Frommer's Recommended

The facade of this nine-story budget hotel harks back to the 1930s and suggests a faded grandeur that is sadly not realized in most of the rooms. Because the range of accommodations varies a lot here, you should specifically request a centrally air-conditioned deluxe room that has been refurbished. Also insist that it's one of the eighth-floor units blessed with a view (distant as it is) of the Taj Mahal Hotel.

Note: Guest rooms at the Godwin's sister establishment, the Garden Hotel (tel. 022/2284-1476; gardenhotel@mail.com), immediately next door, are slightly cheaper but are cluttered and a bit grubby.
