LT (Kurla) is near to airports, and near the aeroports there are many hotels.
It's a train station is very easy to use.
We had no problems, it's like any stasion.
Near the station I saw nothing interesting to visit.

Greetings

You can try for Hotels in Chembur as this is the closet place where you can get good hotels.

Let me know if you need any more information.

Thank You.

Kurla station is the best link to connect from the Western line to the Harbour line...

It's obviously chaotic, almost all the time...

Though there are different platforms for the Non-local trains, and it is best to avoid them during the crazy rush hours, the local trains from Kurla are still a decent option to use to get anywhere...

Hope you manage to find your way through the rigmarole that is Aamchi Mumbai...! (Our Mumbai / Bombay)

Cheers...!

donīt worry, us since Kurla to Mangalore, good signage, all easy, I did not see any danger, there is more danger in the stations of Europe ...

Thanks for making my worries less ...

I am worrying so much as I am travelling with the family ..

Any suggestions of a decent but cheap accomodation nearby where I can freshen up and start my journey through the streets of Mumbai for that day before catching the train ???
How about the railway retriring room at LTT Station ?

Should we carry our luggages all through ??? is it safe ?? or there is any locker room type of facility in the LTT Railway Station ??
