Taj Santacruz Mumbai

A Maserati showroom in the lobby sets the tone for this 279-room business hotel wedged handily between Mumbai's two airports. Art Deco stonework gives way inside to chandeliers, mirror-polished surfaces, and staff who materialize exactly when needed. Rooms run amber and goldenrod with mother-of-pearl finishes, and the restaurant anchors itself beneath a six-story color-changing atrium mural. The Taj Santacruz is selected in the Michelin Guide.
