Frommer's Review

Any address along Marine Drive is highly sought after, and the blue-mirrored glass facade of this self-styled "fashionably small" upmarket establishment is no exception, though it's not in the same class as The Oberoi or InterContinental. Like the hotel, the marble lobby is small, its main stairway concealing a quaint lounge from which you can stare up at people swimming in the glass-bottom pool on the fifth floor. Most of the accommodations are suites, some of which are relatively well-priced but require neck-straining to get a look at the view; make sure to specify a room with a direct sea view. Besides swimming, the pool deck affords wonderful views over Back Bay and the entire Queen's Necklace strip. Like many other upscale hotels in Mumbai, Marine Plaza gets busy at weekends, especially on weekend nights and at Sunday lunch, when the popular Bayview and Oriental Blossom restaurants are filled with locals, and the bar, Geoffrey's, buzzes until 12:30am.

Facilities:
2 restaurants; pastry shop; bar; pool w/Jacuzzi; gym; business center; 24-hr. room service; laundry; doctor-on-call; Wi-Fi enabled

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
