Overall, it stands out as one of the finest Taj properties, delivering an unparalleled blend of comfort, hospitality, and sophistication.

I visited Taj Madikeri with my mother in November for 3 days and we had a lovely time. My mother uses a wheelchair and while that was an issue with accessibility in the design of the resort with no ramps and multiple stairs everywhere, the staff throughout the resort went out of their way to make the stay pleasant and comfortable for my mother with warmth and courtesy and that was very appreciated. The location is fantastic with spectacular views of the rainforest and hiking trails in multiple directions. The rooms were well designed (despite having steps at multiple points) with huge windows looking out to the most beautiful view of the rainforest. I would definitely recommend a visit here to anyone interested in going to Coorg for trekking and hiking.

We have been loyal guests of Taj Madikeri and have always held this property close to our hearts. Our previous stays (count is in double digits) were a beautiful experience,—crafted with care by the then management—when we celebrated my wife’s birthday. The level of attention and warmth we received made it truly special, and that memory made us return again. This time, we decided to celebrate my father’s birthday and travelled as a family of 10. We informed the reservations team well in advance (10 days before), reminded them the day before arrival, again at check-in, and once more on the day of the birthday. Unfortunately, nothing was done. When we followed up, we were told, “We don’t do decorations outside the room,” which felt dismissive, especially when we know it was done before and we’ve been regular guests. It’s disappointing to see how much the service standards have fallen compared to the previous management, who set a very high benchmark. While the property remains stunning and the food is great, the service is nowhere close to a 5-star experience anymore. For a Taj property, expectations are naturally high, and this time it just didn’t feel valued or special. We truly hope Taj Madikeri relooks at their guest experience approach, because the place deserves better management and hospitality to match its beauty.

Nice laid back holiday at this expansive property . We were welcomed with a lovely coorgi coffee with jaggery . And very sweetly were upgraded to the next category room . All the rooms Are huge and almost like standalone cottages . There was so much to do at this huge property that we didn’t need to get out for four days . Lovely 2pools , a spa , gym . Zip lining , wonderful nature trails and many more things Hospitality as usual was top notch . Special mention to sakshm and Nisar at the hive bar and Christopher during breakfast . We had a lovely time .

It was an exciting & memorable stay in our life as we celebrated our 41st Marriage anniversary in Taj, Coorg in the best weather, Room and hospitality extended at a short call by the staff, we are recommending our Friends to join this great experience going forward
