The hallmark of a Taj hotel is service and we are not disappointed when we venture in to the signature bar, Fort St. George. Local celebrities here have a particular penchant for this stylish space that is cited among The Whisky Bars of the World
Gold Hotel. We nibble on canapés and sip on bohemian side car martinis, and sample a refreshing mocktail of flower extracts topped with oxygen enriched water. The bar is stocked with the choicest liquor – single malts, armagnacs, cognacs, and Cuban
cigars. When it comes to dining we have diverse and equally alluring options to choose from: Southern Spice which offers a complete southern experience, replete with food, music and dance; Prego, the trendy Italian restaurant and Anise, named
after the local favourite star-anise.
The newly refurbished Golden Dragon takes us right into a romantic vision of China, with Sichuan cuisine, mood lighting and furniture that emphasise the Orient.
We are captivated by the tea bar where we sample 15 varieties of single estate Chinese tea. A 24-hour Fitness Centre with steam and sauna, neighbouring tennis courts and golf courses invite us to work out the knots in our system.
Taj Coromandel’s location in the commercial district of Nungambakkam, just 15 km from the airport, renders it ideal for conferences and celebrations. With 12000 sq ft spread across eight conference facilities, the hotel provides spaces for every occasion, from intimate gatherings of 20 people and product launches for an audience of 1000.
