My sister and I were fortunate to stay 7 nights at the Taj with my elderly mum. The hotel is very clean and with good service. There were a couple of issues with ramps but they were sorted out by the reception manager Prateek Barthwal. We mainly ate at the buffet restaurant and initially the Indian food was spicy. Chef Anoop arranged special food for my mum and sister. We all had massages at the Spa and mum went back for second massage with Pii. Stella was always friendly and competent in the reception. I would definitely book a Ayurvedic massage as soon as you arrive. We used the club lounge and I would like to mention Navin, Diksha, Asif, Bijaya, and manager Basksrfor great service. We also ate at Rai’s and the food was plentiful but could be more flavoursome. Service by Abi was great and she was attentive. We had the taster menu at Varq which was very good and generous portion. Overall a relaxing trip at the Taj. It was our first trip away with mum since dad passed and it was just what she needed. Thanks for everyone bringing very kind while we pushed mum around in the wheelchair. From the bar staff, restaurant staff, the ladies in the tea/coffee are and cleaners etc. Read less

Omg, this has got to be one of the nicest, friendliest and most amazing hotels we have ever stayed in. From the second we pulled up in the taxi until the moment we left the staff couldn’t do enough for us. The room and club lounge was absolutely beautiful, the food (breakfast & dinner) was out of this world and the chefs were happy to come and talk to you and also couldn’t do enough for you. We tried the spa (AED 1200 / £250) for 2 1/2 hours, you definitely get what you pay for, it was fantastic and 💯 relaxing, well worth it (thank you to Stella and Grace). We got to know a lot of the staff by first names, they were all amazing and so accommodating, A very big thank you to everyone for making this the best stay we have ever had, we will definitely be back 😊😊 Read less
