Four Seasons Mumbai

A bastion of modern luxury
Word to the wise: It'd be a crime not to visit the two-storey spa. Splurge on the hotel's signature apoha mizra massage, with combines Western techniques with ayurvedic healing traditions.

Tipple of choice: While you'll pay much less for a glass of pineapple nectar on the street, the in-house juice bar is a lovely novelty.
Rivaling only the Taj Palace for top-end decadence, the Four Seasons Mumbai is quite the showstopper. Opened in 2008, it's among the newest of Mumbai's five star sleeps, and no luxury was speared in its construction.

Located in the up-and-coming Worli district, the hotel's 202 contemporary, neutral-toned rooms and suites have floor-to-ceiling windows offering spectacular views across Mumbai and the Arabian Sea. That said, the vista from Aer Bar, occupying the entire 34th floor rooftop is utterly unbeatable - stop by during sunset happy hour from 5.30pm - 8pm daily.

A smattering of luxe Eur-Asian restaurants, a full gym, glorious outdoor pool and enormous day spa all add to the prestige, while the complimentary yoga and meditation classes are a welcome local touch.
