    Had a lovely Easter stay. The breakfast was delicious and had a good variety to choose from. The staff was friendly and helpful when it came to the nearby attractions and restaurants. The location was perfect, as it was walking distance to the beach and shopping area.

    The slow Wi-Fi connection, which made it difficult for me to catch up on my work emails while on vacation.

    Located in a convenient area opposite the train station, this hotel is great for those traveling around the city. You can easily go to other places like the US consulate, and the Egmore railway station from here. the breakfast is passable, and the rooms are fine. the housekeeper is quick to resolve any issues, and the staff is polite.

    Reportedly, the hotel's WiFi can be bad, and the receptionist wasn't helpful in addressing problems.

The hotel facilities were great and we especially loved the breakfast. The staff were very welcoming and always had a smile on their face.
