Lovley ambience and great experience at taj Nadesar palace . Anuradha and Mansi told us about the legacy of the palace and its history at the time of check in । The hotel has an great lovley ambience environment which was so heart warming. veena music was played there which is so soothing we also got to buggy riding and saw the hotel garden's. And we also had a great dinning there so for this we would like to thank Mr harsh(restaurant manager) ,Vikas,Subash, Navneet,chef brijesh and chef santosh we would like to thank all them for making us feel homley.
In housekeeping staff Mr Bhagwan singh ji took our extreme care by visiting our room two times a day and giving all us amenities that we required and alok and Ramayan were also every time there for us.
And our Kashi Vishwanath temple visit only possible by the effort of Akhilesh ji security by their efforts we only got to temple. So we would like to thank very much to them and all palace staff for their tremendeous efforts for making our visit a lifetime memorable

A lot to digest? Read an AI-generated summary of recent traveller reviews.
Right from check-in to checkout everything was so perfect that you feel like staying forever. We were so impressed with the exception service from each of the individual that we are already planning our next stay. Mansi, Shubham, Vikas, Vinod, Brijesh, Navneet, Harsh, Naseem ji who showed us the property, each individual from housekeeping and not to forgot the delicious food prepared by the chef. Anything I say for those people will be less than what I experienced. I have already recommended my friends and relatives to experience the top-class standards of Taj Nadesar. Harsh from dining and Vandana from front desk was a delight to talk.

An epitome of luxury paired with the Indian hospitality culture. I would like to mention Ms. Mansi for showing utmost care to my family and specially her involvement with my kids. She kept my kids engaged with so many fun activities at the palace like Fish feeding, royal Horse carriage ride and writing with the Fountain pen at the reception. The work she is doing as a professional is just remarkable. And Mr Shubham "The Ideal Butler", an unforgettable smile and charm he delivers the best class service to the guest. His eye for detailing is something to notice. He can bring smile to anyone's face who's having a real bad day ,Vinod from Housekeeping made sure to keep the rooms crystal clean maintaining the standards as per the young kids. He went out of his way in arranging games for my kids like carrom, Ludo and puzzles which was so exciting for the kids. Chef Brijesh"oh my god", I don't believe the outstanding culinary expertise he has. We have been to soo many Italian and French cuisine restaurants but the Italian food like gnocchi and the spaghetti made by Chef Brijesh were perfectly balanced and were sooo much better than the actual Italian restaurants . Great food.
Overall it was an experience not to forget. The product of the Taj is the experience and it's more worth.

My husband, Ranjan, and I recently had the privilege of staying at the exquisite Taj Nadesar Palace in Varanasi, and it was an experience beyond compare. Our accommodation in the Al Saund Suite was a masterpiece of elegance and tranquility, offering a private sanctuary steeped in luxury and charm.
The suite's private courtyard was an oasis of serenity, featuring four majestic mango trees anchoring each corner, a beautifully crafted Nandi statue at its heart, and delicate flowers floating in an urli that added a fragrant and visual touch of grace. The soft strains of instrumental music played gently in the background, creating a magical ambiance. Each morning, we enjoyed our tea in this tranquil haven, accompanied by the delightful calls of parakeets—an experience that felt like poetry in motion.
The palace’s lush gardens, vibrant rose blooms, and peacocks strutting across the lawns created a setting straight out of a royal fairytale. The serene temple on the grounds provided a moment of spiritual reflection, perfectly complementing the property’s natural beauty.
Dining by the pool, indulging in the palace's culinary delights, and rejuvenating at the Jiva Spa completed an experience that was nothing short of magical. Taj Nadesar Palace is not just a place to stay—it is a journey into the soul of India, a harmony of history, nature, and luxury. A heartfelt thanks to Rupsa, whose meticulous care and gracious demeanor made our stay seamless and unforgettable, and Sharmaji, whose warm hospitality added a personal touch to every interaction. We look forward to returning to this slice of paradise.

We would like to say what a wonderful stay we had in the Taj Nadesa Palace hotel. We would highly recommend this beautiful gem. The staff were amazing and we were so well looked after. Special mention to Rupak at reception, the food was absolutely world class cooked by Rohit and Kk, the service given by Ganesh and Harsh absolutely brilliant and then the services provided by Shashi, Subhash, Vinod and Shubhim were beyond first class. We stayed in the Queen Elizabeth suite and we were treated to an unforgettable experience. This was the best hotel we have ever stayed in and we have travelled all over the world extensively. Many thanks. Hope to visit again !!

Truly historic and amazing hotel and property in Varanasi. We stayed as part of a 16 days India trip and had absolutely first class experience. The Palace has a lot of history, food is excellent and we got a lot of personal service (but I think everybody get that), anything could be accommodate. Anuradha was unforgettable and if she ever moved to a Motel 6 we would go there as she made all the difference for us and we could see that she took pride and joy in making sure our stay was the best it could be.
If we ever go back to Varanasi, and we might, this will be the place for us to stay.
