Hotel Aircraft International

Hotel Aircraft International is located at 179 Dayal Das Road in Vile Parle East. The area is quite busy, and even though the address says 400026, we are right in the middle of the Vile Parle neighborhood. Being so close to the airport, you can hear the planes taking off and landing all through the day and night. It’s a sound we’ve all gotten used to over the years. The building itself is on a bit of a narrow road, so parking can be a bit of a headache sometimes. We spend a lot of our time sitting at the front desk or walking up and down the stairs to check the rooms. It’s an old-fashioned kind of place. We don’t have those fancy electronic keys or anything, just regular ones. The walls are painted a simple color and we try to keep them clean, though the Mumbai humidity makes it hard. Every morning, we watch the traffic build up on Dayal Das Road. People are always in a rush to get to the airport or the station. We see a lot of travelers who just need a place to crash for a few hours. It’s not a quiet place, but it’s real. We do our own laundry and sometimes the machine makes a loud banging noise. We just fix it and keep going. That is just how life is here at our hotel.
