Ananteshwar Hotel

If you are ever down near Dhuliya Chokdi in Kandivali West, you know how busy it gets. Ananteshwar Hotel is right there on Navsari Road 3, and the noise from the traffic never really stops. We get a lot of people passing through who are just looking for a place to sit for a minute. The building is older, and the ceiling fans make a bit of a clicking sound when they are on high. It is just the way things are here. We don't try to hide the wear and tear because it shows that people actually spend time here. In the mornings, the light hits the front windows in a weird way that makes it hard to see outside for an hour or so. We usually spend that time getting things ready for the day ahead. There is always something to do, like wiping down the tables or checking the kitchen supplies. Navsari Road 3 is a long stretch, and we see all sorts of folks. Some are in a hurry and others just want to linger. We don't mind either way. Kandivali West has a lot of energy, and being at Dhuliya Chokdi puts us right in the middle of it. It’s a practical place, really. We keep things moving and try to stay organized, even when it gets a bit chaotic during the lunch rush. It is just a regular hotel run by regular people who know the neighborhood well.
