    This is a very overpriced hotel for what you get. Some of the staff (front desk) we rude and unfriendly. We had three issues with our room that were fixed promptly. The air conditioning stopped working, the phone did not work, and the bathroom door handle came off. The bar and restaurant had obscenely high prices for what you get. This hotel is for folks who don’t mind wasting money for what you get. I would never stay at another Taj hotel. Just not worth the price.

    Breakfast was great, staff were friendly, but room service took over 45 minutes to deliver just plates and forks — at which point we had just gone to the bar to get it ourselves. Bathroom had a small leak, leaving a puddle in the morning. Lots of charme and great staff — but we were disappointed as we had higher expectations. Comping just $30-40 for minor incidentals on a $3000 bill felt rude rather than a nice gesture to make up for inconveniences. At that point, don’t comp at all.

    Amazing!!!!!

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Hotel was beautiful, and very old school. Location was great. Beds and staff excellent. No hotel bar we could access that didn't have a strict dress code. Coming from a concert we were not dressed up at all and were denied access.

    Great staff!!

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    One of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed at. We only stayed one night ight and wished we could have stayed longer if our plans had allowed us to. We will be back!

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Clean room and staff was very nice

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Nice old world hotel. Our suite was comfortable and quiet which was welcomed in a very central location Some updates here and there needed. They tried to charge us ($50/night) for our son’s bed despite booking confirming his stay was included. Double tipping at breakfast so even if you have “free breakfast or breakfast included” you will be charged extra. It felt like any opportunity to charge us was taken.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Historically elegant! But food was ridiculously expensive. $120 for 2 people to eat breakfast, a small 2 egg breakfast with literally 1 slice of bacon

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Classic old world kept clean and fresh with impeccable service. Not stuffy….but men cannot wear shorts/athletic apparel to breakfast, if that sort of thing turns you off, I’d say this isn’t for you.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Way over priced Mini bar was WAY over priced

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Had breakfast on site at the restaurant. Ordered the ham and cheese omelette which had very little ham and I could not find evidence of any cheese in the omelette. Service was good, but the food was marginal at best and outrageously priced. It would not choose to eat there again.
