Luxury Room

The only thing this grade gives up is the water. It is 37 square metres, the same floor as the Premier Room, the Bay View Rooms and the Premier Ocean View Rooms, with a king or twin bed, an upholstered armchair, a walk-in wardrobe, a writing desk with a cordless telephone, and a bathroom with a standalone bathtub and a separate shower.

The window is the whole wall, and what it holds is the city rather than the sea — worth something at 6 in the morning, when Mumbai is grey and orange and the crows come off the roofs together. Two adults, and room for up to 2 children under 12 with them.
