"I only stayed in Chennai for 1 night as a business traveler so after reviewing many hotels in Chennai on the AGODA website i decided to stay at the Residency Towers after reading some of the reviews, i found the hotel to be quite convenient for the airport, only around 30mins drive, the hotel provided me with the airport transfer as i requested and the driver waited for me even though the flight was delayed, i found the hotel staff to be very kind and helpful, unfortunately i had to checkout very early and therefore missed the Indian breakfast buffet, but the front desk staff organized for a takeaway breakfast for me, during my stay there i was missing my luggage from the Emirates flight so was unable to use the swimming pool and fitness facilities but i did have a look at these and it looked very nice indeed, also there is some big department stores within walking distance from the hotel and also many restaurants and convenience stores all within walking distance, i would be very happy to stay at the Residency Towers for my future trips to Chennai"

"I and a friend from Singapore traveled to Chennai for a vacation, and the best thing we did was booking Clarion. It was value for money. The hotel was just a 5min walk from a mall and it might life much easier. We were able to a catch a movie at night and walk back to the hotel without any hassle. The staff were extremely nice and went out of the way to assist us whenever possible. The daily breakfast that we had booked was a bonus. The housekeeping service was done promptly and so was the laundry. I will surely recommend this place an go back to this hotel the next time i visit Chennai."

"Staying at GRT Chennai hotel was my first time. I always have not had great experiences with hotels regardless of how great or reputed they are, but this one. I absolutely loved everything about GRT Chennai. Food, staff, cleanliness, entertainment and other facilities. I was 100% relaxed at the hotel. Staff were very well-mannered and helpful. They don't hassle you or even bother coming after you for tips. And that's one of the best things about the hotel. I liked the gym facilities and also the spa. Will definitely stay there again next time. "

"Location is good. We stayed here for 4 Nights. The hotel is very near (walking distance) to famous restaurant like Amma Chettinadu Restaurant, Hotel Virudhunagar Chettinad, Murugan Idli, Pakwan Chennai and etc. The Pothys Boutique is also very near about 2 minutes walk. The best thing about this boutiques is that it provides free shuttle service To Pothys T Nagar. We enjoyed shopping at both branches. What I love most about Benzzpark Hotel is their hot water shower. My godness after a long tiring walk, you would enjoy satisfying hot shower. Food is meet requirement only. I have tasted better breakfast buffet in Chennai at similar rate "

"Not the cleanest hotel I have stayed in. However, the sheets were clean (extremely important!!), the location was fantastic for my particular needs. I found the staff very courteous and helpful. I am a very big fan of Indian Cuisine and found the food to my liking and standard. The building is quite dated and hasn't been maintained. However, for the price I paid per night, anyone would be very unrealistic if they expected any more than what is offered by this hotel. In the main YES I would stay here again! In fact I intend to stay again around the same time next year! "

"we were totally 6 adults and 2 children,booked 2 garden view rooms. Pros :- 1) Room - the room was very spacious and was good with the bath tub. 2) Morning break fast was good. 3) Staff's care for the Guests was very much appreciated. 4) Location - Very calm place to relax. Cons:- 1) House keeping - they should check the rooms before handing over to the Guests. There was problem in the Phone they provided. so we have to use the phone in other room for everything. In the evening the lights in the garden area was not working. Kids could nt enjoy the garden area in the evening. 2) Costs of the Food. its very much costly and we tried to order a cup of Rice and Dhaal for my 1yr kid, and the cost they said was Rs. 450/-. 3) They did not refill the water bottles in the next morning. and the room toiletries was not changed. place we can enjoy for a day and not more than that. NOT WORTH. "

"This is one of the oldest hotels in Chennai, and so we did not expect it to be well-maintained. We booked it mainly for its location, in the heart of the city and closeness to the beach. But we were pleasantly surprised at the cleanliness and the fairly modern rooms. Washrooms are very clean and have the facilities that most guests would require: hot water throughout the day, clean towels, shampoo, toothpaste etc. Housekeeping services are excellent. Staff, right from bell boys to reception and housekeeping is very helpful and cooperative. The complimentary buffet breakfast has a wide range including South Indian items and American. Overall, a comfortable and safe place to stay in. "

"I stayed at the Ramada Plaza, Chennai for 2 nights. I had a really good experience staying there. They ran out of the room type I had booked last minute, so they upgraded me to a premium room at no additional cost. As a solo woman traveller, I felt very safe at all times. The room was big, clean and comfortable. The staff are really courteous and great at service. I ordered room service a couple of times, the food though pricy is very good. The breakfast buffet was excellent, with a good spread. I'd definitely recommend this place to anyone travelling to Chennai."
