Reviews and Ratings
I felt like a VIP at this hotel with its marbled lobby, fantastic food, and amazing ambience. The guest room was large, luxurious, and made me feel truly special. However, the main road just outside caused a bit of noise, which was a downside.
The 2 bedroom apartment is tastefully designed with outstanding modern features and iPad facilities, boasting a very comfortable large king-size bed. The rooms are large, well-appointed, and huge, offering a luxurious stay. The hotel excels in room comfort and design, though the dining experience could be improved with more breakfast options.
I had a fantastic stay at the hotel. The rooms were always clean and well-equipped, and the service was top-notch. Though the location had some room for improvement, the dining experience was delightful overall.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were really nice and a great value for money, but there could be slight improvements in what they offer. The service was exceptional, with caring and kind staff who went above and beyond to assist us. The location was convenient, although the noise from the main road was a downside. The dining experience was wonderful with hospitable staff, but there were some drawbacks. Overall, a good hotel with room for enhancement.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and clean, perfect for my two-day meetings. The location was great, surrounded by many restaurants and near to various attractions. The housekeeping, especially Reena, did a fantastic job keeping everything spotless. The only downside was not having enough coffee sachets in the room.
The rooms at the hotel are so compact and cozy with everything you need. They had been decorated with balloons and a kind note, along with flowers from Paradip Deepak in housekeeping. The rooms are very clean and spacious, making for a comfortable stay. The service provided by the staff, including Nathan, Habeeb, Vaishnavi, and Kaalathi, is warm and welcoming. However, the banquets and peshawari food can be disappointing. The hotel is equipped with live stations making traditional South Indian food, and my daily breakfast consisted of a plain crispy dosa and a cup of South Indian filtered coffee. The hotel's location is super convenient to major tourist attractions, but the traffic noise from the main road outside ITC Grand Chola can be bothersome. The dining experience offers a huge variety of South and North Indian, Continental, Chinese, and Pan Asian delicacies. The facilities provided are elaborate and the hospitable staff enhance the dining experience. The entire experience was great, but the traffic noise was a bit of a downside.
My stay at the hotel in Chennai was truly exceptional. The rooms were excellent, meeting the high standards I expected from a hotel of this caliber. The service, although a bit reluctant initially, proved to be attentive and available throughout my stay. The location was superb, making up for any minor shortcomings. The dining experience was delightful, offering a variety of delicious options. Overall, a great choice for my work assignment in Chennai.
The hotel offers a quiet and clean stay with spacious rooms stocked with a variety of snacks and drinks, but the location may not be ideal for exploring central Chennai. The service stands out for following strict safety measures but may come off as rude. The dining experience impresses with a diverse array of delicious dishes, while the facilities cater to various needs.
