What it is
From here, Mumbai's main attractions — including central Powai — are an easy walk or short ride away, so you spend less time in transit and more time exploring.
Because pricing is set live by the hotel and its suppliers, the figure shown here is a recent snapshot; check the current rate for your exact dates before booking.
Where it sits
The Caliph Hotel is in Powai, at M S Metro Hospitality Pvt Ltd 101, Mumbai. Straight-line, that is about 5 km from Terminal 2, 21 km from CSMT and the Fort offices, and 7 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, 74 minutes to Fort and 23 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 21 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 Powai
Split the decision by which side of the lake you need. For lake views and conference space, the Renaissance and Lakeside Chalet on Adi Shankaracharya Marg and the Westin at Hiranandani Business Park run ₹9,000–₹16,000 a night midweek, more when a convention fills the ballroom. For eco-certified and quieter, Rodas and Meluha The Fern sit inside Hiranandani Gardens off Central Avenue at ₹6,500–₹11,000. Long-stay consultants should look at serviced apartments around Powai Plaza and Nahar Amrit Shakti in Chandivali, where a month runs ₹65,000–₹1,10,000. Avoid the very cheap guesthouses along Saki Vihar Road near the Chandivali junction — they are ₹2,500 rooms with no lift, generator noise and an unlit 700 m walk to any restaurant. Also avoid anything advertised as Powai but with a Vikhroli or Kanjurmarg address; the highway crossing is miserable on foot.

What it costs
We do not hold a live rate for The Caliph Hotel at the moment; hotels in Powai on our list start at about ₹8,900 a night. 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.

The Caliph Hotel is a decent option if you’re looking for something under ₹6,000 in Powai. The room was fairly spacious and clean, though the interiors could use an update. Service was a bit slow, especially during check-in, but the staff was polite. Breakfast was included and had limited but decent options. The best…CHAKALA POTHALAIAH · 3/5
