Reviews - Angela L. Solo Traveler Canada,
February 24, 2013. A fantastic property with impeccable service. A great way to end my vacation in India. Everything from reception, to the business centre, to the concierge, to the travel desk, the room, the view overlooking the Gateway of India was great. I am so glad I chose to stay here. I wish I could have stayed longer. Dining at Souk was great - food and staff were awesome.
Tourist attractions - Haji Ali Dargah
The Haji Ali Dargah was constructed in 1431 in memory of a wealthy Muslim merchant, Sayyed Peer Haji Ali Shah Bukhari, who gave up all his worldly possessions before making a pilgrimage to Mecca. Hailing from Bukhara, in the ancient Persian Empire (present day Uzbekistan), Bukhari travelled around the world in the early to mid 15th century, and then settled in Mumbai.This Cylindrical shaped building has planetarium, art gallery, restaurant, library, cultural center and 14-gallery exhibit called Discovery of India. There are antique exhibits like a railway engine, tramcar, supersonic airplane and steam lorry.
Mani Bhavan
Mani Bhavan was the building where Mahatma Gandhi stayed during his frequent visits to Bombay. It is a charming, three-story Gujarati house, painted brown and yellow, now turned into a museum. The museum has a reference library of over 2000 books, a photo collection of Gandhi’s life and many well-preserved memorabilia including the famous spinning wheel (charkha).

The Food of India
A definitive guide to the vast array of Indian food found in
this exotic country. Where dishes vary not only from region to region but
suburb to suburb, the range and scope of local specialities is endless: Moghul
kormas, Assam teas and Delhi sweets being just a few. The research team behind
this book travelled the length and breadth of India, talking to chefs, tasting
the dishes and visiting local food producers, giving the reader an honest,
insider view of the country's culinary delights and history. The photographs
of Jason Lowe capture all the vibrancy and colour associated with the East,
reflected in the colourful dishes whose recipes accompany them. Special
open-out photographic sections illustrate the diversity of Indian herbs and
spices, sweets and teas making the book extra special with their freshness and
attractiveness. A must for any lover of India or Indian food.
The Taj Mahal Palace
Stylish and successful, with a smattering of historic relics,
Mumbai fits the profile of an ideal travel
destination. Add beaches, a raucous nightlife and a long
succession of Bollywood films, and it's easy to see why the
world can't stop talking about India's budding starlet. Life
on these seven islands wasn't always so sweet (even today a
large percentage of residents struggle to make ends meet), but
opportunities in Mumbai are limitless for India's wealthy and
well-connected, with ample facilities to suit any appetite.
The best tourist sites are in South Mumbai, accompanied by a range of
Mumbai hotels and restaurants. The old colonial district has a wealth of Victorian architecture, highlighted by the Gateway of India, a massive arch fronting the Arabian Sea. When it comes to historic sites, Colaba is the best place to start, but there is also plenty to see along Marine Drive and near Chowpatty Beach.
