Gateway Chikmagalur

we are both professionals and our work demanded high accuracy. this had taken toll on us and we needed a good break from our routine. so packed our bags and the four of us (2 children with us), headed to chikmagalur. the best place to manage our stay was none other than the professionals at tajness. booked into a cottage for 5 days. its a nice cozy 5 acre property tucked into greenery. the moment we entered the property we were welcomed to being at home. the whole team at taj chikmagalur were "PURE HOSPITALITY". its the first time i had met the GM of a taj property mr saneeej was very nice person. our hostess who welcomed us made sure we got the right room which was large and had 2 queen beds. the team at the restaurant headed by chef Keerthi doled out some real good dishes the daniya murgh and the malnad mutton biryani has to be tried out- mouth watering and to present them were Mr das and Mr sharma. the swimming pool was good and was cleaned twice a day. a temperature controlled pool like your property in coorg would have been a big bonus. the greenery around the property is lush, it had a lotus tank housing some beautiful lavender coloured lotus. the TT table was a major stress buster for us improved on the bygone TT skills too. last but not the least the most resourceful person Mr Manoj Lazarus, an endearing personality, he knows how to cater to the guests of all ages. took my kids to show them the cute ducks and rabbits on the campus which got them very interested. they have many activities like the nature walk etc etc but that was not on our holiday agenda, which was chill chill and chill..... thanks taj chikmagalur for a memorable holiday.and please don't forget to taste their coffee both filter and black. on our way back all four of us were all smiles.

The stay was comfortable, and the food was good. However, the restaurant is understaffed, and there is a long wait for food to be ordered. The restaurant employees are unskilled and have serious communication issues. Being a member, I had booked a member package where there was a 25% discount on F&B and SPA therapies. However, the hotel did not provide the said discount on the SPA / Wellness therapies as promised. To top it up, beverages that were part of the package were also charged separately. Overall, it was not a pleasant experience. The hotel is not value for money and is overpriced for the stay and services being provided.

Very calm and serene. Wonderful experience . Close to nature . Great service by staff Chandrima , Darshan. , Manjula and Raghavendra . We will visit again . Though so close to nature still feels safe and secure . Once again I would like to rate all the staff 10/10
