TAJ-RESTORATION 2

The 35-member IHCL team has followed restoration work of
hotels like Peninsula in Hong Kong, Oriental in Bangkok,
Raffles in Singapore and George V in Paris as a benchmark.

Before the month ends, The Taj will reopen three of its
world-renowned restaurants with new design elements and new
menus.
"Golden Dragon, serving authentic Sichuan cuisine, Wasabi
by Morimoto with its delectable Japanese cuisine and Harbor
Bar, Mumbai's first licensed bar will open its doors for
guests toward the end of the month," the hotel said in a
statement.
The 565-room Taj Palace will reopen the rooms, the
ballroom and all Grand Suites in a phased manner by the first
half of 2010.
"Guests can request for rooms on the second, third and
fourth floor of the hotel by mid-January 2010. The ballroom
will be unveiled to guests by mid-March next year and the
transformed and themed Grand Suites by the end of April 2010,"
the statement said.
Jamshetji Nusserwanji Tata had built the hotel, which
boasts of contemporary Indian influences, brick-by-brick with
its beautiful vaulted alabaster ceilings, onyx columns,
graceful archways, hand-woven silk carpets, crystal
chandeliers, a magnificent art collection, an eclectic
collection of furniture and a dramatic cantilever stairway.
