The service we received at the TAJ was exemplary. We booked the TAJ based on previous stays at 2 locations in India and are so glad we did. We were immediately greeted on arrival. The staff took charge of our numerous pieces of luggage and our reservation was pulled up while we were offered a special tea and then whisked away to our room. The room was quite large with seating and ample space to open our luggage. The bathroom was modern and huge and gorgeous. Everything worked! We were delighted we book the Executive floor and really enjoyed relaxing during the evening happy hour. The sparkling white wine they served was better than the ones we were served during wine samplings at 3 other locations. The service during the evening was great and helpful with tips for our stay. The breakfast buffet and service were spot on. There were many different types of food so it was easy to find something you wanted. Coffee was great and replenished frequently. After the first day our waitress remembered our preferences. She was a delight and made our stay even better. I would book this hotel again without looking further.
