Ramada Plaza by Wyndham Palm Grove
The hotel itself was excellent. Room was nice, Service and staff were brilliant. However the pool area let it down badly. Not the pool. That was great. But the area was never cleaned or washed down on an evening. It was so dirty. Tables were not cleared and the pool side was disgusting. Need to invest ...

Novotel Mumbai International Airport
The property is excellent. Rooms are spacious. Service is first class too. Location is close to the airport. Gym space is good though equipment is limited. Breakfast has good variety though I couldn't fathom how a 5 star doesn't have sprouts in it. Overall I recommend staying there.
