The Oberoi Mumbai

About The Oberoi Mumbai

One of the world's leading hotels, The Oberoi is modern, luxurious & perfectly minimalist.

When a hotel’s reputation precedes it (and contains such utterings as “best hotel in the world”), you know it’s going to be good – and year after year, The Oberoi Mumbai continues to live up to its name. Located on the southern tip of Mumbai, at the end of one of the city’s most exclusive streets, Marine Drive, the hotel is an Art Deco extravaganza from the outside, and a lesson in contemporary glamour on the inside. With a focus on light, height and space, every area, from the lobby to the outdoor pool terrace, is a calm, soothing respite from hot and heady Mumbai. Add a smattering of world-class restaurants, a deliciously-indulgent spa and some of the best views in the city, and you’ve got yourself an intoxicating retreat that's perfect for a city break.

Property details

The property

Unlike many of Mumbai’s most glamourous hotels, the Oberoi is not about old-school opulence. The lobby is sleek, chic and very contemporary - water features and specially-commissioned artworks are fun and enticing, as is the pillar-box red grand piano! Restaurant-wise, expect Michelin-starred chefs and a selection of cuisine from Japan to India to Italy, as well two bars (a champagne bar and the velvet-adorned Eau, perfect for a pre-dinner something), a bakery and a deli. The spa is as fabulous as you would expect, and there’s also a fitness room and in-hotel shopping centre.

The rooms

As you may have guessed from the exterior, the Oberoi is not small and there are 287 rooms in total, all with floor-to-ceiling bay windows. Choose forward-facing for endless views of the Arabian Sea, or city-facing for the glittering lights of Nariman Point. Inside, you’ll find heavy oak furniture atop polished floors, colourful paintings, and plenty of heavy drapes to frame the views. The ensuite bathrooms are smooth and shiny and all have freestanding baths, showers and TVs. The different levels of suites are progressively larger, right up to the Presidential number, and most occupy the corner spots of the building, offering 270-degree views of the sea and the city.

Activities

The hotel will gladly organise tours, or a driver and a car to take you around the city sights. Walking tours are a great way to get under the skin of Mumbai and the Heritage Walk stops by most of the highlights - the university, Victoria Terminus and the High Court to name a few - and the Spice Trail is a favourite for foodies. If art is your thing, head to the Khala Ghoda, a stretch of the city’s most beautiful galleries and museums, and if you’re in the mood for some shopping, all you need to do is step outside the front door…

Why we love it

It might be beautiful, but the hotel’s reputation really comes from the exquisite service and attention to detail. So just relax and enjoy…

Insiders Tip

Carve out some time to spend by the pool. With sea views, a cascading waterfall, palm trees and a cocktail menu as long as your arm, you’d be forgiven for thinking you were on a beach break.

Something to think about

In many ways, the hotel is geared towards business travel so expect plenty of meetings in the lobby and a fair few business-types clacking away on laptops.
