The Stars of the Stay
The level of personalized care we received was extraordinary, specifically thanks to three standout individuals:
* Urvija (General Manager): Her leadership shines through every detail of the property. It is rare to see a GM so dedicated to the guest experience, ensuring a seamless and sophisticated stay for everyone.
* Krishnakanta: His professionalism and "guest-first" attitude were remarkable. He anticipated our needs before we even spoke them, embodying the very best of the Taj spirit.
* Anusree, Ankur, Rohit , Chandan, Aziziil, Shipra were all amazing at the restaurant East India Room. Warm, intuitive, and incredibly helpful, Anusree added a personal touch to our visit that made us feel like family rather than just visitors.
Highlights
* The Vibe: A peaceful, colonial-style sanctuary hidden within the city.
* The Food: Exquisite flavors that celebrate local heritage.
* The Service: Authentic "Tajness" delivered with heart and soul.
Verdict: If you are visiting Kolkata, Taj Raajkutir is a must. Huge thanks to Urvija, Krishnakanta, and Anusree for making our stay so spectacular!
