Top Central Chennai Hotel Reviews

Grand Chennai by GRT Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"Very friendly staff and great customer service. Wonderful central location for our trip."

THE MADRAS GRAND

10/10 Excellent

"I had a pleasant stay at The Madras Grand. The staff were very helpful and welcoming, which made the experience smooth and comfortable. The property is clean and well-maintained, which I really appreciated. The breakfast was decent—nothing exceptional, but satisfactory. Overall, it’s an affordable option that offers good value for money. I would consider staying here again."

The Kings Park Grand

2/10 Terrible

"The only advantage is this is very close to US Consulate and that’s it. No where close to what is shown in pictures on Expedia!!! Room was smelly, lift in not so good shape old one with plywood coming out from places. No one to tell where the room is and on floor no room indicators. Breakfast was ok but just 3 items. Dinner… I got something which I never ordered and no replacement nothing. I asked for coke or juice or anything available but nothing was. After check out when I went to restobar whatever I asked from the menu was not available Overall one can surely give this property a skip."
