A commanding presence on Taj Road since 1961, Hotel Clarks Shiraz holds the distinction of being Agra's first five-star hotel — a fact that gives any event hosted here an immediate layer of heritage credibility that newer properties in the city simply cannot replicate. Clarks Shiraz is managed under the Clarks Hotels group and occupies a privileged position directly opposite the Taj Mahal's eastern gate, making it the only five-star event facility in the city where guests step outside and face one of the world's most iconic landmarks. That geographical and historical advantage frames every occasion held within its walls.
The property's primary event infrastructure centres on the Mughal Hall, a column-free banquet space that accommodates up to 300 guests in a floating or cocktail configuration and scales down to theatre-style and classroom layouts for corporate formats. The pre-function foyer connects directly to the hall, ensuring smooth guest arrival flow and a dedicated registration area for MICE programmes. The expansive lawns — among the most photographed outdoor event spaces in Agra — offer an open-air extension for cocktail receptions and post-conference networking, with the Taj Mahal's marble silhouette visible across the skyline as a natural backdrop.
Clarks Shiraz hosts two primary event categories with meaningfully different service models. For weddings, the hotel provides in-house catering with multi-cuisine menus spanning North Indian, Mughlai, and continental options, alongside dedicated banquet managers who coordinate across décor, timing, and F&B across multi-day ceremonies. For corporate MICE bookings, the hall supports AV infrastructure, projection screens, and high-speed Wi-Fi — with the hotel's experienced events team managing technical requirements end to end. Planners should note that the outdoor lawn is weather-dependent and may require a contingency plan during Agra's monsoon months between July and September, a logistical nuance worth factoring into any summer booking timeline.
Hotel Clarks Shiraz offers 237 rooms and suites, giving event organisers a strong accommodation block for outstation delegates — a practical advantage that standalone banquet halls in Agra cannot match. The property sits on Taj Road, approximately 1.5 kilometres from Agra Cantonment Railway Station and around 13 kilometres from Agra's Kheria Airport, making it accessible for delegates arriving by both rail and air. On-site facilities include multiple dining outlets — among them the rooftop restaurant Jhankar, which delivers direct views of the Taj Mahal — a swimming pool, spa, and concierge services that extend naturally into pre- and post-event hospitality programming.
Spalba's listing for Clarks Shiraz carries verified capacity data, event-space details, and direct enquiry tools that allow planners to submit an RFP or check date availability without an intermediary call. For corporate teams evaluating Agra as a conference or offsite destination, or for families planning a wedding where heritage atmosphere and accommodation convenience matter equally, this property offers a combination of verified credentials and logistical depth that merits a serious walkthrough before shortlisting is finalised.
