Hotel La Sutra, Mumbai
Expert reviews
“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.”

Loved the location, food and cleanliness! Will visit again
Loved the theme based room and its location and also the food at their restaurant out of blue
There was a slight smell outside near the property due to nearness to sea during summer season but it was not in control of the property

Good contemporary decor
Nice contemporary feel with lovely frescoes.
As soon as you leave the building there’s strong smell of fish throughout the day and evening!! I enquired about the smell and was informed that nearby there’s a fish drying place. If there was no smell I would be happy stay at Le Sutra again.

A pleasant experience!
The rooms are indeed very pretty and the staff was always helpful and kind. When you check-out, they even give you a nice little gift and thank you for being part of the experience.
Just one thing - which I admit is out of the Hotel's control. But on some nights, the nice is unbearable. There's a club nearby that hosts events and so it's really loud and you will be able to hear the bass as you try to fall asleep. The events only end at about 2am! The hotel does provide you with ear plugs though.

We were visiting family in Khar and the location couldn’t have been better. The staff were amazingly friendly and helpful, and access to nice restaurants and shopping is just beyond the door. The breakfasts were lovely

Nice hotel in good location
Great location - ideal to explore Bandra, but also short distance from Juhu. Some nice bars and restaurants very close. Staff were very friendly and accommodated our early arrival. Bedrooms are nice, spacious and cool - seemed good value comparatively to rest of the city.

Well worth the visit for a night or two.
The room was very artistic and large. The bar and breakfast attached was excellent. The desk staff was very helpful with our needs and transportation concerns.
A window in the room with a view and free drinks.

Stayed here for the second time and loved it again
I recently had the pleasure of revisiting this gem in Bandra, and once again, it exceeded my expectations. Le Sutra's charm lies in its intimate setting, location and the room's size and aesthetic are simply unparalleled. The attention to detail is commendable, making every stay feel personalized. While the breakfast was delightful, a slight improvement could enhance the overall experience. Nonetheless, my second stay only reaffirmed that this art hotel is truly a haven of comfort and style. Can't wait for my third visit!
The breakfast was good but could be better.

A very civilized introduction to Mumbai 😀
Comfortable, spotless and well staffed.
The location is rather a long way from anything in Mumbai that is “happening” at least an hour by Uber at busy time even though it is barely 9km in distance. In compensation Khar is well supplied with things to do and see.

Great location for easy access to airport.
Easy access to airport. Friendly staff. Excellent breakfast. Good restaurants nearby.
Quite a long way to downtown Mumbai.

Relaxed in a very pleasant environment.
Situated in a pleasant part of Mumbai, this is a first rate boutique hotel with excellent accommodation and staff.
There is nothing to dislike.

Amazing hotel and great staff who get customer service
Amazing attention to detail in every room Beautifully designed hotel
My room was above Olive Bar & Kitchen so it gets a bit noisy especially on Thursday nights when Olive Bar runs a party night. If you’re stays includes a Thursday night make sure you don’t get rooms overlooking the Bar

Arty hotel, spotless! Right in heart of Bandra.
Arty hotel in a fantastic location. The staff were helpful and they offered turn down service everyday. Rooms were super clean, comfortable, and had interesting details within them. Wifi was really strong. If you want to stay in Bandras this is a really good option.
A lot of food on offer for breakfast plus good service, however the quality was not as good as a lot of other places we have eaten in India. For price of hotel would expect bette and would prefer even spicier local food.

A must stay! If you want great customer service and pleasing stay book here!
Loved the modern stylish aesthetics of the hotel. Staff was impeccable. Felt safe and in a centrally located area.
The restaurant didn’t match the vibe of the hotel but the staff was excellent.

Nice boutique style hotel in Bandra
Great fresh breakfast buffet. Not very extensive but what they do have is all good quality. Eggs/ dosa to order. Delicious fresh fruit and juices. Top notch. Plus they packed us sandwiches and fruit for a 5.30am morning checkout. Bonus! Friendly staff.
This is next door to Olive Tree, a trendy bar / restaurant. One of the nights the music from Olive Tree was quite loud and went on till late, so not ideal if you want an extra quiet night.

Loved our stay!
Wonderful small hotel with friendly, helpful and polite staff, and excellent facilities. We loved the ambience of the "Out of the Blue" restaurant and dined there each evening enjoying delicious meals. We loved our 3-night stay!
Only problem was the loud booming from nearby Olive Bar's Music Night every Thursday till 2AM!

An original boutique hotel and a great location for both business and leisure travellers
Good location -not far from Bandra and Juhu Beach, while only 25 minutes by car from the airport. A lot of nice cafes, restaurants and bars in the area within walking distance too. The rooms are clean and very originally decorated. Breakfast is simple but complete (eggs in any style, paratha, dosa etc.). Staff is very friendly and polite -special thanks to the smiling reception desk lady, who is extremely responsive. I will definitely come back! :)
Evening/Night staff can be slow even for simple requests -it's better to deal with day staff for quick responses. The A/C is a bit loud. Hooks on the wall behind the entrance door would be very helpful in the room. Wi-Fi doesn't work so well. I used my mobile hotspot instead.

24 October 2023
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.

Great boutique hotel with friendly staff and a good base to explore this massive city
The staff are incredibly friendly, Anjali in particular who was on reception was so helpful and accommodated us above expectations. The spa was a great facility Rooms were clean and decorated well. Bed was comfy.
Nothing really - restaurant was being renovated when we were there so couldn't use those facilities
