Basic and convenient location

No frills waterfront location close to Taj Palace. Make sure you don't get conned by the Optometrist they have waiting in reception - we had come down to meet our local guide and thought was him only to be told by our actual guide that Hotel Staff would not let them wait in reception for us - bizarre but we had a great day tour.

Great location but noisy

Hotel was undergoing renovation of the elevator while we were there in January and they worked and were noisy late into the night with no acknowledgement or apology from the management. The staff were very expectant of tips and would hang around uncomfortably waiting for a tip. Had not experienced that anywhere else in India. Other than this feed back, the hotel location is good and good base to explore old Mumbai.

Great location - less than great experience.

The reception staff need service training. Pretty rude about passport / identification procedures and would have lost my FRRO document had I not insist in finding it upon leaving. Room was pretty threadbare with marginal levels of cleanliness. Not again and would definitely not recommend.

Great service

The hotel is not in the greatest condition but the location is fantastic. A 2 minute walk to Raj Palace and Gateway of India. Beds were very comfortable, wifi was fantastic, breakfast was good and the staff were just incredible. I was a female travelling alone and they guided me so well, organising cars to take me around, wait for me to finish and take me to my next location for a very cheap price, when I wanted to convert cash, they called around to many places in order to find me the best rate. I can not thank the staff enough for the great service they provided.

Ingen riktig sömn, bara vila :(

Vi var tre personer i rummet, en vuxen och tvĂ„ 15-Ă„ringar. Jag, vuxen, som fick sova pĂ„ soffan ville ha tvĂ„ lakan dĂ„ den uppfattades som SÅ smutsig, dock helt ok i komforten. SĂ€ngarna ok. Flitarna var sĂ„ motbjudande att man knappt ville ta i dem, kĂ€ndes smutsiga och orena. Gav obehagskĂ€nslor. Ingen av oss Ă€r speciellt krĂ€sen men de gick över mĂ„ttet med hĂ€stlĂ€ngder. Det var obehagligt att dörren till hotellkorridoren var lĂ€ttöppnad och verkade lĂ€ttforcerad. AC-n lĂ€t som en helfabrik och jag trodde att jag skulle fĂ„ en stöt av den vid kontakt för av och pĂ„ sĂ€ttning. Det kĂ€ndes otryggt och svĂ„rt att sova i denna otillitliga miljö dock hĂ€nde inget. Hotellet kĂ€ndes nedgĂ„nget och slitet, för mig/oss som skandinaviska turister. Personalen gullig och hjĂ€lpsam, bra i kontakten. LĂ€get var bra, fint och lugnt, vilket kan vara en stor tillgĂ„ng i Bombay.

Average Hotel but great location

This hotel is good enough but the location is very good. It is right on the water within a few minute walk of the Gateway to India. The staff was helpful. Be prepared to pay for Internet that expires after you log in one time so use it up at one time. Staff was very helpful, got me a driver for my 2 days in Mumbai.

Tim

Liked: Cleanliness

Good location in quite a peaceful part of Colaba.

Small problem with the booking, as the paperwork said the room (for just one person) would have either two single beds or a double bed, but as far as the hotel is concerned it costs extra for one person to occupy such a room, so I stayed with the allocated room, which was airy enough. Otherwise, everything was OK and it was quiet enough to sleep well at night. The staff were friendly. It's a shame they don't make more of their waterfront location, making somewhere to sit and take in the view. The taxi drivers outside will overcharge you, even using a meter, if you don't know the rates, so ask in the hotel roughly what you should pay.

Forget it! Much better choices around...

We had chosen this hotel for its situation... We had booked another hotel not so far for the two nights before... But we wanted to keep expenses down a little bit... Bad move! Bad rooms, really incredibly bad beds, bad reception, noisy guests in the corridors yelling half night long, musty, old,and really, really, to avoid... Pay just a little more, do a little research on internet, and go not very far, to a much better place...

dishonest hotel description?

The management should be honest and say that they charge for wire-less (overcharged actually: about 2 dollars per hour) rather than that "complimentary wireless Internet access is available in public areas." The only good thing about the hotel is the location. Otherwise, what they offer and the quality of the service do not justify the price.
