Accommodation

The recently refurbished corridors and rooms still stand testimony to a century old heritage, with original artwork and period furniture infusing them with an old world charm, while still having all the state of the art amenities required in today’s world. Taj Club rooms are situated on the top floors and offer access to the exclusive Taj Club lounge with all its added benefits. The suites here are legendary; each combines contemporary and classic styles, with richly hued interiors evoking the grandeur of a bygone age. Executive Suites are contemporary living spaces, which include bedroom and living room; Luxury Suites are delightfully themed and have the added benefit of a dining room with guests also having access to the Taj Club. Grand Luxury Suites have all of the amenities of the others but are even more luxurious and have stunning views of the Arabian Sea and Gateway of India. Even more luxurious are the two Signature Suites, the richly furnished and opulent Rajput Suite in all its Rajasthani splendour, or the Ravi Shankar Suite named after the celebrated sitar maestro. The epitome of luxury has to be the Presidential or Tata Suite, comprised of 15 graciously appointed rooms elegantly furnished with hand woven silks, furniture clad in silver, white marble floors and patterned hand knotted carpets. This is a taste of royal living; a luxury and extravagance once the sole preserve of kings.
