The Taj Mahal Tower, Mumbai

The Taj Mahal Tower, Mumbai Overview

First Impressions

Walking into The Taj Mahal Tower, Mumbai feels like stepping into a piece of history — but the good kind, where everything’s been lovingly maintained and updated. This five-star property sits right at Apollo Bunder in Mumbai, and honestly, the location alone is worth the splurge. You’re literally facing the Gateway of India, which means you’ll have one of the most iconic views in the city right from your window.

The Location Magic

I mean, couples absolutely love this spot — they’ve rated the location 9.6 out of 10, and I totally get why. You can walk to the Gateway of India in about thirty seconds, catch a ferry to Elephanta Caves without any hassle, and the whole Colaba area is right at your doorstep. The thing is, you’re in the heart of everything but somehow the hotel manages to feel like a peaceful retreat from Mumbai’s beautiful chaos.

The Room Experience

The room I stayed in was genuinely impressive — and apparently I’m not alone because guests consistently rave about how comfortable the beds are here. You know what really struck me? The attention to detail in the furnishings and the way they’ve balanced traditional Indian elements with modern luxury. The marble bathrooms are spacious (a real luxury in Mumbai), and the air conditioning actually works properly, which honestly isn’t something you should take for granted in this city.

Dining and Amenities

The breakfast spread is pretty spectacular — they do this mix of Asian, American, and buffet options that somehow works perfectly. The restaurant spaces are elegant without being stuffy, and the service feels genuinely warm rather than just professionally polite. What really surprised me was the free parking — in this part of Mumbai, that’s actually a huge deal and saves you quite a bit of money and stress.

Why Guests Love It

There’s something about this place that keeps people coming back — they actually have more repeat guests than most other properties in the area. I think it’s because The Taj Mahal Tower strikes this perfect balance between luxury and authenticity. You’re getting world-class service and amenities, but you’re also staying somewhere that feels genuinely connected to Mumbai’s character and history. Plus, with a 9.1 rating overall, it’s clear that most people leave feeling like they got exactly what they hoped for from a luxury Mumbai experience.
