Taj Bengal Kolkata

Taj Bengal is a distinguished and well-loved 5-star hotel from the Taj Hotels group, located in the Alipore neighborhood of south-central Kolkata — the city’s most prestigious, tree-lined, and historically aristocratic residential area — offering comprehensive luxury hotel amenities combined with outstanding Kolkata cultural access and a calm, tree-shaded setting that contrasts pleasantly with the city’s characteristic intensity. The hotel offers 229 rooms and suites including family suite configurations and connecting rooms, all with free high-speed Wi-Fi, premium Taj bedding, flat-screen TVs, butler service for upper categories, and elegantly appointed private bathrooms. A swimming pool, a comprehensive spa, multiple dining venues including the Sonargaon Bengali restaurant — one of Kolkata’s definitive Bengali fine dining experiences serving authentic mustard fish, shorshe ilish, kosha mangsho, and mishti doi — and a 24-hour butler service complete the exceptional amenities. The Kolkata Zoological Gardens — one of India’s oldest and most comprehensive zoos with royal Bengal tigers, Indian one-horned rhinoceros, and Asiatic lions — is adjacent to the hotel and enormously popular with families. Victoria Memorial is a fifteen-minute walk. The Kalighat Kali Temple is twenty minutes by taxi. Park Street, the Indian Museum, and the Maidan are thirty minutes. Taj Bengal is consistently praised for its Sonargaon Bengali restaurant and peaceful Alipore setting.
