Located in close proximity to Apollo Hospital, on Wallace Garden Street in a quiet residential area is Hanu Reddy Residences.

There are a number of Hanu Reddy Residences in Chennai. My husband and I stayed at the one in Wallace Gardens for 4 nights in late February. We reserved our room for the night before our very early morning arrival. We let the hotel know our flight information and the time that we expected to arrive, and they made sure someone was on duty to check us in. (Press the bell next to the front door.) Our room (#5) was a large, comfortable, if a little tatty, front-facing room with a ceiling fan and a/c. The bed had a good, firm mattress. Good water pressure in the shower, however the bathroom was scruffy. Daily cleaning, with fresh towels, toilet paper, toiletries, and a large bottle of water. The staff were very kind and helpful. Breakfast was included in our reservation: A small buffet as well as freshly cooked eggs, dosas, poori, and so on. We had dinner at the hotel one night, and it was tasty and filling. The hotel has a large rooftop that could be developed into a pleasant space for guests.

Roshini Serviced Apartments features beauty services and air-conditioned accommodations in the center of Chennai, 1.8 miles from Spencer Plaza Mall.

Honestly i was little skeptical in the beginning because most of he other apartments, bathrooms did not meet our expectation, but Roshini service apartments was spotless. Bathroom was very clean and the hot water was available any time and Air conditioner was too good. Owner was very friendly because we arrived at the apartment at 4 am, and the owner was there to receive us. Room service was exceptional - breakfast was too good.I would strongly recommend this apartment to anyone

    Broad Lands was fantastic, clean, and had charming colonial architecture. Its location made visiting key attractions easy. A tip for future visitors: use the Metro from the airport. We found it much cheaper and more convenient on our return trip. I highly recommend this hostel for its cleanliness, charm, and convenience.

    Great hostel run by super friendly staff, the rooms and bathrooms are clean, the common area is perfect for chilling and socializing, and they serve homemade meals for a very good price. The location is good and it was easy to find with the staff's directions, lots of food options nearby, and it's right next to the Little Mount metro station. The only down side for me is that it was a bit pricey for my budget, but I really enjoyed my stay ;)

    This place is the best. The friendly staff, the access to the city center, and the perfect local feel make it a wonderful experience. The place is very clean, and you can use the kitchen to boil water and do the dishes. I had some personal trouble on the first day, but superhero Bobby showed up and solved it brilliantly. The place is so nice that I stayed an extra night. If I come to Chennai again, I'll definitely stay here! I'm so grateful to the staff at Hostel Gandhi.
