Good hotel. Food is average. Staff is courteous. Internet does not work and they have no response for that.. Location is bad. I would again stay there. The rooms have a good view. The Hotel has an old fashioned lift which looks good. Alcohol is expensive and there is no shop also nearby.

Really a wonderful hotel to stay in- friendly staff always at hand to help with a ready smile. We have stayed here since 2004 whenever we make our annual pilgrimage to India for Mahashivarathri.Wonderful breakfast spread. Best iddly and vada with scrumptious chutneys.

Rooms was average in size but clean and well equiped. Room was a bit cold but I figured out how to use the aircon. Sleep was quality and linen was good. The... More

This hotel was chosen by our travel agent and my wife and I stayed here for 5 days and found this hotel be excellent. This hotel has a Victorian finish to the interior. I must admit it is tucked away from the big mall of Chennai. The staff was very friendly and they even included us in their firework display.... More

Disclaimer: I couldn't say too much about this stay because we were very kindly put up in it by a friend's family for a wedding. If I was paying, I would have been MUCH more vocal. The WORST thing that happened- we would lose hot water a few times. But not only that, the water coming out was BROWN and... More

We (myself, husband and his parents) stayed for one night only in the Heritage Double Room, and to be frank I've had better hotels at the same price. Here's why: (1) Rooms: AC Temperature was set at 18 Degrees, which could not be adjusted. Either switch off the AC or bear the cold. We slept like eskimos in an igloo... More

We stayed recently in Hotel Ambica for two days. Reception staff was quite friendly and hotel look was excellent and we really got feeling of coming to 5 star hotel although hotel is 3 star. After checking into heritage room, we relaxed ourself and after some time we started getting stingy smell in room. I believe this was coming from... More

The complimentries were also fine. There is a Metro rail construction on the road and sometimes the traffic is awful, but once you... More
