Excellent stay at Taj
excellent service comfortable room attentive staff
The staff provided excellent service at the reception and in the restaurant. The room was comfortable, and the food was really good. Staff members had warm, attentive smiles. I especially want to recommend Ms Vandana and Ms Pal.
The shower in the bathroom was a bit dirty at the corners. the breakfast options were quite limited. The bottle on the table was unsealed at my arrival.

The hotel is located outside of the city center. it requires a taxi or car to reach the main attractions, which can take around 20-25 minutes, depending on traffic. The hotel grounds are very well-kept.
