The Hotel will reopen its doors at 7:00 pm on December 21, 2008.

On December 21st, the enduring symbol of the indomitable spirit of our city, The Taj Mahal Palace and Tower, will play host to the world again, with the reopening of the rooms in The Taj Mahal Tower.

Acknowledging the massive efforts devoted to the Hotel's swift re-opening, Mr. Raymond Bickson, Managing Director and CEO, The Indian Hotels Company Limited, said, "We dedicate our reopening to the city of Mumbai as affirmation of the values of courage, resilience and dignity."

"To reopen the Taj with such speed but with no loss of attention to details, shows our resolve to commemorate all the innocent and brave people who lost their lives during the terrorist attacks. In their honour, the Taj will shine again in all its brilliance," Mr. Bickson added.

"Everyone who works at the Taj stands in awe of the bravery and sacrifice shown by their colleagues. They have set a standard of selfless service that all of us can only aspire to."
