5 stars for Mumbai spirit
Trident at Nariman Point and the Taj Mahal Hotel’s Tower wing at Apollo Bunder here resumed partial services on Sunday, but with markedly different approaches.
While the Trident management seemed keen to stress a feeling of normalcy by welcoming any guests who wished to visit the site of the 26/11 attacks, the Taj’s “inauguration” was a high-profile do for select invitees only.
The renovated lobby of the Trident was buzzing with activity as guests were let in on Sunday morning. The now-routine baggage and body check was in place with added security officials present as well.
The hotel held a special multi-faith prayer meeting for staff and guests in the afternoon. Maharashtra chief minister Ashok Chavan and deputy chief minister Chhagan Bhujbal also attended this meeting.
