Hotel Harbour View

We traveled as a couple and both agreed the Hotel was a surprise once inside as you have to pass another hotel to arrive at Harbour View. We had a balcony room which I would recommend as this allows fresh air and a feeling of more space. Bed is very comfortable and whilst there is external noise when trying to sleep, we found it okay as the aircon drowned out most of the noise.

Very pleasantly surprised with this special little secret gem. A very warm welcome. Very attentive staff and certainly well equipped comfortable bed and room and breakfast on the top floor restaurant is also a bonus. This hotel is in an excellent location not far from the Taj Hotel/Gateway to India, and surrounded by shops, market stalls and a great variety of restaurants. Will definitely return and certainly spread the word. Thank you to all.

Lower floors of the hotel are a cheaper/different hotel. Can be pretty off putting when you arrive. But inside the rooms are fine, although very small. Staff were helpful

The night front desk guy had no personality, however the morning/day guy was really nice. The people in the restaurant were nice as well. This little hotel seems to be trying, and for the price, you get what you pay for. It's great for its location and proximity to shopping & the Gateway, it's literally a 3 minute walk to the Gateway and just 3 blocks from all the shops & restaurants in Colaba. The entrance seems seedy--the hotel on the first 2 floors is NOT nice at all... Harbour View please work with your neighbor downstairs to improve the entrance, it seems unsafe to a traveler. ROOM: comfortable enough, lots of USB outlets which was important to us. The shower was amazing! Had to request an iron as one wasn't in the room and it took 40 minutes to receive one (with no ironing board). The fan had ONE speed, warp speed, so it was either that or off, we slept with it off, it was too much and too loud to sleep peacefully. SERVICE: the manager is great, very warm, nice and helpful. The day time desk guy also super nice. The night guy(s) need to learn from the others. LOCATION: excellent, walk to shops, walk to Gateway (this is the main reason we chose it.) FOOD: the free breakfast in the morning was good. Not as many options as we were accustomed to with nicer hotels, but still very good as it had the homemade feel to it.

A true Gem to find in Bombay
