What it is

Guests typically choose Chembur for its balance of location and price; Lavender Bough is a good fit if you want to be near the action in Mumbai.

Rates shift with the season and with demand, so the live price on the booking page is always the one to trust — tap through for tonight's or your dates' real availability.

Where it sits

Lavender Bough is in Chembur, at Next To Swaminarayan Temple 90 Feet Road Garodia Nagar Ghatkopar Garodia Nagar Ghatkopar East Mumbai Maharashtra 400077 India, Mumbai. Straight-line, that is about 5 km from Terminal 2, 17 km from CSMT and the Fort offices, and 4 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 17 minutes to the airport, 60 minutes to Fort and 15 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.

What is included

The property lists 22 facilities. The ones that decide a booking are grouped below; anything unusual — early check-in, a late departure, a desk that takes a laptop — is worth confirming when you book, because listings and reality drift.

Staying in Chembur

Cluster your search along RC Marg, Chembur Naka and the Eastern Express Highway service road, where mid-range business hotels run ₹2,800–₹6,000 a night with breakfast and parking — the same standard costs ₹12,000 in Worli. Serviced apartments around Diamond Garden and Sindhi Society go for ₹45,000–₹80,000 a month and suit long postings on the eastern corridor. The best rooms are the ones facing the golf club or the garden rather than the highway; ask directly, because listings do not distinguish. Avoid the very cheap lodges immediately outside Chembur station on the Harbour line side, where rooms are ₹1,200 but the lanes are unlit and the train noise starts at 4.30am. Also avoid anything advertised as Chembur that is really in Mankhurd or Govandi; the connectivity story does not hold there.

What it costs

We do not hold a live rate for Lavender Bough 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.
