JW Marriott Mumbai Sahar Unveils EL – The Portal to Elsewhere

JW Marriott Mumbai Sahar Unveils EL – The Portal to Elsewhere

JW Marriott Mumbai Sahar has added a bold new chapter to the city’s luxury social scene with the launch of EL – The Portal to Elsewhere, a rooftop destination that redefines elevation through design, flavor, and imagination. More than a bar, EL is an immersive experience, a state of being that invites guests to rise above the ordinary.

The journey begins on the staircase leading upward, setting the tone for an experience suspended between reality and reverie. Once at the top, guests are welcomed into a world where architecture, light, and rhythm converge, creating an atmosphere both intimate and exhilarating.

EL unfolds across three distinct yet interconnected zones. The BubbEl Room offers an elegant Champagne experience perfect for quiet celebration. Moving further, the Indoor Bar becomes the heart of the venue, where premium spirits and elevated cocktails invite connection and indulgence. Finally, the Open Sky Dining area opens beneath a canopy of stars, offering global flavors and refined dining that feel effortlessly chic.

Driven by the philosophy of “Flavors That Travel,” EL’s menu acts as a passport for the palate, weaving together influences from Japan, South America, and the Mediterranean. Dishes like citrus-infused tiraditos, artisanal grills, and shareable tapas are designed for evenings that linger, refined yet approachable, bold yet balanced.

The bar experience, aptly titled “Elevated Cocktails for Another World,” takes mixology to new heights with creative spirit-forward concoctions. Guests can explore across three moods—Citrusy & Fruity, Floral & Herbal, and Strong & Stirred, each representing a journey of flavor and imagination. Highlights include the truffle-infused Enchanted, the smoky and tart Topamine, the aromatic Elixir, and the warming, nutty Asgardian, each crafted to transport guests from the familiar to the extraordinary.

Speaking on the launch, Sachin Mylavarapu, General Manager, JW Marriott Mumbai Sahar, said, “With EL, we’re reimagining what a bar experience can mean within modern luxury. JW Marriott Sahar has always been synonymous with exceptional hospitality, but this launch takes that promise to new heights, literally and creatively. EL is designed to become more than a venue; it’s an experience that evokes emotion, curiosity, and connection through flavour, music, and design.”

More than just a new venue, EL reflects the hotel’s spirit of evolution, bold, dynamic, and deeply attuned to its guests. It symbolizes JW Marriott Sahar’s ongoing commitment to crafting experiences that are timeless yet forward-looking, rooted in excellence yet alive with imagination.

As Mumbai’s skyline glows beneath, EL stands as the city’s newest address for those who seek something beyond the expected, a place where evenings don’t just unfold, they ascend.

EL – The Portal to Elsewhere. Elevate Yourself.
