India
The new place for doing business is the Bandra Kurla Complex; the Grand Hyatt is five minutes away and is very good, with an Italian restaurant that serves excellent pizza. The area’s a bit grungy but the hotel has its own ten-acre plot and once inside it has everything you’d want – including faxes in the rooms and Wi-Fi.
Because the traffic is so bad in Mumbai, if you're there on business it is a good idea to have your meetings and do your entertaining at the hotel you are staying at, rather than having to traipse around town. Most of the big international hotels have suites and meeting rooms and good restaurants attached to them.
If you're just in Mumbai for the day, passing through, stay at the Leela. It's a good five-star hotel two minutes from the international airport. Mumbai is a fantastic city but traffic can be a problem so if you don't have to journey into her, don't.
