Easily the best

Easily one of the best hotels I have ever had the pleasure to stay at. Impeccable service and standards. We stayed at three hotels in Kolkata for our trip and this was the clear winner for us. The staff were very helpful and courteous and made us feel very welcome. Everyone from the concierge, house keeping, fnb services and the Taj club were so welcoming and accommodating. A shout out to Bimal, Kishan, Rajesh and the team we met in the Taj Club for their impeccable hospitality. There was a particular lady from the Taj Club that really stood out from the rest but unfortunately we didn't get her name. Defintiely would stay here again!

We have stayed for almost a week before taking a short break and planning to return for another week. The hospitality is what sets Taj Bengal apart from the rest of the innumerable 5 star hotels. Everyone is eager to please, immensely respectful and welcoming. The concierge Mr. Sanjib Ghosh has done the impossible of even getting me a premium ticket for an international India – England T20, cricket match against all odds. The night manager Mr. Tanmoy was able to extend my stay for 2 additional nights (in a full hotel!), the sous chef Kavita was attentive to everyone and the morning buffet breakfast was so enjoyable. The main restaurant Sonargaon is par excellence in ambience, decor and food, albeit a bit expensive. This is truly one of the best Bengali restaurant I have ever been to. We didn’t use the gym or the spa. But again, what sets the Taj apart is the hospitality which money cannot buy in America.

Taj failing to keep their promise

The hotel looks rundown and old. The bathroom looks like a dorm room stall while people are busy in the front desk. They’re unable to execute their task properly in this trip. I have stayed at Goa, Kolkata and kuseong, each one of the top experiences was not what I expected rooms with dirty towels beds that had plywood stuck in them Car Service that was ordered, but no one showed up and never picked up the phone scheduling Car Service Sf that go away took several calls throughout the day booking online on the taj.com. Site is a disaster. I can keep going on and on in the last two years of state of many Taj and it seems like that with the influx of Indian tourism. The Taj hotels cannot keep up with their standards. I stayed at the over in Bombay and I noticed that their customer service was much better than the Taj

The service is absolutely exceptional. Every member of the staff has a pleasant smile and a heartfelt “Namaste” no matter whether you are in the dining areas, hallways or poolside. True Taj hospitality! They go out of their way to take care of every need the guests may have. I stayed for four nights during the busy time of Christmas, yet they gracefully made me feel the center of their attention!

It is an excellent colonial style property, beautiful Taj ambiance, well maintained lawns, great dining options and exceptional service from ALL staff. Arijeet at Junction x, Rajesh in housekeeping, and Anirban at Cal 27 consistently went over and beyond. The hotel carpet and certain other furnishings need urgent remodeling, but there was nothing else that I can fault.
