We had been to the Taj before and knew what to expect - a fabulous hotel, wonderful service, centrally located with a marvellous pool - which they try hard to keep peaceful!

* The hotel room temperature was set to 18°C - we immediately set it to 24°C. * The Concierge did not have great offers for a tour to the Elephanta caves. The private boat offer with a speed boat was a bit too expensive. The other option was to have a guide but buy all tickets etc. ourselves. Finally, I booked a tour online from GetYourGuide which worked well. * After we checked in at 12 noon, we were unable to reserve a table for us at the Lebanese as well as the Chinese restaurants - which was somewhat disappointing. * After our dinner, the server forced 4 scoops of ice cream on us even though we said we did not want it.

Breakfast was excellent in terms of the spread. The Indian filter coffee was underwhelming. The high tea in the afternoon was very good - however, the Sea lounge and in particular our table area was very cold due to being right below the A/c vents. Since we were celebrating my birthday, the staff gave us a surprise with a cake (because we had two rooms, they gave us 2 cakes which was a bit too much). The cake was delicious. Dinner at the Shamiana Restaurant was good (some dishes very good, others okay). The staff were very polite and helpful - so high marks for service.

The club lounge was limited in its offering for afternoon tea and cocktails. Other hotels I have stayed at have more variety and make a greater effort. The ambience in the lounge was dark and closed. Other club lounges at various hotels do more to brightern up the look and feel and have great views.

The general ambience was great, staff were always helpful and the pool was very good. Breakfast was amazing.

Unfortunately, we slept next to a supply room and a fan kept us awake half the night.

The ambience is a dream. The staff is very friendly. Our every wish was fulfilled. Unfortunately we were only allowed to stay one night because we were on an Ultimate World cruise. We would have liked to have stayed longer.

An evening casual bar with gentle music like in the lobby would have been great eg. Similar to poolside but in the lobby or air conditioned area.

I believe there's room for enhancement, particularly regarding the televisions provided in the rooms. Given the prevalence of Smart TVs in the market for quite some time, guests often find themselves more accustomed to this technology compared to traditional cable television. Smart TVs offer guests a wider range of options in terms of what they want to view.

Staying at the Luxury Grande Room City View at Taj Mahal Palace Mumbai was an unforgettable experience that exceeded all expectations. From the moment I stepped into the grand lobby, I was enveloped in the timeless charm and elegance that the Taj Mahal Palace is renowned for. The room itself was a sanctuary of luxury and comfort. The spacious layout, adorned with plush furnishings and tasteful decor, provided the perfect blend of opulence and homely warmth. The city view from the room was simply breathtaking, offering a mesmerizing panorama of Mumbai's vibrant skyline, especially enchanting during the sunset and evening hours when the city lights come alive. The attention to detail was impeccable, with every aspect of the room meticulously curated to ensure a truly indulgent stay. From the luxurious linens to the state-of-the-art amenities, every comfort was thoughtfully provided for, allowing me to relax and unwind in absolute luxury. The service at Taj Mahal Palace was exemplary, characterized by warmth, professionalism, and genuine hospitality. Whether it was the friendly greeting at check-in, the prompt assistance from the concierge, or the impeccable room service, every interaction was marked by a genuine desire to ensure my stay was nothing short of perfect. The hotel's dining options were equally impressive, with a tantalizing array of culinary delights to choose from. From sumptuous Indian delicacies to international fare crafted with finesse, each meal was a gastronomic delight that left me craving for more. Beyond the confines of my luxurious abode, the Taj Mahal Palace also offered a plethora of amenities and experiences to enrich my stay. Whether it was a rejuvenating spa treatment, a refreshing dip in the pool, or a leisurely stroll through the hotel's beautifully landscaped gardens, there was no shortage of ways to unwind and indulge in luxury.

Beautiful hotel, not old yet steeped in history, it was a pleasure to get to know it and my thanks to the wonderful staff. Food and drinks were excellent also. Well located also, with shopping nearby and transport options all conveniently nearby.

Restaurant service needs to be 5 star.

This was my forth visit to the hotel but this was good but also maybe the worst out of the 4, breakfast was not the best on this occasion and was unable to get booking in Golden Dragon. I think maybe the management need to keep more of an eye on things and become complacent about there high standards they should be always achieving because you are a high end hotel and that's what the guest pays for.

We were served food which would come with Chutney no chutney was served, the Lassi was so salty I took one sip and did not touch it again. The cost of breakfast is £24 and the choice was very limited.

We had dinner at the Sea Lounge, all I can say the food was so poor that the manager waived the bill and also we had plans to eat at another restaurant within Taj following evening having experienced the Sea Lounge we promptly cancelled the reservation and instead went to another restaurant outside the Hotel. The breakfast was equally poor. The hotel is excellent but the food was very poor.

The bath tub posed the danger of slipping since there are steps going up and down it plus a big step to get into it. There was no usable counter space for toiletries. Towels felt old and felt damp.

Bed not as comfortable as some, but huge!

Beautiful art deco hotel. Fantastic view of the Gateway of India. Iconic bar 1933 with great music. Poolside bar with live singers, who were so good. Evening meal in Souk restaurant was great. Breakfast was amazing. Service throughout the hotel is second to none.
