Hotel Review by Sumit

Title – The Shaan of Mumbai Rating – 4 (Very Good) The historical and important architectural structure of Gateway of India is an outstanding example of Scottish architect built to commemorate the visit of King George V to Mumbai in 1911. The Gateway of India is famous tourist spot and Ferry tour to Elephanta caves starts from here. The security and other things managed by local Police. The lighting work done during night hours is also treat for eyes. Huge, Tall and Iconic structure is the Shaan of Mumbai. Jeeyooo… (Visited on 24 th Oct. 2015)

Title – Essel World mein Rahunga Me, Ghar Nahi Jaunga Me… J Rating – 5 (Excellent) Known worldwide as Paradise for Kids, this place without doubt is actually a Paradise but not only for kids but also for teenagers and adults. World class swings, amazing rides and pure ambience with songs playing all around the premises of Essel World makes you feel as if you’re somewhere else and not in this World. The place is away from hustle and bustle of Mumbai and peacefully located on shoreline of the Gorai Beach . To quote an example, when you go from Bangkok City to Coral Island on a ferry ride, the same way, you go from Gorai Beach to Essel World after ferry ride of 15-20 minutes (cost of ferry ride is 50 Rs. per head to be paid at the ticket counter of Essel World). Being there is a lifetime experience and you become a Kid again automatically and run here and there for rides, swings and dance to the tunes of bollywood songs (such is the charisma of the park). I literally en...

Title – N ice, Peaceful and Distinguished Experience Rating – 4 (Very Good) Visiting Mumbai would be incomplete without paying a visit to this historic mosque called Hazi Ali, not only for its religious reasons but also for its appearance in a number of bollywood movies and great architecture, so we decided to have a glimpse of it on 24 th Oct. 2015. On reaching there, we observed lot of waste products, bottles, waste material, polythene bags were lying along the path that was leading to the mosque and we got upset that such a beautiful and important shrine is not maintained at all by its management committee. Smell of non-veg that was being served in the Dhabas near shrine was also upsetting. It’s only after reaching the mosque, we took a sigh of relief as the campus area of shrine is well maintained and the same was clean and pure. The Dargah is very beautifully made and is one of the precious and old monuments of the country. You get peace of mind and can witness Qw...

Title – The hub of Masti, Pao-Bhaji and Golas Rating – 3 (Average) On the evening of 23 rd Oct, 2015, we decided to go to Juhu Beach , Mumbai, our first destination to explore during our Mumbai Tour. Juhu beach is located on the shores of Arabian Sea . One of the most popular tourist attractions and favorite place for shooting of bollywood movies. Juhu beach is one of the most famous beaches of Mumbai from tourism as well as commercial point of view. Lot of people visit there every day. It’s the main tourist point with beach side eatery shops where one can enjoy Pao Bhaji (starting from Rs. 90 per plate), Paani Poori, snacks and Golas (starting from Rs. 40/- per Gola). The beach was over crowded due to some Pooja and immersing of Idols was going on there but that’s also something that we witnessed during our visit and enjoyed watching them performing their rituals and worships. The sad and disheartening part was that the beach is not maintained at all and due to high...

Title – Marvelous, Magnificent, Marriott Rating – 5 (Excellent) During my maiden visit to Mumbai, one of the best memories made were visiting this iconic landmark in Juhu area of Mumbai. Thought we didn’t stay there as we had alternate stay arrangements but we visited this place for dine out and experience the basking glory of this Hotel. This Hotel is perfect paradigm of Luxury and opulence. The palace kind building reminds of the era of Mughals and you feel like King there. The hospitality and service that they showers you with is exemplary. All the facilities and hospitality provided by well mannered and Welcoming staff of Hotel makes you feel and comprehend the actual meaning of care and luxury. The hotel has 5 Restaurants. Lobby is huge and interior decoration is simply mind blowing. Dine out area is in basement and inside the lobby complex. Food was WOW and extra marks for cleanliness and ambience. The service was quick and instant. One of the memorable, lavis...
