Fathom Favorites : Mumbai Hotels

1. Sofitel Mumbai BKC

Great for business travelers, the hotel is located in Mumbai's financial district. Contemporary French style, with the interior designed by Isabelle Miaja, there is a restraint to the design that makes this hotel a welcome break from the over-the-top opulence in other Mumbai hotels.

2. The Oberoi

One of the top hotels in town, where both international and Bollywood stars flock to. The butler service is impeccable, and together with the clean-cut interior design creates an oasis from the chaos right outside.

3. Vivanta by Taj - President

A sub-brand of the Taj flagship line, but offering the classic Taj service and comforts. An upgrade to an executive room or suite promises better views and much better service. Drop in on the bar by the pool, Wink.

4. The Leela Mumbai

Located by Mumbai's International airport, The Leela is a convenient choice for business travelers with the full package from bars to the 24-hour gym to a spa that is expected of any top-rate business hotel. The club rooms and suites are worth the upgrade.

5. Trident, Nariman Point

Like her sister hotel, The Oberoi, Trident's service standard keeps the guests coming back. Centrally located in South Mumbai at the start of the Marine Drive promenade, see the skyline transform at night and understand how the promenade got the nickname 'Queen's Necklace'.

6. The Taj Mahal Palace and Tower

It's easy to mistake the hotel as another tourist landmark with its Florentine exterior and location by the Gateway of India. Get a colonial-style room in the Heritage Wing that dates back to 1903, though they also have contemporary rooms in the slightly newer Tower Wing.

7. Taj Lands End

The younger sibling to the Taj Palace in downtown Mumbai, Taj Land's End has all the standard Taj offerings and style. But also hilltop sea views, and far away enough from central Mumbai to feel like an escape.

8. Orchid

Right by the Santacruz domestic airport, Asia's first certified eco-friendly five-star hotel makes for a convenient location with luxurious offerings.

9. Four Seasons

Set in the up-and-coming Worli neighborhood, the service is great, and so are the views from their rooftop lounge, Aer, at level 34.

10. Grand Hyatt

Contemporary Indian art and sculptures are featured throughout the hotel's 547 rooms, spa, and restaurants. The Szechuan fare at China House and the martini bar are worth checking out.
