This property is a true disgrace to the Taj name. It was filthy. I will not recommend this hotel to anyone! Myself I will never stay there again. And I would be reluctant to stay at another Taj due to this terrible experience. The rooms and bathrooms were dirty. Food was the worst experience! Everything is bad

The property was average. The problem we had was the rooms. Upon check in they gave us a room with no window. The window was there it was blanked out with some film over it. I asked for a room with a window and they gladly moved us but the room was ridiculously small and not the quality we had paid for. I called the front desk again and they moved us for the third time. Finally the room was acceptable but for $800 a night the bed was horrible. My as well slept on cement. If you have any type of back problems I would definitely speak to them about the quality of the bed in advance. No comfort here. Limited sleep due to the comfort and the elevator was not working properly. The door had an issue closing. It would take a bit to get it closed. Only one elevator was available. The staff were very nice. Not worth the money though in my opinion. I would expect exceptional comfort and quality for $800 a night.

This hotel is convenient as its close to my office so I use it when needed. on this occassion I was checked into an upgraded room. When I arrived in the room every door, drawer, window was open or not where it should have been - even the bathroom bin was on one of the tables. I am only ever in the hotel for about 6 hours before I trturn to work, in the morning I discover the shower head was hanging off and the fitting ws so loose that it wouuld not stay in the same place when turned on - not an upgraded room - a room that was known to be substandard and given to someone who was only in the hotel for one night therefore filling the room for the night. I have stayed in enough hotels to recognise the scam - next morning "Im really sorry sir" which does not matter one tiny bit as I have paid and need to go back to the office. Room filled for the one night leaving another room free for a longer term booking. Very poor on this occasion Im sad to say

My sister and I had a wonderful stay at the Taj. The staff was incredibly welcoming, the hotel was impeccably clean, beautifully decorated, and the room was a comfortable size for two people in London. The location was perfect, with an easy walk to main attractions like Buckingham Palace, the London Eye, Big Ben, and Westminster Abbey. Additionally, the nearby tube station made exploring the city incredibly convenient. Highly recommend!
