A group of us visited Gwalior on official business and were pleasantly surprised at how professional, courteous, and amazingly accomadating the staff at Usha Kiran were towards us. While we only stayed one night, it was enough to tell our friends that if in Gwalior this is the place to stay! Particularly, we had one individual with a gluten allergy... More

A typical royal property being run by Taj Group with amazing service. The restaurant serves delicious meals while musicians perform ghazal and old classic songs. Walk around the property to admire the decor and artwork of the Royals.

Our experience of this resort was enhanced by having a VIP in our midst, which did mean we all were upgraded and treated 'with kid gloves', but the fact that this was done with great professionalism was a credit to all the staff involved. This must be one of the Taj group's 'Top Flight' establishments - the restaurant is top... More

1.Atmosphere was almost sad and dull due to the unnecessarily dim lighting. 2.Live music was being played but wasn't upto the Taj level. 3.Service was slow and were repeatedly making mistakes in bringing the number of plates and glasses and even forks. 4.Unlike royal butlers, the waiters' uniform and even the tablecloth were dirty. 5.Malai Kofta was hard and the...

I walk in and I completely understand that they are sold out the night before and I would have to wait. So they decide to walk me to the restaurant for some breakfast, not to forget it was very substandard and they switch off the ac and I m sweating. It was a silent message get lost don't wait here....

This hotel was a wonderful surprise . Beautiful setting with authentic ambience. You can imagine being transported back a 100 years to a different era. The original features of the guest house ( as it was built) have been kept and the staff cannot do enough for you. Jasil and his team made our stay very special. I will be... More

This hotel is a heritage property, besides the actual palace where the royal family still lives. Taj has done a lot to renovate this property and have actually transformed into a nice family.

Firstly, Gwalior and Gwalior Fort are well worth seeing. I don't think Gwalior gets enough credit as a tourist destination as people head to Agra. The Palace is a superb facility on very nice grounds. The rooms however were a little "tired" and not well decorated. With a little 'sprucing up' this could be a spectacular facility. It is in...

I really appreciate the service provided by Usha Kiran Palace & enjoyed the stay. Rooms are very spacious & nicely furnished. The location is good not very far from the city but feels like isolated. The best I like is the service & politeness of every individual. The food quality is very good.
