The Fariyas is a very nice hotel. I’m basing this on four factors: the service was excellent and thoughtful; the food was great with a lot of variety; and the hotel was clean and comfortable. Also, depending on your plan, the hotel location is excellent and within walking distance to ***y important sites in the Colaba area including the UNESCO Victorian and Art Deco area (i.e., British Colonial Buildings). A note about the food. Although there were western and Indian options, I only ate Indian. The variety was great to me as were the flavor and quality. Be sure to order a masala dosa. One thing to note is that “excellent” doesn’t mean perfect. If this will be your first trip to Asia or India, you may find something that didn’t meet your expectations. For me it was an excellent, comfortable stay and I felt very well taken care of.
