Outstanding hotel. Highly recommend. The staff go above and beyond to make your stay pleasant. The rooms are super clean and kept tidy kudos to the house keeping staff. And breakfast buffet is something to worth for in morning
Check in was slow and confused, partly because we were a little early. Room seemed to have lack of sound proofing and outside noises carried in easily.
Room was clean, breakfast was varied. Checkout was painless, thanks Senthil.
Staff all very friendly and welcoming. Room was nice, clean. The restaurant had quite a few choices which were very nice also same food available on room service.
Just a perfect place. Nice staff, good food and amenities. Being a Taj property, it was perfect. Just the location was inconvenient being metro works ongoing which causes extra traffic. Other than that, all good.
A really nice property in Chennai but we had a broken seal on our window so were kept up all night by the street noise.

Disliked: Staff & service
We left behind a pair of shoes in the hotel lobby near the valet station, when the security was helping us load the car. When we called them to get it back, they didn’t acknowledge well and we failed to get back the shoes.
Very good hotel. Friendly and helpful staff. Expedia/Hotels.com messed up by booking me on a Free Breakfast room, but had sent the info wrong to the hotel. When I landed after a frustrating flight and the reception told me I don't have breakfast included, I was super frustrated and even a little stern in my response to the staff. But, they helped me fix the same. Most of my stay was seamless. Breakfast and room service including food and housekeeping was excellent. Was worth the price.
