Location -

Hotel Sheela - Agra Location Map View

Hotel Sheela is situated in the so called Taj Trapezium Zone, which is a 100% pollution free area. The Indian Government has prohibited the entry of vehicles in this area to safeguard the beauty of the Taj Mahal. This means you cannot get to Hotel Sheela by car, but there is no need to walk either.

There are two ways to get to our hotel: one is from 'Purani Mandi', which is the southern entrance, and the other from 'Shilpgram', the eastern entrance to the Taj Mahal. At both entrances security personnel will ask your auto rickshaw driver or car to stop. From both check points you can get a cycle rickshaw, a battery operated auto rickshaw or a tanga (horse cart) to go to Hotel Sheela. This will cost around INR 10 as both barriers are just 500 metres from the Taj Mahal and Hotel Sheela.
