From the door of the St. Regis

The St. Regis, Lower Parel. From the door, and back to it.

The St. Regis, Lower Parel stands at Senapati Bapat Marg, Lower Parel, above Palladium. The house delivers guests to its door and collects them from it: from Terminal 2 in forty to sixty minutes by the Sea Link; Terminal 1 in thirty-five to fifty-five; Navi Mumbai Airport in sixty to ninety. Your sarathi knows the porte-cochère, the lane, the hour the road is slow, and the hotel’s own staff know the house’s cars. The hotel’s concierge is not involved unless you wish it — the arrangement is yours, written to you, and the house answers for it.

I

At the door

The St. Regis and Palladium share an approach from Senapati Bapat Marg that is busy at the wrong hours; the hotel’s own porte-cochère is the upper level, and your sarathi knows the lane that reaches it without the mall’s queue. Departures are collected under the same canopy.

II

To the airport

Your sarathi suggests the pickup time for your flight and the hour, with time inside it for the road and the terminal; the cases carried to the departures kerb; the car at the door of the hotel, not idling on the road. For arrivals, met inside the terminal with a board in your name, two hours of waiting after an international landing and ninety minutes after a domestic one inside the figure.

For the day

From the St. Regis, the house is most often asked for the airport before dawn, BKC by nine, and dinners in Bandra and Colaba. A wedding at the hotel’s ballrooms is a week of arrivals the house has done; see weddings.

The wait is inside the figure ninety minutes after a domestic landing, two full hours after an international one, counted from the moment the aircraft reaches the gate; the flight tracked from the city it leaves; the airport parking for the whole of that wait paid by the house. How the house waits →

Which car

The Innova Hycross hybrid for one or two guests and their cases; the Mercedes E-Class or S-Class for a guest who should arrive at the St. Regis as the hotel would wish; the Carnival for a family; a Marque car written for an occasion. The figures by zone are on the rate card and written to you before the car moves.

Inside every written figure: the car, your sarathi, fuel, every toll, parking at both ends and GST. Nothing is added on the day, and no meter runs.

A note on independence

The house is not the hotel’s car service and does not claim to be. It is a house of its own that many guests of the St. Regis prefer to use, for the sarathi who rides with them, the figure that does not move, and the car that waits. If the hotel’s desk can serve you better on a given day, the house will say so.

Reserve a car from the St. RegisThe flight, or the hours. The figure is written first.

Questions guests ask

Do you pick up from The St. Regis, Lower Parel for the airport?
Yes — at the door, under the porte-cochère, at the minute written, with the cases carried to the departures kerb. Terminal 1, Terminal 2 or Navi Mumbai Airport.
How long is The st. regis to Mumbai Airport?
Terminal 2 in forty to sixty minutes by the Sea Link; Terminal 1 in thirty-five to fifty-five; Navi Mumbai Airport in sixty to ninety. Your sarathi suggests the road for the hour.
Can I keep the car for the day from the hotel?
Yes — by the hour, two at the least, the same car and sarathi all day, written as one figure from the door.
Are you the hotel’s car service?
No. The house is independent; many guests of the hotel use it for the sarathi, the written figure and the wait. The hotel’s desk is not involved unless you wish it.
Will the chauffeur know the hotel’s entrance?
Yes — the porte-cochère, the lane that reaches it, and the hour it is slow.
