Taj The Trees, Mumbai
$150-250/ nacht
Boek dit als You want a serene, eco-luxury escape in Mumbai's suburbs that feels like a mangrove forest retreat rather than a city hotel.
Waarom mensen ervan houden
- Stunning floor-to-ceiling views of the Vikhroli mangroves
- The 46-meter infinity pool that feels like it floats in the forest
- Industrial-chic design that pays homage to the site's Godrej factory legacy
Snel Overzicht: A gorgeous sanctuary that's perfect for business in Powai or a staycation, but a traffic-filled nightmare if you're trying to sightsee in South Mumbai.
Beoordeeld door @gladysoutandabout: I couldn't believe how quiet it was here. The mangrove views from my bed were insane for Mumbai. My kids lived in the pool, and the buffet spread was endless. It’s the perfect spot if you need a break from the city chaos without actually leaving town.

- You have business in Vikhroli, Powai, or BKC
- You appreciate modern, industrial-chic architecture over traditional luxury
