“Top of the Top”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 February 2012

In 40 years of traveling around the world , I thought I had already seen the best...but no, it's here it is in Bangalore, which is a nice town but has less reasons that many other cities to have and maintain such a jewel. The room,THE park, the gardens , the terraces, the bungalows the Taj Club, the food (Indian at Masala Klub), the service, everything was perfect. And efficiency was not enough for the staff...they added a natural kindness which we enjoyed especially at the Taj Club with the outstanding young head butler Satish Pawar and later at the restaurant with the talented and friendly chef Shubham Dhar. The international class with the Indian smile! Unfortunately far from Paris! J.O

“A hotel with it's own eden”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 February 2012

Picture the traffic in Bengaluru and the loong business trip meetings, then picture yourself relaxing in the comfort of your room with a fantastic garden to relax and unwind.

Taj West End is not a high rise hotel, cluster of 2-storey buildings are tucked in gardens and pathways. Having a ground floor room was terrific! I was able to enjoy reading the newspaper in the relaxing morning.

The room are adequate, Though I was not able to see an elephant in my trip to India, the staff created a white elephant from towels.

The staff are awesome and the restaurants are great!

Room Tip: Ground floor garden is great... have your own mini garden and some privacy!

person found this review helpful

We stayed at Taj Christmas of 2011
The hotel grounds were very beautiful , the rooms need a little a bit of updating, the gym and half the spa was under construction,
Over all the location was great and the service was good.

“Very Nice Hotel and Property”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 January 2012

The Taj West End is a garden of serenity in city of Bangalore. The property is spacious so be prepared to walk to your room which in my case was situated in a 2 story section where my room was on the first level. I had a private landing complete with chairs and water feature. The room was nice but the ceilings were a bit low for my taste, while my companions had vaulted ceilings. The selection of restaurants and bars was nice but you need to understand that they are spread around the property a bit so look beyond the reception area. Lush foilage surrounds you a you walk the grounds to your room. The service was good but not what I would call exceptional. I arranged for a car to pick me up the next morning only to find that it hadn't been arranged at all. The problem was quickly solved. Overall a very nice hotel and I would definately stay again the next time I travel to Bangalore.

Room Tip: have a non-a/c car drive you around to see and experience the lesser known parts of Bangalore. Tand...
