No matter how many times you visit the Taj Mahal it evokes powerful emotions. One can not stop marveling at the architecture and its magnificence. Same goes for its namesake hotel brand- The Taj Hotels. Each time one stays at a Taj property, as a guest you cannot stop appreciating the impeccable hospitality and charm of the hotel. So when the (re-branded) Taj Hotel & Convention Centre opened its doors in the city of Taj Mahal- Agra, I had to plan a weekend trip to experience all the Tajness. On a  Sunday I reached the hotel in three hours from Delhi with my toddler in tow. I was bowled over by the welcome not because there was traditional aarti and welcome drink before I was escorted to my suite, but because my son got a grand welcome with hotel staff addressing him by his first name. The joy of checking into a luxury hotel lies in these finer details.
I kept scouting for the elusive network bars on my phone for about five minutes standing outside my tent. I had just checked in at V Resorts Utsav Camp in Sariska and before entering my tent I wanted to see if I could post some stories right away on Instagram. I gave up after 10 minutes and looked up. I was standing amid acres of arid wilderness. There were Arvallis for the view and chirping birds for the company. I knew I won’t indeed be looking for the network anymore.
