Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel offers spacious and well-equipped rooms, with the only downside being the rates could be discounted slightly. The service was a mixed bag, with slow responses except for one helpful staff member. The location is excellent for visiting relatives and shopping, accessible from the airport and close to key areas of Chennai. The dining experience was delightful, with a good variety of dishes. Overall, the hotel is recommended for its rooms and location, with some service improvements needed.
My stay at the hotel was really great! The rooms were spacious, clean, and comfortable, and the housekeeping staff were very helpful. The location was perfect for shopping and sightseeing, and the proximity to the railway station made it super convenient. The dining experience was delicious, with a large spread that felt like being in a five-star hotel, but there were some issues with overcharging by the front desk tour assistant. Overall, a wonderful experience at a good value for money.
The hotel is located right in the center of the city with a good ambiance and close to shopping areas. The rooms were clean, quiet, and of good quality, perfect for a family stay, although breakfast could be more diverse. The location is excellent for exploring South India, with Satthish providing valuable local tourist recommendations. While the dining experience needs improvement in terms of variety and quality, the hotel offers a range of amenities and facilities to ensure a comfortable stay.
