I stayed at the hotel and found it to have a great location near Sector 17, close to markets and shopping malls. The rooms may need a touch of refurbishing and could have been better prepared for my arrival. The service was courteous and friendly, but the dining experience was below expectations. Overall, a convenient location with room for improvement in service and rooms.

Unfortunately, the dining experience did not meet my expectations. The buffet spread was not up to par, and I found it to be the worst I have had in any of the Taj hotels before.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the rooms felt cozy and spacious, the small window made me a bit claustrophobic. The smiles of the staff seemed artificial, but the service, especially from Kamud & Jaismeen, was exceptional. The location was convenient for accessing popular shopping areas, but the hotel was slow in responding to our needs. The dining experience was perfect, with hygienic standards being a highlight.

My children really enjoyed their stay at the Taj; it was the best part of our holiday. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but a bit outdated and could have been cleaner. The service was nice, especially the assistance from Mr Surendra. The location was excellent with Sector 17 market within walking distance. The dining experience was amazing thanks to Teresa, offering a plethora of delicious options. Overall, a good stay with some room for improvement.

The hotel felt like a bad Holiday Inn with smaller rooms crammed with furniture and a small window that made me borderline claustrophobic. However, the service was so helpful, albeit not very fluent in English. The location is quite good for those interested in shopping and fun places, despite some problems faced due to slow responses. The dining experience was the only highlight, generous and beyond the standard buffet.

The hotel offers comfortable rooms, but lacks the exquisite Taj brand look. The high windows provide a nice touch, but the prices are on the expensive side. The service felt curt and unwelcoming, however, the prime location in Chandigarh is a definite plus.
