Made famous by Bollywood, Mumbai can very well be described as the Hollywood of India. While Delhi enjoys the importance of being the political capital of the nation, Mumbai is definitely the financial capital of the India. From old Victorian style architecture, to posh new hotels in Mumbai, everything is found here. Living in Mumbai is not so difficult with so many hotels at your disposal. So if you’re traveling in Mumbai then be sure be generous with your cash and you would not have to be worried about finding a nice hotel in Mumbai.
The crowds and chaos of Bombay can bewilder even the savviest of travelers and it has been predicted that if the population explosion continues then by 2015, it would be the world's most populous city. Mumbai is aggressively modern, yet in parts verging on medieval; glamorous, yet rough-edged; dazzlingly cosmopolitan, yet quintessentially Indian. Same goes for the hotels in Mumbai. They might be ranging from extremely modern, posh and with a sky-rocketing bill to extremely simple, to the extent of being a dilapidated structure. If you want neither one of these kinds of hotels in Mumbai then opt for something in between.
The names of the places here are very different from the rest of India. Names such as ‘The Queen's Necklace’ and ‘Elephanta Island’ are some examples and they all have their roots in the British Empire. From people to structure to the life style here, everything is an experience and cannot be reduced to a mere tourist sight. It is the life style of Mumbai which draws so many people to it every year.
