One night in Kolkata before our flight home and wanted to treat ourselves. Fantastic service, all staff very helpful and accommodating, nothing way too much. Pool was quiet and relaxed and a well equipped gym. Breakfast was amazing! Lots of choice with local favourites and our waiter Aditya was amazing ...

Taj Bengal
Housekeeping needs to step up. Hypoallergic bedding should be available for a five star. No hairs on the bathroom floor. I understand it’s an old building but the room smelled like mildew.
