The Gordon House Hotel

This was my 13th time to visit India, but only the second time to visit Mumbai. This hotel was much better than the last one I stayed in circa 2014. Both were in the same area which is where I wanted to be. Obviously I would have preferred the Tata Palace but, but, but. This hotel was very good. WiFi was good breakfast was very nice. A story: My daughter and I were in the airport awaiting Dawa Yangji Sherpa from Nepal to arrive. A man, perhaps in his 70s, arrived and was met by 8 young men. Each of them bent down and touched his shoes, folded their hands and bowed. I asked the meaning. It was to show respect and honor to the man. Two days later on Elephanta Island we saw six beautiful women in beautiful saris. My daughter asked for permission to photograph them. They agreed and posed. I stayed in the back out of the way. After the photographs, four of the women came to me, touched my shoes, folded their hands and bowed. I was greatly honored and humbled. I was overcome with humility.

Great location and very peaceful inside
