For past 20 years, this used to be our family's favourite restaurant. All our dine outs would invariably see us landing up here. Restaurant ambience is grat with good lighting ,very courteous and well trained staff in whole arrangement of menu to serving food,etc. The place has soothing music and is quite calm and dimly lighted .The food portions are adequate and they offer a lot of options of sauces for each dish.If you're craving for some quality Chinese food , then Chin Chin will surely fit the bill Huge credit goes to Mr.Murali who was in-charge with the customer for taking food orders to handling customer complaints. He was patient to take suggestions from us for improving the quality of hotel service to our maximum expectation. Highly recommended to everyone.

Good, clean rooms and the food is something I have always liked of The Residency. There is one thing you need to improve is on the check-in time. You may want to reduce it a bit. Otherwise everything was smooth including the room service. And it's friendly on your budget too with the facilities and services that one experiences. Would definitely recommend it to the travellers.
