It is a nice property. Stayed there for a night with property. Mynt is an all day diner restaurant and had a good spread of Indian cuisine. Rooms were spacious. Service was quick. Front office folks Sathya, Deepika, Eknath were professional and very quick in attending to guests.

Hotel's Favourite
Stayed at the Vivanta Mangalore on Old Port Road with family for 2 nights for the 1st May long weekend. What stood out was the exceptional hospitality by the staff starting from the bell boy, the valet, the front desk executives, the staff at the restaurant and bar. And too when the hotel was completely full due to a long weekend. They all went out of their way to make sure we had an extremely pleasant stay, helped us with all our questions and requests instantly, guided us to visit the best places in Mangalore. All in all it was the familiar Taj hospitality in full display. Its a 4 star business hotel, newly renovated. The rooms were big, fully staked with all amenities, room service and house keeping are prompt and professional. The breakfast spread is decent including options from the live counter and includes a full Indian and continental spread to choose from. The hotel even has a small but cosy bar and a swimming pool which helps one get refreshed in the sultry Mangalore weather. The hotel is a quiet locality with the old Mangalore port not very far from here. Overall it was a wonderful experience at the Vivanta Mangalore and loved Mangalore as a whole. Would definitely love to go back and stay again here.

We stayed at this hotel for 8 days and experienced a pleasant hotel life. The room is clean and comfortable. The staff members are friendly, helpful and respond quickly. We enjoyed a local South Indian breakfast of hot crispy dosa and Mangalore buns with South Indian coffee by the beautiful swimming pool. Sometimes we had lunch and dinner at the hotel restaurant or room service. All the dishes were excellent, especially Pecking Duck at "Memories of China", Thai green chicken curry and Mangalorean prawn curry at "Mynt"

Staff courtesy, good and facilities are the most memorable ones . There is never a 'no' and that makes the stay most comfortable. Hygiene and hospitality is something to be always appreciated. Breakfast spread is something which you cannot get at any other property in Mangalore. Every department needs a mention of excellence.. overall , it will be Vivanta Mangalore next time too

Very friendly place All the staff are extra helpful. They have added a Chinese Restaurant at their facility. The food is exceptionally good and we've been enjoying Chinese food for over 40 years. Probably the best Chinese in Mangalore. Nupur who works the breakfast shift is a great evening waitress too. The Manager Arul is very helpful and takes good care of you. Gateway Taj is the place to stay in Manhalore.

My wife and I stayed for a day at Taj Mangalore. We had a corner room on the 5th floor with spectacular views of the river from the two windows. We had dinner at the Chinese restaurant a the food quality was very good - very balanced flavours. The service by the restaurant personnel was also very good. All in all a wonderful stay and I would heartily recommend this hotel to those looking for a pleasant time in Mangalore.

Comfortable accommodations, welcoming front desk team, delicious room service options, affordable rates. Internet connectivity is inconsistent and could benefit from improvement. I was able to walk to the UB mall easily. We enjoyed our stay.
