Fodor's Expert Review Vivanta by Taj–President

Favored by business travelers, this hotel in the heart of charming Cuffe Parade also offers some great views, a choice of restaurants, and a hip bar. Rooms are comfortable and modern, with polished wood floors, wall-mounted televisions, and massage showers—sea-facing rooms cost slightly more, but the views of South Mumbai and the harbor are worth it. Although not as extravagant as its palatial counterpart near the Gateway of India, it's priced right for a business hotel. All three restaurants are good, and the bar, Wink, is a happening, if expensive, place. Despite its rebranding, no one ever has, or ever will, call it anything but Taj President.
