Excellent service all around! I really felt the staff went above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay. Facilities were mainly excellent, though there were some minor issues with the entertainment / TV facilities not functioning well. Plenty of options for dining are available and though I did not use the spa facilities I was impressed by what I saw when I visited the area. Shreya, our guest executive was very pleasant and helpful and we were even treated to complimentary cocktails and snacks on the evening of our arrival. All in an all an excellent experience and I would have no trouble staying there again.

Worst stay at Westin Velachery
This property is in the center of the city with Shopping mall next to it. Spacious room, good Wi-Fi. In room dining has limited menu but they have a very wide breakfast spread which is amazing and delicious as well. Met Chef Prakash Patil and team, he provided some out of the menu dishes which were simply awesome. Thanks Mr. Patil and team includes Pushpa and Manjiri from service team for quick support in resturant. They have customer centric approach as CRM Neethu asked several time about the stay. Thanks to Entire team.

Great hotel and fantastic staff
A very nice hotel, incredibly clean and modern. My room was fantastic, the bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was huge. There is a great selection of restaurants within the hotel. The facilities are great, the gym is good for a hotel and the pool is stunning. We had a bit of a mix up with our airport pick up but the staff were very apologetic and more than made up for it with incredible service and free access to the Westin Lounge. I was very impressed by the staff, the cleaners leave lovely notes and make animal sculptures out of the towels. I was particulary impressed with Rumina who was excellent throughout our stay. I will definitely be staying here during my future trips to Chennai.

I stayed at the Westin Chennai twice during Aug 2022. The Customer Service here is excellent. Something that other Marriott hotels can learn from. Attentive, helpful without being overbearing. Received an email even before I checked in asking if they could do anything to welcome me at the airport or do anything else to make check in easy. Checking in was quick, easy with a separate area for Elite members. Jenny did a great job with check in and with check out. Food is very good at the hotel and since i stayed several days, I can vouch for the prompt attentiveness of the people at the main restaurant. Many names ... Bala, Amit, Pushpa, Rajesh, Kamlesh, Hrishikesh stood out as excellent. Variety of food is nice and the Sunday brunch is very good. The rooms are clean, quite and at excellent international standards. The concierge is very helpful as are the staff. Pool was closed for renovation, however the hotel had prominently mentioned it several times, and made alternate arrangements which I did not use. A beautiful Bon Voyage pastry put icing on the cake of two very nice stays. Rating this Westin highly. Recommended.

Pathetic experience at Westin Velachery
To start with my review I would like to mention that this is the worst 5 star property I have seen. We ordered food from in room dining (20 mins) and also from Zomato (49 mins), due to rain Zomato could not deliver the food in time and they delivered in 60 mins but in room dining food we received after approx 1 hr 10 mins. Whatever we ordered from kitchen was not worth ordering from 5 start kitchen. Next day after shower there was water leakage from shower area due to which bathroom floor was slippery and I might have accidentally fallen but I could save myself. When raised complaint on this they said they will send engineering person who came after 4-5 hrs. And in the end nothing happened. They said they will either change my room or will keep extra mats. Internet connection was so poor that couldn’t establish the connection. So second day afternoon they kept the separate dongle in the room. When food complaint was raised to head chef Biju, I am thankful to him that he served a very nice delicious food to us and we are happy to appreciate him for this. Thanks Mr. Biju. I stayed at room no 9001 which was executive room and paid approx 12K for this and it was on top floor. During night on terrace hotel installed chillers which started making pathetic sound and vibration due to which I could not sleep for 3 nights. Overall this priority is not even worth of giving 2 stars. Hotels don’t have enough cars for airport drop, travel desk is worst.

Pros * Breakfast spread was amazing * Decent gym and pool * Friendly staff and service was amazing * Concierge was very helpful - stored our bags when we traveled for few days and arranged RTPCR test at the hotel for departure formalities Things to improve * No privacy curtain/blinds between bath and bedroom (has sliding glass doors that one can see through). They did install one upon request. Westin in Gurgaon has power blinds * Room service was so-so but the restaurant food was good

All the staffs - Front office, Room service, Restaurants, Swimming pool - were courteous and friendly,. Had excellent lunch and dinner meals at MKC restaurant. Super tasty food. Probably the best I have had in a while. Big Thanks to Chef Yuga and other staff at MKC who took care of us and served such a wonderful food. We certainly would stay again at Westin.

Won’t Recommend
Stayed from 30thNov- 2nd Dec. It had a grand entrance which we expect in a 5 star property. The corridor leading to the rooms smelled really bad due to the carpets. The first room provided had very bad smell. Mr. Jagdish helped us to get another room. The process though took a while. The other room had a bad smell coming from the AC vent and it even had moulds. A photo was taken by their staff and getting another room was again taking too long. It was close to 11:30pm so I opted to stay in the same room for a night. Next day, they changed the room by themselves. The room was good but then starts the problems. The water in the bathtub was full of dirt. It was brown in color. We were shocked and complained which was handled by the service team but then you don’t expect this is a 5 star property. Then the water in the shower cubicle had water logging. Overall I was very disappointed. Mr. Fernandes offered us free dinner but since we were there to attend a marriage, it made no sense so requested lounge access at Bangalore which he wanted to get back after checking but till now did not get any call. So it’s pretty disappointing “Won’t go back”
