Would strongly recommend the Four Seasons over the St Regis. If you choose Bandra, Taj Lands End is a solid choice (and if you’re lucky you’ll get a room on their renovated floors).

Thanks all for the help. Both Four Seaons & St. Regis look nice and tbh in the US those are out of my league. AER looks really cool. Does either have a better jacuzzi/sauna/steam room or I am sure both are nice.
Seems like I can enjoy a cocktail at AER and check out Bandra one night and obviously day time will go to Colaba & Fort. Hopefully can see the Dhobi Ghat too and maybe try to find 1 excursion in the time I have as well.
Is Juhu worth making a venture too or not with my limited time?
I was also wondering about street food- I've been told its a Hard NO but I was chatting with a tour guide who says they have some hygenic street food spots but I was still a little leary. Just curious to get the general consensus on that..
I've eaten street food in Thailand, Singapore, Taiwan & Vietnam (although with a bit more care than the other 3) but India I've heard all the stories of folks getting sick so just wasnt sure.
Thanks
