This five star beach front hotel is a sanctuary of calm, perfect for tourists and business travellers looking to temporarily escape the chaotic sights and sounds of the city. The central location, however, means that guests won’t be completely cut off. But Novotel doesn’t just cater to out-of-towners. The chic in-house restaurants and bars – Sampan, Olio, The Square and Gadda da Vida draw their share of Mumbaikars. With access to the bpb 1Up! pass, you can see for yourself, without paying a dime.
