Hotel Amarpreet

Aurangabad


Dated though spacious rooms with lounges – some with distant mini-Taj views – and all-smiles management make this a solid choice. Polite service, excellent housekeeping and a great selection of food and booze. Located on a busy road, so ask for a room away from the traffic.
