"New Delhi's Taj Mahal Hotel is a local landmark, a top-class international luxury hotel, located in Lutyens' Delhi, the historic city center that is home to India's senior government officials as well as a number of millionaires and CEOs. The architecture in this district is historical and unique, and the meticulous landscaping means the city center enjoys temperatures several degrees cooler than the surrounding sprawl." - Tablet Hotels
We had a truly memorable stay at the Taj Mahal, New Delhi. Everything about our experience was exceptional — from the beautifully appointed rooms and delicious food to the relaxing pool and outstanding service. We celebrated our daughter’s 10th birthday during our stay, and the staff went above and beyond to make it incredibly special and unforgettable. We couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful experience and can’t recommend this hotel highly enough!

The Taj Mahal Delhi is a beautiful hotel with splendid decor and an old school ambience. However, some of the underlying cost cutting is noticeable. The breakfast buffet for example is anything but - with a handful of items such as bread and rudimentary cereal laid out but anything substantial needs to be ordered and it arrives in due time in small portions. It's awkward to know how many times can one order in the circumstances.Another example occured when I changed some currency at the hotel. I expected the rate to be bad and it was, but this was not an issue. I am happy to pay for luxury and convenience. However, what irked me slightly was when the staff explained that there was no change so she couldn't give me 60 INR. It's a very small amount but I felt it was a liberty - imagine offering currency exchange at an exorbitant rate but you don't have currency. Other than that we had a good stay. The pool was stunning as was my beautiful club suite. It was a very generous size and beautifully designed with views over the pool and Delhi beyond - a real oasis in noisy and bustling Delhi. The club lounge is ok but not really worth paying for - the timings for high tea etc are so inconvenient that you won't be able to use them.Overall, this was still a good stay and probably the best hotel for the price in this part of town.

Taj Mahal is absolutely breathtaking — a true symbol of love and architectural brilliance. Visiting early in the morning helps avoid heavy traffic, which can be significant near Agra city. The site is well-maintained, and nearby hotels have decent room availability if booked in advance. Entry is smooth, and it is open from sunrise to sunset (6:00 AM – 6:30 PM) daily except Fridays. A must-visit landmark with stunning views, especially during sunrise and sunset! 🌅✨

Perfection to the core extent. This hotel was an epitome of perfectionism where every single thing seemed so elegantly placed and polished. ||Enjoyed the cake mixing ceremony too.
