We stayed for 5 nights and were looked after very well. The staff were always helpful. The property is a bit older than others we have stayed at in India, but it is maintained very well and met our needs. The toiletries provided in the room were especially good. The gardens were beautiful & it was convenient to reach the major tourist sites with a car. I would recommend staying here & would stay again.

The rooms and especially the bathroom needs urgent renovation. The property is not good value for money. Sheets and towels were old and stained. The Chinese restaurant was good and so was the breakfast. The staff were trying really hard, but the property itself is not in good condition.

Enjoyable stay!!!

Our stay was enjoyable. Restaurant staff, particularly Santosh, Shital, Sainath, Dhiraj, Amba and Shyamal, were extremely helpful. They accommodated all our requests (even when it was beyond closing time) and they went out of their way to make sure we got everything we wanted. Extremely satisfied with the service. The premises itself could use some renovation (including elevator) but overall enjoyed our stay.

Taj hospitality is the best!!

After a few hiccups on the first day, our stay was wonderful. The staff was very pleasant. The operations manager Suresh Verma checked on us regularly to make sure everything was alright and provided a free meal to compensate for the first day hiccups. The chef also made some dishes on request as some of us had developed a tummy bug. All in all Taj hospitality is the best!!

Average hotel. Not worth the expense

We booked 3 rooms but only one room had fresh fruits and other two did not. We requested glasses, ice and spoons which took forever. Since we ere only staying at the hotel for a few hours we did not have much time to explore the other services in the hotel. Overall it is not an extraordinary hotel and provides service like any other except that you will be paying premium charges. We hired that cab from hotel and they charged 3 times the normal for pickup, drop and local sightseeing.

Warm hospitality

The Taj group always does a wonderful job but I feel the Vivanta Aurangabad really went above and beyond to make our stay lovely. The staff was so incredibly thoughtful, we got an unbelievable deal on the beautiful room and then the staff just kept doing things to go above and beyond. They set up a wonderful tour of Elora, packed our lunch, upgraded our room, and provided all sorts of small kindness. As improvements, we would love to suggest providing refillable glass bottles of filtered water in the room as a first choice and only bringing plastic bottled water on request as this would be so much more eco friendly. The Tea Room could also make some further effort to be more authentically Chinese. Overall our stay exceeded our expectations. Thank you Vivanta!

Days of the Raj played out.

The overall stay was made by the attentive staff and the real desire to please the guests. The food was good, the chef and staff in the restaurant were dedicated to giving you a good experience. The hotel has dated decor, but everything is fairly well maintained and a bit of croquet game in the grounds and massage on site did cheer me up. The hotel has 3 restaurants and the outdoor one looks great, we didn't try it as it didn't have veg options. The chinese restaurant smelled of too much perfume, leaving us with Lattitude, the main restaurant for each meal for 4 days. It had enough options to keep us satisfied. There is a large swimming pool and a tiny games area, nice to spend time in the hotel - along with a few shopping places within the complex. The reception and travel desk was immencely helpful for taking taxis (really good quality - with working seat belts and Air Conditioning units) We raised issues regarding marking of allergens but this was repeatedly ignored. The staff would bring the chef out each time to discuss needs, which was helpful but disruptive. The culture to say yes and struggling to follow thorugh is an issue in India, not just in this hotel. The hotel packed us a wonderful breakfast on the last day as we had an unsually early train to catch. So overall I recommend staying here.

Wonderful heritage property in Aurangabad, very convenient if you are planning to visit Ellora and/or Ajanta. Beautiful and spacious grounds with heritage decor. The staff is very friendly, professional and helpful. Our airport pick-up arranged through the hotel was very convenient. Dinner and breakfast buffets were excellent with extensive, delicious choices. The dining room is beautiful and there is also outdoor seating in the large courtyard/garden. Unfortunately we didn't have time for the pool. Very serene, beautiful property. Rooms are large and nicely decorated - we even had a swing on our balcony! I wish we had more time to enjoy it!
