

We had booked at Hotel Sheela but arrived a day early due to a change in transport. They were full so we went to Sheela Inn. The service was friendly from the outset. The rooms were clean but the bathroom wasn't really. The restaurant was good & the staff friendly. The water was hot and didn't run out. The lights... More

We had reserved at the Hotel Sheela but were of course told that our room had not yet been vacated because the occupant was ill. Not wishing to make a fuss and inconvenience someone who was likely suffering from Delhi Belly we accepted that they switch us to the Sheela Inn. We looked at a few rooms and picked the... More

I booked a room with Sheela Hotel ("our pick" on Lonely Planet), arrived on the reserved date, and was shipped to this hotel because I arrived before check-in time and the hotel refused to provide baggage sotrage until I could check in. So I had to stay at the 'sister-hotel', the room wasn't the cleanest and water was lukewarm. The... More

Room was pretty clean and cool. We had no hot water, and people could see in through the window in the bathroom. Otherwise, the staff seemed to be fairly friendly, though the whole place lacked atmosphere and appeared to be pretty empty when we were there. More
