What it is
From here, Mumbai's main attractions — including Bassein and Kolaba Fort, Alibaug — are an easy walk or short ride away, so you spend less time in transit and more time exploring.
Where it sits
Hotel Crawford Inn is in Alibaug, at 5Th To 9Th Floor B Shalimar Estates, Mumbai. Straight-line, that is about 16 km from Terminal 2, 1 km from CSMT and the Fort offices, and 14 km from the Bandra Kurla Complex.
Road times in Mumbai are not a function of distance. Modelled at the city-wide average of about 17 km/h, that is roughly 58 minutes to the airport, 5 minutes to Fort and 49 minutes to BKC — add half again in the evening peak, and take the train instead wherever the route allows. These are modelled figures, not measured ones.

Staying in Alibaug
Three bands. Around Nagaon and Akshi, mid-range resorts and homestays run ₹4,500 to ₹8,000 a night in December, with beach access across the road rather than in front of you. Kihim and Awas, closer to Mandwa jetty and therefore the shortest transfer, hold the boutique villas and small luxury properties — ₹15,000 to ₹45,000 a night, whole-house bookings common, and the ones worth paying for have staff cooks and functioning generators. Alibaug town itself is cheap, ₹2,000 to ₹3,500, but you are in a market town with a beach five minutes away and mosquitoes. Avoid anything advertising itself as a beachfront resort on Alibaug main beach — the sand there is grey silt, the water shallow and murky, and the beach doubles as a road for horse carts. Also avoid the roadside places on the Alibaug–Revdanda stretch during weekends: tour groups, loudspeakers, no quiet.
More on the neighbourhood, including how to move around it and what is worth walking to, is on the Alibaug page.
What it costs
We do not hold a live rate for Hotel Crawford Inn at the moment. Check the live price before you plan around a number — Mumbai rates move with the trade-fair and wedding calendars, and a room can double in the week of a large event.
November to February is the expensive season and the comfortable one. June to September — the monsoon — is the cheapest, and the rain is less of an obstacle than people expect if you plan around the mornings.

I had a terrific experience at this hotel and would advise others to avoid it. The hotel was hard to find, located in a foul smelling alley with no proper signage. The service was unprofessional and unorganised from the beginning. The room was stained bedding, leaking fixtures and bathroom amenities. No action was…Krishanu Srimani (Fake Identity) · 1/5
Another hotel in the Mumbai region that doesn't answer calls to the number provided by them on Google. Seems like it is a trend here in Mumbai. Phone connects to an IVR that runs for 5 mins and then disconnects on its own later. WHY DO YOU PROVIDE A NUMBER IF YOU DON'T WANT TO ANSWER CALLS?! How do you expect to get…Megh Bale · 1/5
This hotel is under renovation. Half of the building is broken, and the other half is being used. Rooms look decent, but there is no view outside as you wish. The cafeteria and breakfast is basic the room by Sir, okay, but one of the senior front desk person is very rude and arrogant.Ranganayakulu Bodavala · 3/5
