james

well depending on your budget you can try
in the city
Taj
Oberoi
Hilton
Gordon House
Intercontinental
Taj President
Marine Plaza

Airport & Suburbs
JW Mariott
Hyatt
Hyatt Regency
Intercontinental the Grand
Le Meridien
ITC Grand Maratha

The hotels should be between $175-$350 a night. Availability is tight so book asap.

I've only stayed in the J W Marriott at Juhu Beach ...... but it was absolutely divine if you want a 'touch of luxury'

Fabulous bathrooms - large, deep comfortable beds, stunnings views, great food ( orchids scattered over the immaculate white linen on the Room Service trays and trolleys, that kind of thing). There's a good pool outside, huge flaring lanterns at night in the garden ....... and the sun going down over the Arabian Sea. What more could a girl ask for ???????

Hi aussie bear,

The Intercontinental on Marine Drive has a rooftop swimming pool and bar/lounge area with a fantastic view over the "Queens Necklace", i.e. Marine Drive.

Rooms come with 42" plasma TV's and a nice little audio system that you can listen to while soaking in the bathtub. Plus the location is very convenient for all areas in southern Bombay.

Very highly recommended.

But of course if you want something really special go for the Taj. I think at least one Indiamike member has actually spent a night there and written up a report for the Hotels-section.
