Some rooms undergoing renovations without closing the section is inconvenient. The rooms there offered for stay are not great.
We had a great stay at the Gateway hotel, beautiful gardens and very welcoming staff. Food was outstanding, the Ajanta and Ellora caves a must see and this hotel is a great base.
The rooms and especially the bathroom needs urgent renovation. The property is not good value for money. Sheets and towels were old and stained. The Chinese restaurant was good and so was the breakfast. The staff were trying really hard, but the property itself is not in good condition.
The overall stay was made by the attentive staff and the real desire to please the guests. The food was good, the chef and staff in the restaurant were dedicated to giving you a good experience. The hotel has dated decor, but everything is fairly well maintained and a bit of croquet game in the grounds and massage on site did cheer me up. The hotel has 3 restaurants and the outdoor one looks great, we didn't try it as it didn't have veg options. The chinese restaurant smelled of too much perfume, leaving us with Lattitude, the main restaurant for each meal for 4 days. It had enough options to keep us satisfied. There is a large swimming pool and a tiny games area, nice to spend time in the hotel - along with a few shopping places within the complex. The reception and travel desk was immencely helpful for taking taxis (really good quality - with working seat belts and Air Conditioning units)
We raised issues regarding marking of allergens but this was repeatedly ignored. The staff would bring the chef out each time to discuss needs, which was helpful but disruptive. The culture to say yes and struggling to follow thorugh is an issue in India, not just in this hotel.
The hotel packed us a wonderful breakfast on the last day as we had an unsually early train to catch. So overall I recommend staying here.
Wonderful heritage property in Aurangabad, very convenient if you are planning to visit Ellora and/or Ajanta. Beautiful and spacious grounds with heritage decor. The staff is very friendly, professional and helpful. Our airport pick-up arranged through the hotel was very convenient. Dinner and breakfast buffets were excellent with extensive, delicious choices. The dining room is beautiful and there is also outdoor seating in the large courtyard/garden. Unfortunately we didn't have time for the pool. Very serene, beautiful property. Rooms are large and nicely decorated - we even had a swing on our balcony! I wish we had more time to enjoy it!
Excellent stay at Taj Vivanta Aurangabad. Couldn't be happier for choosing this facility.
The room was very comfortable, very clean. Service was top notch and the staff was super helpful.
Highly recommend to anyone planning to visit this area.
Will stay again if visiting this area.
Excellent staff services - starting from front office greetings to dining. Mr. Rajnish and Ms. Vaishnavi did wonderful jobs for our entire stay.

The hotel is a little worn at the edges but it makes up for it by the warmth and courteousness of the staff. They are all lovely and made the stay immensely enjoyable.
This is an outstanding hotel. From my arrival until my departure, they treated me with kindness and dignity. I couldn’t imagine a better place to stay in Aurangabad.
