This is the place to stay if you are looking for a great location, easy access to local historical sites, kind and professional service on every level, a generous breakfast, and a comfortable bed. We stayed for six nights at the Diplomat and will definitely return. Highly recommended.

Excellent staff and good room and bathroom. Breakfast pretty god and very good value all round. Several bars and restaurants in the locality. Fairly easy walk to the sights. A metro station about 15 minutes walk. Worth trying as it's modern and pretty unused. The only problem was a lot of noise from a bar directly below our room that went on until 1.30!!

Truly one of the worst hotels i have stayed at. Right above a night club that was pumping music until 2am every night. The elevator was broken and the breakfast was awful. Booked a double bed on this platform got a single bed.

Staff a little reserved/officious at times. A situation over hotel rules was handled without tact and made me consider moving. Breakfast basic. My room was skipped for cleaning one day. Wifi did not work until the second day and no obvious effort made to fix this when it broke or inform guests when it was back. No apology offered. Door and generalnstaff very helpful. Some.street noise and loud music from neighbouring bar, but I felt this was reasonable/unavoidable for a downtown location.

Not the best hotel, but i believe there are better parts of the hotel. Unfortunately we ended up in the "less good" part of the hotel. The room was cleaned, but not clean. The bed was "family sized" and not well made. The sheet kept sliding and unfortunately we got to see the mattress. It was not for the faint of heart. The breakfast was not bad, but I was happy we were only staying for one night. There is a nice deli next to the hotel, for lunch. And if you want to pay for it, there is actually a Starbucks across the street.

南ムンバイの観光には最高の立地でした。インド門まですぐに行けて、レオポルドカフェや博物館、Kala Ghodaのショップなどにもアクセスしやすいです。部屋も清潔で快適でした。スタッフも優しく丁寧に対応してくれました。併設されているantiSOCIALの音が深夜帯は少し気になりますが、むしろそこで飲むのが好きな人間なので、インドの人たちとの交流を十分に楽しめました。
