Mumbai is definitely an exciting city - but as a female on my own, I didn't feel very safe going out in the evening.

The train near the station is not safe for women at night. If you have to take the train and are foreign you might be most comfortable in first class where it is not crowded.
I recommend going to a restaurant near Indian Gateway called Leopold's because it serves good food with large portions... western and eastern...

One word of caution though, if you want to do shopping at the roadside stalls, beware. Once you start to flash your notes to buy items, you will be swarmed in by beggars, shoe shiners, pedlars offering their wares. They will keep on tagging you and I had to hurry up to my hotel very quickly for a little bit of privacy. Learning my lesson, the next time around I only visited the proper shops. And for India souvenir items, please visit the government sponsored emporium CCIE just opposite the street from Suba Palace. Thay have items at reasonable prices, and the most important part was that you can browse through with privacy.

We found the taxi drivers to be very untruthful, and basically con-artists waiting to prey on innocent tourists. This hotel was ridiculous for the price paid and the service received, it should be avoided at all costs.
