Taj Gateway
Hi,
Has anyone had any experience staying at the Taj Gateway Hotel on Gateway Road? It doesn't seem to be a 5 star hotel but it is central to lots of shopping and restaurants. I am staying at the Windsor Sheraton right now, and although it is very very nice, it is also very isolated. Does anyone have suggestions on 5-star hotels that are centrally located? Thanks! |
Which city? Bombay/mumbai?

The Taj Gateway in Bangalore is on Residency Road. I have never stayed there, so I have no insight on what that particular hotel is like.
What I can say is that every Taj hotel I've stayed at -- including ones like the Ambassador in DEL that is now the Taj Ambassador -- has had good service and decent rooms competitive with the rest of the majors. What may be missing in some of these other Taj hotels is the grander facilities, but they are still basically as good as anything else in town. |
All Taj properties are nice to excellent. Just beware of the properties they have just aquired as it takes some time before they get to the Taj standard. I remember getting a dirt cheap room at the Taj in Mangalore and ended up in a big room in one of the 'not yet renovated' floors. The guy who led me to the room had a large can of room freshner to get rid of stink of pesticides before he let me into the room. ;)

They've gone on an acquisition spree like few others. Oberoi may have considered doing the same, but I think family constraints may have played a role there.

I have some pretty good experiences at Oberoi properties, but I had an attack of bed bugs, literaly, in the mumbai oberoi in fall of 01, and about a half dozen people I know who were in the hotel in the same period seemed to have the same problem. |
Ive stayed at the Taj Gateway. Its a good place. Would recommend.

If you are talking about the Taj Gateway on Residency Road, its a good place. Its been a Taj property for many years now (at least 10-12 years).
