Even though its a old property, the rooms and public area doesn't reveal it. You will feel the hotel is newly renovated. Ask for a room on high floor. Pretty decent sized rooms good enough for a family. Excellent food and service. l will definitely stay at the residency during my next visit to Chennai.

Nice rooms (as described), excellent high tech toilet, and room facilities, great staff, helpful and responsive. Comfortable stay. The only thing was that the bathrooms are not specially elderly friendly - it would be nice to have a few support handles in the toilet and bathroom for older people.

I loved the hospitality. The staff at reception, dining and housekeeping were all so kind and humble. Something can be done about the breakfast buffet though. Only the dessert seemed to change every day. Other than that, I’d definitely stay here again!

The room didn’t match the price I.e., it wasn’t quite good. And also, there was a construction work going on right next to me. I wasn’t even notified of it when I was checking in neither they changed to a different level. The stay during the day was unpleasant. But the staff was responsive and friendly.
