The Oberoi Group, Trident, Agra
Trident, Agra is a low-rise hotel on Fatehabad Road, built around a courtyard inspired by the Taj Mahal, a ten-minute drive from its East Gate.
Overview
Trident, Agra sits on Fatehabad Road, a ten-minute drive from the Taj Mahal's East Gate and about three hours by car from New Delhi. The hotel is low-rise, arranged around a central courtyard whose layout takes its cue from the Taj Mahal itself. Rooms and suites look out over landscaped gardens, the swimming pool or that courtyard rather than the monument directly; guests wanting a view of the Taj are directed to Mehtab Bagh, about 2.9 km away, where the gardens frame the building across the river, particularly at sunset.
The hotel has 135 rooms and suites across four categories: Deluxe Garden View Rooms, Deluxe Pool View Rooms, Premier Garden View Rooms with Patio, and Suites. Every room has a picture window, air-conditioning, high-speed internet for up to four devices and 24-hour room service. A limited number of smoking rooms and wheelchair-accessible rooms can be requested at the time of booking. The hotel draws up to 25% of its electricity from solar power, runs its own water bottling plant to cut single-use plastic, and has electric vehicle charging points on site.
Food is served at The Restaurant, which covers Indian, continental, Asian and Italian dishes alongside grills, and at The Bar, which carries wines, spirits and cocktails. In-room dining runs around the clock. Trident Spa, open to guests aged 16 and over, offers a short menu of signature and Ayurvedic-style treatments, and sits alongside a 24-hour fitness centre and a swimming pool with seasonal opening hours. Families can use the Kids' Club, which runs magic shows, pottery and puppet performances; two children under 12 can share their parents' room on existing bedding at no extra charge. The hotel also has two meeting rooms and an outdoor event space for conferences, weddings and private celebrations.
