    Traffic and meetings

    Posted by briefcaseboy 4 August 2008

    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.

    Taxi vs hire car

    Posted by Imalone 4 August 2008

    In India, when you hire a car you automatically get a driver included - which is a very good idea as I personally would not recommend driving in such a hectic town, especially if you're used to northern European/US traffic.

    This is an ideal way to get from meeting to meeting, as the driver is at your disposal all day and will come and go as you require. It also works out to be a cheaper alternative to booking individual taxis, especially if your company has a set rate with a particular hire car company.

    Major hire car companies such as Hertz, Avis, etc.

    Hotel Leela

    Posted by Mickg123 22 July 2008

    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.
