Our Picks
6 hotels · Updated February 2026
Nariman Point
Positioned on Marine Drive with a private beach and panoramic views across the Arabian Sea, The Oberoi is a monument to restrained Indian luxury — interiors by designer Adam Tihany, service that anticipates every need, and a rooftop pool that delivers one of Asia's most cinematic sunsets. The Oberoi Spa's Ayurvedic therapies are among the finest in the country.
Lower Parel
ITC Grand Central occupies a converted heritage building in Lower Parel with a warm, tobacco-toned aesthetic that nods to the mill district's industrial past. The hotel's sustainability credentials are exceptional — ITC properties are among the greenest in the world — and the signature Dum Pukht restaurant, with its Nawabi slow-cooked dishes, is reason enough to book a table even if you're not a guest.
Perched above the Bandra-Worli Sea Link with sweeping harbour views, the Four Seasons is Mumbai's most architecturally dramatic luxury address. Floor-to-ceiling windows, a 34th-floor rooftop bar frequented by Bollywood's elite, and a spa inspired by ancient Indian wellness traditions make it a supremely compelling choice for those who want modern Mumbai at its most glamorous.
Colaba
India's most celebrated hotel stands at the tip of the Colaba peninsula like a crown jewel, its Florentine-Moorish dome reflected in the harbour waters beside the Gateway of India. For 120 years the Palace wing's sea-facing suites have hosted heads of state and maharajas — the butlers are legendary, the view incomparable, and the sense of occupying the very heartbeat of the city is unlike any other hotel experience in the subcontinent.
Colaba
Tucked behind a heritage building facade on Arthur Bunder Road, Abode Bombay is Mumbai's finest boutique hotel — 21 individually designed rooms that celebrate old Bombay with hand-printed fabrics, local artwork, and furniture salvaged from the city's colonial past. The rooftop terrace, breakfast, and genuinely warm personal service make it the city's most characterful small hotel.
Bandra
Commanding the dramatic headland above the Arabian Sea in Bandra, Taj Lands End pairs Bollywood glamour with understated luxury — the sea-facing rooms look out over the Bandra-Worli Sea Link, and the hotel's Mezzo Bar is one of Mumbai's great sunset drinking perches. It is the natural choice for travellers who want the Taj standard with a more contemporary, western-suburbs sensibility.
