"I love staying at the Taj, it feels like home but the standard rooms have become old and have a smell to them, they need to be renovated as the Club Room rooms are fantastic as is the service at the hotel and the food in the restaurants and at breakfast."
"The location sounds promising on paper. Beach is a one minute walk, which is nice. But the beach itself is in pretty rough shape with a lot of waste around it, so that walk doesn’t quite deliver what you’d hope for.
All rooms have only a partial view with no direct sea-facing option, which wasn’t what we expected. Worth knowing before you book if the view matters to you.
Food was decent and the kitchen does its job. The chai though average at best, and for a coastal property that’s a small but telling miss.
What saved this from being a lower rating was one front desk employee called Tabish, who genuinely tried to help us get a better room. That kind of effort stands out and I want to call it out because it was real.
Overall it’s a middling stay.
Not bad enough to regret but not good enough to return."
"Staff was extraordinarily friendly and helpful in terms of arranging a tour and recommending shopping locations as well as arranging airport transfers. Our room was quiet, clean and we enjoyed watching the black kites flying around outside our window."
