“Great hotel at a price that's worth it...”
So glad that we decided to stay here! Everything about our stay was perfect. Although this hotel is one of the pricier ones in Mumbai, it is WORTH IT. We arrived at 6 a.m. the day we were due to check in, and asked when we would be able to check into the room. After a bit of discussion, they let us check into the room then and there for no extra charge, and upgraded our room for no particular reason. Everyone working there seems to really like their job, or is at least great at faking it...
“Very nice decor/friendly service”
I had a very pleasant stay at Vivanta Taj-President. Very nice modern decor, and great service. I was slightly upset that my taxi could not drive up to the entrance (security policy), but hotel staff were very helpful and tried to make up for that. I also forgot my cell phone simcard, and hotel concierge was extremely helpful in delivering it to me before leaving Mumbai.
“Taj”
I was very impressed with the level of service at this hotel. Each of the staff went out of their way to make my stay enjoyable. It was definitely one of the more pleasant hotel experiences I have had.
“Welcoming place in a busy city.”
My friend and I were traveling to India for the first time and had booked a few nights at the Taj President. We arrived and was happy with the hotel as far as the appearance, staff and cleanliness. Even Security. After flying all day and night then driving through Mumbai it was nice to have a place to call home for a few days. The hotel was friendly, courteous and polite without being pretentious. We enjoyed our stay and found everybody more than willing to please and help us from answering questions, giving directions and offering favorite spots to hang with locals. No problem with a late check out or holding our bags. The hotel was clean, room modern yet still relaxing. I didn't really use the facilities other than the business center. I would certainly recommend and use again when staying in the area. I loved Mumbai and the people. I would certainly want to return. I loved Mumbai and the people. I would certainly want to return.
“LIVES UP TO THE NAME!”
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS HOTEL THE STAFF VERY HELPFUL. THE BUFFET BREAKFAST THOUGH NOT INCLUDED IN THE HOTEL RATE WAS PLENTIFUL AND THE SERVICE JUST INCREDIBLE. THE ONLY THING THAT I FOUND NOT ATTRACTIVE FOR ME WAS THAT IS STRICKLY IS BUSINESS HOTEL BUT THAT WAS MY FAULT. THEY LIVE UP TO THE NAME TAJ!
“Good downtown hotel”
For living near the touristy spots in Mumbai, this is a decent hotel. Service is good and hotel staff is very helpful. Recommended.
“Efficient business hotel”
I had chosen the President because of two reasons - one because of its proximity to where I had a meeting and price points. I found that the taj president is a very efficient business hotel. It has the right amount of attention that you would like in a hotel. Generally i have found that taj hotels tend to over-wait on you. What i mean is that you would have a man or lady with a plastic smile and stiff namaskar at every pillar and around every corner of the house. The rooms were quietly comfortable, clean and practical. The small touches of a fruit basket, good quality toiletries made the stay very pleasant. The breakfast was well spread out with a selection that would cater to almost all tastes. Overall I found Taj to be excellent value for money and its unobtrusive service and would definitely recommend it.
“TaJ President”
Room is comfortable for business travellers. Well appointed and well maintained. Good gym and pool, excellent service throughout.
“Nice place, but check your bill twice”
Nice hotel with great location (minutes away from Colaba, Gateway to India, etc.). Rooms were tastefully furnished, very clean & modern. The hotel restaurants, while pricey, serve excellent food. Breakfast buffet is very complete (amazing bread!) and staff was friendly throughout. Big letdown at the checkout as lots of people in our group of 15 had some extra item on their bill (e.g. overcharged for breakfast buffet that was supposed to be included, etc.). Front desk somewhat grudingly removed an incorrect $30 charge for two breakfast buffets from my bill.
“Good but signs of being dated”
Great for a short stay and the service levels are incredible. Food quality (ordered room service) is exceptional even late at night. However the television channels and quality of reception are so-so and due to ongoing construction there is some noise to contend with. The plastic strips on the shower door were also peeling which was a big surprise in a hotel of this class. First class response by the hotel once I mentioned this issues.

Area:
Colaba, Mumbai, India: Colaba, situated at the southernmost tip of Mumbai, is one of the most exciting places in the city. Colaba Causeway is a tourist hub which runs parallel to the Gateway of India, which has always been a hot vacation destination. When in Colaba, visit the Prince of Wales Museum and the Regal Cinema, one of the few old movie theatres in service in the city of Mumbai. There are numerous shops and sidewalk stalls that deal in costume jewellery, t-shirts, low-priced leather goods, semi-precious stones, authentic Indian ware, as well as Kashmiri carpets and shawls. It's best to visit several shops while exploring all of the opportunities for a good deal and negotiating on price. The causeway is also lined with food kiosks, restaurants, and cafes. Leopold's Cafe & Bar and Cafe Mondegar are some the most famous restaurants in this area.
