We could not verify a fully vegan hotel in Agra from current primary sources. These four properties nevertheless provide credible starting points: explicitly confirmed vegan dishes, vegan breakfast listed on Booking.com, or an approachable hotel kitchen with a regional focus.
In India, vegetarian does not automatically mean vegan. When booking, explicitly rule out milk, ghee, butter, yoghurt, cream, paneer, eggs, and honey. If you have allergies, also ask about separate pans, equipment, utensils, and work surfaces.

STAY 01 · Boutique & local
Ekaa Agra
Ekaa is a modern boutique hotel with 13 individually designed rooms in Taj Nagri Phase 2. Its design and guest experiences intentionally reflect Agra, its crafts, and the city’s lesser-known stories.
The in-house kitchen follows a farm-to-table approach and sources fresh ingredients locally. Because the official page also mentions milk, lassi, and buttermilk, agree on a fully vegan breakfast or dinner explicitly and in writing.
- Only 13 individually designed rooms
- Regional ingredients sourced within 50 kilometres
- No single-use plastic, according to the hotel
STAY 02 · Clear vegan choice
The Oberoi Amarvilas, Agra
According to the hotel, The Oberoi Amarvilas is just 600 metres from the Taj Mahal and offers an unobstructed view of the monument from every room and suite. Bellevue serves international and Indian cuisine, while Esphahan specialises in Indian dishes.
For vegan travellers, the hotel provides the strongest direct evidence in this guide: its own FAQ promises an extensive choice of vegan food. The property is still not fully vegan, so notify it of special requirements and allergies in advance.
- Only 600 metres from the Taj Mahal
- Extensive vegan choice officially confirmed
- Taj Mahal views from every room and suite

ITC Mughal, A Luxury Collection Resort & Spa, Agra

ITC’s official Agra page explicitly mentions vegan and allergy-friendly meals. Guests are advised to discuss requirements with the chefs or food-and-beverage team, or contact the hotel before arrival, because choice and preparation can vary between restaurants.
- Vegan meals officially confirmed
- Several restaurants and all-day dining
- LEED Zero Carbon and Zero Water, according to ITC

The low-rise Trident is less than ten minutes from the Taj Mahal, according to the hotel. Its gardens, pool, and kids’ club make it especially appealing to families, while The Restaurant serves Indian, European, Asian, and Italian food.
Booking.com lists vegan breakfast, but the official dining page provides no specific vegan labelling. Confirm in advance which dishes can be prepared without milk, ghee, butter, paneer, eggs, and honey.
- Less than ten minutes from the Taj Mahal
