A Backgrounder

taj hotelsTaj Hotels Resorts and Palaces is today recognised as one of Asia’s largest and finest group of hotels. Incorporated by the founder of the Tata Group, Mr. Jamsetji Nusserwanji Tata, the company opened its first hotel, The Taj Mahal Palace Hotel, Mumbai in 1903. The Taj, a symbol of Indian hospitality, completed its centenary year in 2003. A part of the Tata Group, India’s premier business house, Taj Hotels Resorts and Palaces comprises 60 hotels in 42 locations across India with an additional 18 international hotels in the Maldives, Mauritius, Malaysia, Australia, UK, USA, Bhutan, Sri Lanka, Africa and the Middle East.

Spanning the length and breadth of the country, gracing important industrial towns and cities, beautiful beaches, hill stations, historical and pilgrim centres and wildlife destinations, each Taj hotel offers the pinnacle of luxury and service: vantage locations, the apogee of Indian hospitality, modern amenities and business facilities.

Taj Hotels Resorts and Palaces is committed to replicate its domestic success onto international shores with plans to build an international network of luxury hotels, which will provide an exemplary product-service combination and in the process create a global brand. The current international portfolio includes luxury resorts in the Indian Ocean, business and resort destinations in the Middle East and Africa, serviced apartments in the UK, the first hotel in Australia and two a top-end luxury hotels in the US.

Throughout the Company’s expansion, its mandate has been twofold: to infuse a sense of Indian heritage and culture within each diverse property, while also anticipating the needs and desires of the sophisticated traveller. Over the years, the Taj has won international acclaim for its quality hotels and its excellence in business facilities, services, cuisine and interiors.

A trendsetter in Food & Beverage, the Taj was the first to introduce Sichuan, Thai, Italian, Mexican and Californian cuisine into the country, and back in 1972, it was the first to open a 24-hour coffee shop in India at The Taj Mahal Palace & Tower, Mumbai. Today, each restaurant is reflective of that tradition, setting benchmarks for an outstanding culinary experience.

Taj Hotels Resorts and Palaces is grouped into Luxury, Leisure and Business to provide consistency across the different hotels in the same brand and standardize products and services.
