Location
Taj Bengal is a luxurious oasis located in the heart of Kolkata. Guests rave about its outstanding location in the central Alipore neighborhood, which provides easy access to nearby attractions such as Victoria Memorial and Park Street. However, despite its central location, Taj Bengal is an island of tranquility amidst the hustle and bustle of Kolkata. Guests are impressed by the hotel's lush gardens and greenery, which provide a peaceful retreat away from the noise and traffic of the city. Many also praise the hotel's stunning views of Zoological Gardens and Victoria Memorial. Overall, Taj Bengal's location is a major plus for guests, offering both convenience and relaxation.

Breakfast
When it comes to breakfast, the Taj Bengal is a great choice with a very good breakfast buffet that has plenty of choices. While some guests found the breakfast spot difficult to find or felt there were fewer items to choose from, most guests enjoyed the breakfast, describing it as excellent, fantastic and world-class. The breakfast spread was generally good with great options and fabulous taste. The hotel offers a nice mixture of continental, north and south Indian cuisine which most guests like very much. In the Cat 27 restaurant, guests can enjoy exceptional breakfast and food with a special touch from Chef Ranjan. However, some guests faced difficulty finding a place to sit in the restaurant during peak hours. Overall, breakfast at the Taj Bengal offers superb service and mind-boggling food, making it a standard choice for guests.

Dinner
Taj Bengal offers various dinner options with good restaurants, serving tasty food with a good choice. However, some guests had issues with lack of organization and wait times. The dinner spread's main course items such as Tawa fish, mutton Rigan Josh, chicken curry and chicken stew received high praise from guests. While some guests had negative experiences, overall, dinner at Taj Bengal was considered a fine experience. Some guests recommended adding more fish variety for lunch or dinner, while others felt there was a lack of vegetarian options. Although the spread was fantastic, the quality of food may need improvement as taste left some guests desiring more.

Rooms
Taj Bengal is a wonderful hotel to stay in with excellently designed and well-thought-out rooms. The hotel is a stunning British Collection style design hotel that offers comfortable, clean and spacious rooms. While some rooms may be small, they are still beautifully furnished and well maintained. The hotel also offers refurbished and upgraded rooms, making it a great spot to stay. However, some guests have complained about the aged design of some rooms and the need for more plugpoints. Overall, the interiors and services of the hotel are warm and comforting and the staff provides well-sanitised rooms. The only downside is that some rooms may have a musty smell due to the humidity in the region. Food quality is subpar, so you may want to dine outside the hotel. There are also issues with bathrooms, particularly water accumulation in the bathtub. Despite some of these issues, it is still a good hotel with a convenient location and good rooms.
