Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts last week opened the doors of its first property on the Indian subcontinent: Four Seasons Hotel Mumbai. The Hotel’s 33-storey gleaming glass tower enlivens the skyline of the city’s emerging Worli district and serves as an iconic reference to the spirit of ‘new’ India.

“It’s a real privilege to be planting the Four Seasons flag in India,” said Armando Kraenzlin, General Manager. “Mumbai is a world metropolis and the Hotel is located in an exciting part of town.  It sets new standards in the city for hospitality and service and we look forward to introducing international guests to what modern India has to offer.”

“We want to ensure that the Hotel has a positive impact, not only on its guests and the local business community but also on those communities in its immediate vicinity,” explained Kraenzlin. “Mumbai is a complex city in many ways and we are determined to make our arrival here significant for all the right reasons.”
