That was the 2nd time I ended up in this place with my family. We opted for a buffet dinner over ala carte menu. There were few guys staying over some picnic and the hotel had arranged some low cost dinner. They never uttered a word on this plan and we ended up choosing that menu which was nearly in... More

Central Chennai hotel with good access to all parts of city. Rooms are clean, service decent and food is good. Only issue is with Wifi which works sporadically in my room so if you have your own internet access then this is a good hotel to be at.

Great property and a must do for the people who are working much too hard during the week; Located with in the city and on near beach, it has everything that one expects from the Shelter group - great service, wonderful food and a willingness to meet your every requirement.

Everything you can think of, is wrong here. And to top it all, you can request as many times, nothing changes. 1. Extremely noisy road right outside. A famous temple across the street doesnt help with noise level. very difficult to sleep. 2. Wi fi, for first two days not working. Next day, they give you some pre paid code... More

Good location, its just one street away from the main street, very close to one of the main attractions of Chennai, the Kapaleeshwarar Temple. Hence there are many shops and eateries that are near the temple. This was very convenient. Had the deluxe room, which was smaller than expected. Cable TV wiring was not connected, and although maintenance came up... More

Good maintenance, Lobby looks pretty ok and wide spacious, but needs to improve a lot on service concerned. With friends, had few unforgettable moments.
