Amazing place to stay

Amazing hotel, staff were polite and attentive throughout. Room was perfect, breakfast filling and plentiful and spa was exactly what was required. Really appreciated the special efforts to make the stay even better, as was my wife’s 50th and the flowers, birthday card and upgrade were greatly received and enjoyed.

The property itself is beautiful, the rooms vary, some are newly renovated and done well, others are awaiting renovation therefore outdated. The issue I faced was with service, this is a Taj hotel and an Expedia VIP property, the service did not live up to this standard. Twice maintenance came to our room, unannounced, once after 10p and the other at 8a. They didn't call in advance, they simply banged on our door, which while on vacation, isn't great. There was an issue with the sink that they had to fix, why they didn't call in advance or give us a room that didn't have plumbing issues is unexplained. In addition, the room didn't have soap, shower gel or tissues. We called hospitality, who brought all three separately..and the next day after housekeeping, they didn't replace what was used. I spoke with the property manager, who couldn't have been less interested in understanding our frustration, and after having explained our experience, simply said sorry, enjoy your stay. A VERY POOR SERVICE EXPERIENCE...especially for a Taj and even more so for an Expedia VIP property. For the price point and while on vacation, I would recommend reconsidering this property, if you like good service.
