The LaLiT Mumbai, a true symbol of luxury, inclusivity, and cultural richness, proudly completes two decades of redefining the hospitality landscape. Known for seamlessly blending India’s vibrant heritage with modern-day elegance, the hotel continues to set new benchmarks in service, design, and diversity.
With Asia’s largest seven-story atrium lobby, The LaLiT Mumbai doubles as a living museum, showcasing masterpieces by artists like Satish Gujral. Art and culture have always been at the hotel’s core, offering guests an immersive and enriching experience far beyond the ordinary.
Through the years, The LaLiT Mumbai has evolved to match the changing preferences of guests. From tech-led upgrades to culinary innovations, it remains ahead of the curve. The Unified Flavours of The LaLiT brings together iconic dishes from the brand’s 12 properties. Signature dining experiences like Baluchi offer regional Indian cuisine, OKO brings authentic Pan-Asian delights, and The LaLiT Boulangerie celebrates European pastry craftsmanship.
Since 2015, Kitty Su has redefined Mumbai’s nightlife. More than a club, it’s a celebration of freedom and self-expression. Hosting renowned drag artists including Violet Chachki, Alaska Thunderfuck, Laganja Estranja, Elista, and Rani Ko-He-Nur, its #PURELOVE nights are a powerful tribute to inclusivity and identity.
Further enhancing guest experiences, Spiceology Spa draws from India’s rich wellness traditions, blending indigenous spices and age-old techniques to offer holistic rejuvenation.

“For 20 years, The LaLiT Mumbai has been more than a hotel—it has been a home for travelers, a platform for artists, and a model for inclusivity. As we move forward, we remain committed to offering ‘Distinctly LaLiT’ experiences where tradition meets innovation,” said Mr. Nishchint Pathania, General Manager, The LaLiT Mumbai.
