Expert reviews

New York Times review:

“A few blocks from seaside Carter Road in Bandra, Le Sutra bills itself as an Indian art hotel. Each of the 16 rooms has a different theme — Taal, or ‘beat,’ comes with instruments, bells and a chair fashioned from a drum — and one of the two restaurants, the Mediterranean-inspired Olive Bar & Kitchen is a longstanding go-to hangout for hip Bandra-ites.”

Pleasant

Location, staff at front desk

I had to call, and wait 30mins at airport to get my prearranged pickup. After a flight from Europe and arriving in middle of night and tired, would have expected the prearranged taxi ready to pick me up. Had called twice to hotel and once to driver to get finally picked up. Not good, considering the charge hotel of 3times price of uber. Next time I will take the prepaid taxi.

location great, would expect much more given the history of the place..

nice location, walking distance to restaurants. eggs for breakfast as per your request.

very busy at check in, had requested early check in via booking.com, the manager replied days later after checkin.. the breakfast was disappointing, day 1 full buffet spread but food was cold and the toasted sandwhiches were cold. day 2 no buffet but items were available via a menu only to be told that the dhosa/uttapa or all south indian starters are not available. the ac in the room 308 points directly onto the bed and is not adjustable. requested for softer pillows and was given the same pillow. they are all very hard and overfilled.

Authentic Indian Art Hotel

Staying at Le Sutra was a wonderful experience. Every room has its own signature design. Ours was the Shuddhi themed room and it was very comfortable. Staff is friendly and helpful. The hotel is located in the lively Khar neighborhood. There are plenty of bars and restaurants nearby. On our last day we booked a treatment at their in-house spa; a relaxing way to end our Mumbai trip.

To our surprise, the restaurant kitchen was being renovated during our stay. Breakfast was served in the art gallery and this felt a little bit improvised.

Good stay. Will be back.

Good: A) the bed is very comfortable, the facilities are clean B) the front desk is very responsive and the staff very helpful (helping walk with me with an umbrella outside, Sivam helped me with luggage, etc) C) breakfast and coffee at Out of the Blue is excellent - Boris was especially helpful D) love the little bhel/nut samplers with every turn down service. Very thoughtful! Hope that helps

Can be improved: 1) the lighting switches in Prakriti (room 307) are very very confusing. I finally just press various buttons just to see what happens - a lot of trial and error. I think the labels and instructions could be better. 2) the AC in Prakriti is really really cold. Even if I raise the temperature to 20. And the fan is definitely noisy 3) I had asked for a couple of clothes (jeans, tshirt) to be laundered (I was expecting them to be INR 75 each) but they came back dry cleaned (at INR 250 each). Apparently there isn’t a wash-and-iron option, which I didn’t quite get. That price difference felt like a ripoff. Please let your clients know that you ONLY dry clean - it’s important information.

No value for money. You are paying 5 star rates for 3 star experience.

Breakfast. Very basic nothing to talk about.

Fabulous

This boutique hotel does not have a flashy facade or reception but inside our room was very spacious, well-presented and comfortable. Each room has its own theme featuring artwork and ornaments and lifted the whole feel, even though there was no outside view. The staff were extremely friendly and accommodating and their interactions felt genuine as opposed to other hotels where the staff seem to be just hoping for tips. Because the hotel wasn't overrun with guests, we enjoyed a very personalised service during breakfast which offered a selection of Indian and Western foods (eggs, dosa, cereal, etc).

As a tourist, the hotel's location wasn't so interesting. Although it was close to the beach there wasn't too much else to see without taking a rickshaw to Hill Rd (approx 10 mins) for some shopping or the like. One of the biggest drawdowns was there was an unfortunate dried fish odour permeating the whole area near the hotel. This affected the outdoors of their restaurant which means we preferred to dine inside to avoid the smell. For the most part, this didn't affect the rooms but it was a bit of a put off to what was otherwise an enjoyable stay (and wouldn't stop us from going back again).

Best stay in years

Everything about this hotel was excellent. Only a small hotel but what they lack in size is more than made up for by everything else.. Our room was not huge, but beautifully designed, modern and spotless. Breakfast was excellent, a mix of buffet & fresh order. The restaurant & bar was also excellent. Next time in Mumbai we will stay there again.

Nothing. Being only small, they don't have a pool or gym, but that didn't count as everything else was so good.

The suite was very comfortable and clean

The passage ways are very narrow and the lift is pretty small, dark and scary. Breakfast was very sad. No variety and poorly presented.

Interesting small hotel, but bring ear plugs.

Good sized room with plenty of space for clothes. Restaurant at hotel and the Olive restaurant next door were both good. It's in a decent area, a short walk to the ocean front.

I forgot my ear plugs. These are necessary unless you are a heavy sleeper - it's Mumbai, the traffic is noisy and this is not a modern hotel with impenetrable soundproofing.

Lovely little boutique hotel in a pleasant area of Mumbai . It's a rather small property with narrow stairs/ corridors and small lift. So, those who are used to staying in chain, branded hotels and prefer those, then it's not for you. This hotel is for those who wish to experience something classy, artistic and unique. Although, it's small, it's rooms are large and the interior decor / furniture is unique and outstanding. Staff were all friendly and helpful.

Breakfast choices good be more extensive. Otherwise a good, little , boutique hotel.

it was my third stay in the hotel and I would book it again.

The price-performance ratio is really attractive since the Hotel is located in Bandra which is the best place to stay in mumbai and still you don’t pay a fortune. moreover it’s a boutique hotel with descent interior and the service is really good.

Nothing.

Excellent short stay. V good restaurant and wine and rooms are very comfortable and nice.

The last time we were here a few years ago the breakfast was so-so. This the it was very good. Choices at part with most hotels anywhere in the world.

The blinds in the rooms could be better and at the next renovation windows could be made a bit more sound proofed from road noise, although its not enough to hamper sleep.
