2-Star Hotels in Maharashtra, India

We booked the hotel because of its location. No doubt the location does provide advantages given the hotel’s proximity to Colaba’s and Churchgate’s prime location. Unfortunately that’s the only good thing about the hotel. There’s no signage or directions to reach the hotel’s reception. There’s a watchman who is found glued to his phone almost all the time. There’s an elevator to reach the 3rd floor but the guests are not allowed to take the luggage in it so come prepared with warm up exercise dragging your trolleys and suitcases up the stairs The gentleman manning the reception desk desperately needs a crash course in hospitality. His appearance resembles a disgruntled government bank employee who is least interested in working. In my case he was quick to point out that he could see my booking but can’t validate that we had made a booking for our son. Our ‘warm welcome’ started with a rather cold argument and ended with me making a payment upfront. The hotel’s geyser switch is located in the lobby so if by any chance you need a hot shower you are required to go out and switch the geyser on and by any chance if you fail to switch it off, be ready for a lecture from the uncle at the reception. Finally the rooms are tiny and there’s no restaurant so the complimentary breakfast is served in the room. The quality and quantity of the breakfast served was satisfactory although worth noting that they follow the Indian Railways philosophy that ‘non-veg’ translates strictly as ‘bread omelette’ For a small hotel the number of staff is relatively high who always expect a tip.

I had an amazing stay at this hotel! the room had an excellent ambience clean, spacious, and very comfortable. The washroom and bathroom were spotless and well-maintained. The service was top-notch with the staff being polite and attentive. The highlight was definitely the breakfast it was absolutely the best with a great variety and delicious options. I highly recommend this place

Radha's Cottage is a lovely retreat, very well located at the end of the road in Matheran. It's a simple place, furnished largely with period furniture. The food is outstanding - the best I've had in 6 weeks of traveling in India. For those who are unfamiliar with Matheran as I was, a couple pieces of information: - The ”toy train” runs very infrequently. Be sure to get a schedule if you plan to take it from the parking. - It's a 4.5km walk from the train station near the parking to Radha's. Don't believe the stationmaster if he tells you it's a 20 minute walk, it's an hour's walk. - It's still another 1.5km from the train station in the village to Radha's. If you've got a bag it's probably a good idea to get some help from a porter. - Sometimes the electricity goes out. When we stayed, these outages were brief, just a minute or 2. - Sometimes the water in the bathroom is dark brown. This surprised us one morning. It's dirt, and cleared during the course of the day.

This hotel does something so cool and different from other hotels I’ve been to in India, they offer complimentary snacks in the evening from 5:30-6:30pm which offers you an opportunity to try local food. They also put a few snacks in your room which was a really nice touch. They also offer a complimentary foot massage each morning which is a really nice to have. The staff are incredibly nice. The best part of my room was the little balcony. The bed and pillows were incredibly uncomfortable though! It’s a well located hotel and about 5km from most tourist attractions and taxis are easy to come by.

I liked everything about the stay however the major turn off was that the hotel is at 1st floor! It would have been of great help it this information was shared on the site considering i was travelling with my Mom, who is suffering from knee pain! The minute i saw the hotel entry i was literally screaming inside my head!! My mom had a hard time climbing up and down the stairs (it had almost 40 steps!!!) her knee pain gotten even worse.. i would have made a sound decision of choosing hotel if this was mentioned in the website. This hotel is not elderly friendly. So i recommend choosing this hotel if you are not travelling with elderly.

Decent hotel, very near to cs t station, suite room was excellent with nice interior. Very good breakfast and great service. If the price was little more competitive then it would have been awesome. Would definitely like to visit again.

I was here 3 nights.  This is a pretty low price for what you get.  There are also many other dormitories around.  Air-conditioned room with free Wi-Fi and fan in each capsule.  There were cameras in the room, as well as a locker for your things.  Clean linen.  If you are taller than 180 cm, you will not be able to lie down here completely.  There is no shampoo, shower gel or toilet paper in the bathroom.  5 minutes from Sakinaka and Asalpha metro stations.  Nice staff by the way.  When I was sleeping, 1000 rupees accidentally fell out of my pocket onto the floor, but the staff gave it back to me, for which I thank them.  This is excellent value for money.

Liked… 1. Proximity to Kalyan Junction Station (few minutes walk) 2. Once inside (lift to 3rd floor) the reception area etc was fine. Didn’t like: 1. Access is shocking - ***** a rough road and down a less than salubrious side street. See photos. 2. Would have been nice to be provided with some drinking water 3. Shower area not spotlessly clean. Hair and scum on the grill over the drain 4. Only a blanket was provided on the bed (aside of bottom sheet and pillows). Can’t imagine this is washed between guests. Asked for a top sheet (so had a “barrier” between body and blanket) but nothing forthcoming. 5. For the quality of accommodation it felt overpriced.

Location is good , easy to go to ***y attractions place in Mumbai but difficult to find at the first time it couldn’t found in Google map Room is very small and not have much amenities only A/C, Hot shower, Elevator and TV which foreigners not understand Staff was good

All the staff were humble and they provide good privacy and least interruption. Location is awesome. Some electrical fittings and bathroom tap leak is there but it hardly bothers your stay. Good for family and breakfast is also nice.
