We went to Chennai to adopt a child from a local orphanage. The Hotel was a block away which made things very easy. We stayed a week and loved the staff and service. The complimentry Breakfast was wonderful as well as the lunch and dinner.

I stayed here for nearly two weeks in August, so the length of my stay should tell you something about the comfort and quality. I got a good night's sleep every night. Place was very clean. Not to say there weren't a few problems. I might have seen three roaches during my entire time there, but it's not because of... More

We got an economy room for one night at the Kings Hotel. The room was clean and everything worked - nothing fancy. No problem with noise. Location was good for us (close to train stations and sites of interest). We got a discount for paying when we checked in rather than when we checked out. The only real problem we... More

Helpful front desk, average rooms, clean enough. Breakfast buffet of typical South Indian food spoiled by staff who stand around but don't use any initiative. A cup of tea without milk was a real problem for them. Best thing about Kings is it's location in a quiet road in the Egmore area
