More information on Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture
In a city this polluted, a stay at this multiple-award-winning eco-friendly hotel at least serves to relieve some tourist guilt. But that's not the only reason to stay here: Thankfully, the hotel's commitment to preserving the environment is combined with reasonably good taste and impressive service. Environment-friendly considerations include solar-powered terrace lights, wastewater treatment technology, in-room recycle bins, and a UV-treated chlorine-free swimming pool. You'll find plants in all the rooms (which are comfortable) and understated furniture made from Nuwud Medium Density Fibre "wood," the eco-conscious alternative to ripping down entire forests. Emphasizing the eco-theme, paintings and prints of orchids and flowers are found throughout the hotel, and the lobby features a six-story water curtain -- recycled water, of course. The rooftop pool with its Mexican hacienda-style barbecue restaurant offers interesting views -- particularly if you enjoy watching Mumbai's heavy air traffic come and go.
