The Taj Mahal Palace, Mumbai

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. Every day offers a heritage tour, a complimentary yoga session at 8 a.m., and evening events that add a special touch to the stay. From the moment I arrived to the moment I left, everything felt luxurious yet warm and personal. It’s not just a hotel—it’s an experience you’ll remember forever.
