Are there rooms in Mumbai Airport?

There is a hotel in Terminal 2 (the international terminal), Niranta Airport Transit Hotel & Lounge, if you don’t want to leave the premises. You can check in at anytime and pay by the hour so it’s a great option if you just need a few hours of shut eye and/or a refreshing shower.

How can I spend a long layover at Mumbai Airport?

Given that getting through immigration and out into the city may take you a couple hours, the best way to spend your layover at Mumbai airport is to visit a lounge or spa.

The Adani lounges are newly built and very comfortable. Please note that these lounges are for first and business class flyers. They do NOT take most programs like Priority Pass Select or Star Alliance Gold and, in fact, the staff can be quite rude when turning away people requesting access through travel programs.

There are other lounges that accept loyalty programs but they are not as luxurious. You can check out: Aviserv Lounge, Loyalty Lounge, Pranaam Lounge, or The American Express Lounge.

For some pampering to pass the time, head to the spa:

  • O2 Spa is in the domestic departures area of Terminal 2.
  • Heaven on Earth has locations in Terminal 1 and the international departures area of Terminal 2.

Does Mumbai have two airports?

Mumbai airport is named Chhatrapati Shivaji Airport with its code being BOM. It is one airport with 2 terminals that are a short drive away from each other.

Typically Terminal 2 is for international flights and Terminal 1 is for domestic flights. Although, a handful of domestic flights depart and land from Terminal 2 as well, so be sure to double check your terminal if you have a domestic flight.
