The Taj Mahal Palace & Tower, Mumbai Reviews

Amazing hotel, restaurants, and a piece of history not to be missed. Immerse yourself in luxury and get pampered by a world class 5 star service.

Visiting the Taj is like going down memory lane. One can discuss the history of the entire century, and how Taj shaped the south Mumbai status.

Always grand, always serene, always vibrant, it is a great pleasure to celebrate goodness at the Taj.

Ultimate view ! We enjoyed alot after that we went for cave view and boat trip

My wife and I had the most memorable experience during our stay at this iconic hotel recently. It's sheer luxury, courteous and friendly staff and fabulous food made us feel like VIPs.

Awesome palace one should visit once in his life span

An iconic landmark in Mumbai.. The sea is calm..A magical view of gateway of India can be witnessed..

Amazing place... International feeling with Indian Tadka

It is excellent. Beautiful architecturr. Amazing senary. Very good hospitality. I think this is the best in INDIA.

Absolutely breath taking. Beautiful interiors. Very friendly and welcoming staff. Need to be there atleast once in ur lifetime.

One of the most memorable experiences I have had during these testing times. Thank you Taj, IHCL for giving us a beautiful experience. It's so well maintained with sanitizing in the smallest of the things you can't even imagine of. Safety in place with staff courteous and polite. Thank you again!

One of the Oldest Luxury Hotel in Mumbai. Must visit place for all.

Superb hotel, great hospitality, but rooms are not as modern as other new hotels. But still their hospitality is so good... this is the best hotel in Mumbai...

Around 10k for a night..decent service..multiple restaurants and gourmet shop Vivanta.. The name says it all!!

Very amazing place, and we arrived we were rain. I like rain :) that's way there were less poeple than usual ;)

Best Coffe In The Best Starbucks Under The Best Hotel in The best City

The tea experience is fabulous. Get a seat next to the windows,and watch the waves crash into the shore as you enjoy the pleasures of the good life with a cup of Darjeeling tea.

We had a few hours to kill so we popped into the Taj Shamiana for a coffee and stayed for lunch. The food didn't disappoint and, needless to say, the setting left nothing to be desired. I look forward to visiting their other restaurant concepts.

******* hotel
The Gateway of India is an arch monument built during the 20th century in Mumbai, India. The monument was erected to commemorate the landing of King George V and Queen Mary at Apollo Bunder on their visit to India in 1911
When it opened in 1903, the hotel was the first in India to have: electricity, American fans, German elevators, Turkish baths and English butlers. Later it also had the city s first licensed bar, India s first all-day restaurant, and the India s first discotheque

It is a very beautiful hotel here s staffs very politely behaved

The ultimate luxury hotel in Mumbai. Must visit once for the ambience, hospitality and location.

Very big hotel. Nice hospitality. All food dishes are authentic Indian.

Amazing hotel steeped in history. first class service. Food wasn't spectacular but ambience and service make up for it

Art gallery is quite good.
Historical stuff might be fascinating to some.

One of the best hotel of India
Great ambience of the hotel
One of the known place of Mumbai
Little bit costly

one of the most expensive hotel in mumbai. it has witnessed many things even terrorist attacks but yet it stands there with the same dignity and pride.

The Taj Mahal Palace Hotel, is a heritage, five-star, luxury hotel built in the Saracenic Revival style in the Colaba region of Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, situated next to the Gateway of India. Historically it was known as the "Taj Mahal Hotel" or simply "the Taj". The hotel is considered one of the finest hotels in the East since the time of the British Raj.

It was one of the main sites targeted in the 2008 Mumbai attacks.

Part of the Taj Hotels Resorts and Palaces, this hotel with its 560 rooms and 44 suites is considered the flagship property of the group; it employs some 1,600 staff. The hotel is made up of two different buildings: the Taj Mahal Palace and the Tower, which are historically and architecturally distinct from each other (the Taj Mahal Palace was built at the start of the twentieth century; the Tower was opened in 1973). The hotel has a long and distinguished history, having received many notable guests, from presidents to captains of industry and stars of show business. Ratanbai Petit, the second wife of the founder of Pakistan, Muhammad Ali Jinnah, lived in the hotel during her last days in 1929; her mother, Sylla Tata, had born into the Tata family, builders and owners of the hotel. During World War I, the hotel was converted into a military hospital with 600 beds. The hotel is notorious as the most visible target of the 2008 Mumbai attacks.

In 2017, the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel acquired an image trademark,[8] the first building in the country to secure intellectual-property-right protection for its architectural design.

The original building of the hotel was commissioned by Tata. Its doors opened to guests on 16 December 1903.

It is widely believed that Jamsetji Tata decided to build the hotel after he was refused entry to one of the city's grand hotels of the time, Watson's Hotel, as it was restricted to "whites only". However, this story has been challenged by many commentators who suggest that Tata was most unlikely to have been concerned with 'revenge' against his British adversaries. Instead, the Taj was built at the urging of editor of The Times of India who felt a hotel "worthy of Bombay" was needed and as a "gift to the city he loved" by Tata.

It's the dream place where everyone wants to visit after coming to Mumbai ! ... Architecture is awesome ... service is also best ! ....love this place .

Such a beautiful hotel. Obviously good ambience. Best in the Mumbai and India. Good gesture from staff. Many restaurants for food like Souk Labanese, Chinese, Masala Craft for Indian dishes, Shamina for anytime food, and other 4 more restaurants inside it.
Please go there and find out more.
I can't write everything here.
And I am sure that you will love it.

The place is like a heaven.
The place is usually crowded with many people visiting there for the view of the taj mahal and the gateway of india.
The feeling on visiting there for the new visitors who come there is very amazing.
The taj mahal palace is a 5-star luxury hotel . The service over there in the hotel is good. Delicious food and nice hospitality. With a view of sea the hotel is worth to visit.

Turkish National day,was conducted,with meticulous planning,and hosted by the new Consul

Iconic hotel of not only Mumbai but india. It is more of tourist destination for many people. Would love to stay there one day and experience the famous taj.

The staff is a little snooty but otherwise, it's true to heritage and absolutely stunning.

Amazing suite. We lived there for 2 weeks and the experience was amazing. Loved the suite.

I visited Shamiana Restaurant in the Taj for dinner and felt the place is really upbeat. Took a corner table and enjoyed my romantic dinner with some fine Italian food. Nachos and Pasta made my evening.

The most iconic hotel in Mumbai, luxury at its best. Quality in everything, food, staff, interiors, service, location, views of the highest standards.

I have visited the hotel only from outside and it was good

The reception was warming. The service was prompt and the staff well behaved and very helpful. The place has earned its name. It's beautiful. Would love to visit again.

I have been to this palace many times before, but this time around the entire staff specially the manger Rachit was quite rude and no where showed the value of Taj Hotel. The entire experience of visiting the shamina was pathetic.

If you tell them about the quality of food they start asking so many questions and even throwing the blame on the customer.

Unforgettable

One of the most beautiful hotels I've ever stayed in, with impeccable service, customer focused service and beautiful architecture and decor. This was a very special 1,5 days stay for my mum's birthday and we were treated with a free upgrade to Club rooms, her bedrooms was full of treats to celebrate her anniversary and we felt very well looked after. The pool was fantastic, they would even offer you mist and towels for a bit of a refresh. Absolutely wonderful views and the whole setting is just out of this world. We stayed in the main building and would certainly not be open to stay at the adjacent Tower. Well done Taj. Keep it, as is, forever.

Its one of the best and historical premium hotel in india..

Lunch at the Sea Lounge was a phenomenal experience...worth every penny paid. The staff is a class apart and the food as well. One can enjoy a panoramic view of the Gateway of India and the Arabian Sea

It is the oldest 5 Star Hotel in India and a Symbol of Courage, Hospatility, Heritage & Inspiration of all the other Five-star Hotels in india. .

Heritage hotel. Taj group of hotels.ultimate in service & luxury

Place need no explanation. View from its top floor restaurant is awesome .

I would have loved to give it more stars but alas we only have 5. This is one property you would want to stay at, atleast once in your life time. The historic structure gives you the British era Royalty feel and the staff goes out the way to make you feel like Royalty. TAJNESS, the philosophy of Taj, is on full display here. Overlooking the Gateway of India, this property and the Taj hospitality, make it an amazing place to spend quality time with your family.

I am talking about my experience outside the hotel. It is a crowded place with the Gate way of India nearby. Apart from the architectural marvel of the hotel building and the Gateway nothing much to do.

Awesome place as everyone knows. It's a Taj. Costly obviously but worth it

In one word. ICONIC. Historic and imposing. It's a class apart. The Taj Mahal ;Hotel in Mumbai has been the the torch bearer of all that is classy and has set extremely high nternational standards. Unmatched food, ambience and service. It's not a hotel..It's an experience!

Omg! What can I say.. Its so awesome place o be and to visit. With family visiting, staying and spending some quality time is worth. All services are excellent. I wish I could afford more stays or get more chance to visit and explore more sections and services sometimes if possible or if I get some offer or promo in future I would like to make small video on it and put in my YouTube channel for sure. Very nice place, excellent superb courteous services.

It was my first visit to any luxury hotel. The hotel lived up to the hype surrounding it. Everything was a little bit too costly!

Taj hotel is best hotel in india
And fomus for.
My faibret hotel.

I like this taj hotel

Kk karsh

Expensive, but excellent service.
Love the different restaurants therein.

Must experience the Taj Service

It's a great place , closer to the sea and amazing food. The services are good as well

One of the best hotels to stay for the service they provide all staff are excellent

Experience true grandeur at The Taj Mahal Palace, the iconic sea-facing landmark in Colaba, South Mumbai.This flagship Taj hotel offers you splendid views of the Arabian Sea and Gateway of India, alongside refined century-old hospitality.

Very Nice, Royal and over other word in its appreciation. One of the pride of India.

The Taj Mahal Palace. Cosseting guests in old-fashioned grandeur, Mumbai's most iconic hotel is much loved by its well-heeled and glossy locals. Generations have celebrated life's milestones here, making this more than just the city's best luxury hotel, but part of its beating heart. From the welcome to departure the service and hospitality from all staff sets this hotel apart. Worth every penny. Choose a sea view room to marvel at the boats and Gateway of India. The complimentary heritage tour discussing the history of the hotel is highly recommended. A truly wonderful stay...

Wonderful place. Very good staff and excellent food

Too good room&room service was excellent, interior was marvellous,food quality was excellent,in short stay in TAJ was great.

Onw of the best hotel in Mumbai. Here each and every facility is provided to its guests .... only that's why tourists love it all.

The place was really good! So good, nothing else can be said about it!

The best hotel in Mumbai and it is exactly opposite to the gateway of India. Staff is very cooperative and very much helpful. Would suggest everyone to at least stay there for one night, and you'll know why it is called as "Taj Mahal Palace". Awesome place.. Cheers.!!

It is located on the bank of Arabian sea .You will feel the sea breeze ..it's just amazing place

Ambience and decor indulges your senses, however the food quality and standard of service is a matter of debate and luck.

Nice interiors and infrastructure. Good for stay and very tight security

The staff is really helpful and the people who handle catering Dil kush kar diya , really Tata Ka staff has good decency

Too over crowded. The hotel management should make changes to crowd management
