Ekante Bliss - IHCL Tirupati Our family had been to Tirumala to have a glimpse of Lord Balaji having our base in Tirupati. After an initial reconnaissance, we zeroed in on Ekante Bliss, a Taj IHCL property, for our stay from 25th-28th October 2024. We did have our early doubts on our shortlist, however, all our doubts were expunged in a quintessential Taj fashion. Right from the smooth check-in (we reached at 11 PM in the night) process on the 25th October 2024 and by the ever-smiling and courteous approach of Uttam, Harita and Lalita during the breakfast on the subsequent day. This continued all through our stay. The housekeeping executives were extremely warm - a special mention to Shivam for excellent support during our stay. Since we had a late breakfast, our lunch also was late. We were in half-mind hoping that something would be available to fill our tummies. Again, Kumar from the restaurant took great care of us and ended up satiating our hearts ***** with our hunger. We were filled with joy by his courtesy as he went an extra mile to ensure we were served with hot, local specialty, South Indian food suiting our palates..!! In addition, Bimal in the restaurant was quick as well as prompt in his service and ensuring we were amply cared. Priyanka and Venu in the front desk were resourceful and helpful in answering all our queries, coordinating our travel needs. Lastly, but most importantly, the helmsman during our trip to Tirumala and back, Tiruchanoor and back, Kalahasti and back and finally drop at the airport was Nagaraj. Charming and a great motorist, we had a great time and felt very safe because of his skilled & super smooth driving. We were left wanting for more and would surely come back the next year, during our yearly visit to Lord Balaji. Our experience in Ekante IHCL is not only a testament but also a testimony to IHCL’s core values - “Creating an environment where people are respected and diversity is celebrated”. Very rightly so. Huge thanks for making our visit and pilgrimage a wonderful experience.
