It was great to stay at a historic landmark hotel that is maintained to the highest standards. The staff is exceptionally efficient, courteous and helpful. The breakfast and lunch options were simply outstanding. Being centrally located right on mount road it was easy to get around to other places in the city. Highly recommend staying at this wonderful hotel and enjoy your Chennai trip.
