Taj Hotel

Obviously a very elite hotel with staff falling all over you but some other guests and visitors a little less friendly I got in trouble with a FaceTime visit that came in on my cell phone from my daughter back in Canada a chance to see my first grandchild for the first time But someone complained I guess I was too happy in the formal setting Also got in trouble for asking for ice at the bar for handling a knee injury while walking London all day They had given me a small bag of ice with no problems before so other than that a first class place in a first class city

Not enough British power outlets to go round we had several chargers working for our cell phone two Garmin watches and our laptop Two chargers were under the suitcase bench and could only be accessed by lying down on the floor Hot water ran through towel racks in the bathroom and it was adding heat to the entire suite despite air conditioning Only window that opened was in the bathroom and out to the courtyard and so getting air moving was limited too settings on the thermostat A very old hotel but on the whole it was simply a treat to be staying there

Location

Price Had to ask for a reduction as one of rooms given was not what had paid for Hotel agreed

The staff were great

Rooms a little bit dated

Location and quite area

The best way to describe the Hotel is like a man with a black tie with dirty underwear The place smells of curry all the time bathroom far too small Concierge very BAD manners

Breakfast was superb finished at 11am on weekdays and 11 30 on weekends Room service excellent Quality of the food excellent Location was superb

My first night I was put in an unsatisfactory room on the sixth floor but this was sorted out by a Ms Soares and compensation was given

The staff was very helpful and friendly The location of the hotel was amazing Perfect for tourists All of the main attractions were within walking distance

The only issue I had was the shower It flooded the bathroom but that was my only issue and I would definitely stay again

The location Several tourist attractions are a walk distance and the nearest underground station is only 400 meters from the hotel It is a very classic hotel Excellent in terms of staff facilities comfort and cleanness

Although the breakfast is excellent it is quite expensive 20 pounds

Home away from home

Impression of the hotel and the room were very nice Welcoming reception and entrance hall

The view Our room 213 looked out to the front and there was just a building site opposite

Staff very helpful and courteous ideal location

waiting line for breakfast was sometimes too long
