Dancers at the Oberoi

Every night the hotel featured dancers and music for the guests. They performed on the roof top by the pool. This was shot from our balcony.

Taj Mahal from our room


The middle picture is the actual distance from our room.


This is a view of the Taj Mahal from our room at the Oberoi. I did use the zoom so you can see the detail. The actual distance is about 600 meters.

Our Hotel - the Oberoi Amarvilas

This is the driver who picked us up at the train station. When we got out of the car, staff were waiting for us, addressing us by name. You don't really check in at a desk. A uniformed staff member escorts you to your room, writes down the necessary info from your credit card and passports and hands you your key. When you offer a tip, it is explained that we can leave a sealed envelope at the desk when we leave if we wish.



This is the court yard area preceeding the lobby entrance.



The view from our balcony of the "back" of the hotel where every room has a view of the Taj Mahal.
