Staying at The Taj Mahal Palace was one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life. The hotel is steeped in history, with art pieces adorning every floor—like walking through a living museum. The decor is breathtaking: marble floors, elegant floral arrangements, and timeless design elements throughout. The staff went above and beyond—friendly, attentive, and always ready to help.
