Pathetic property at this rate Room size was like a cellar, roofs and walls were all stained. TV was hanging in an oblique direction. Lights were not working, electricity repair guy came after complain. Breakfast and dinner was also very very average.

My stay at GINGER IITM RP-TARAMANI
The stay was good, comfortable, homely under quite friendly atmosphere. It's more of an informal type. I loved it. The ambience was good. Though the girls at Reception were under training, Nikhil was good, intelligent and very cooperative. Good material for you.

Fridge did not work. Power went off but they could not restore. They gave me another room, which has broken tiles and two twin beds. Inconvenient and poor standards for the cost

Better upkeep required
The rooms was comfortable but the phone did not work in the room. The TV too wasn't working and i got the technician to come in and fix it. Housekeeping needs to do a thorough check to ensure gadgets are working in the room to avoid inconvenience to the customer.

Basically the hotel is very near to IIT Madras.
The stay at the Hotel was very pleasing. But only one problem I faced was regarding room service. When Buffet time is going on the room service is not given. I will suggest that parallelly the room service should be on. Recently I faced the same. I wanted snack to have but the room service refused to give accept coffee. Rest every thing was fine.

Great staff, 5 star breakfast/supper buffet
Wonderful, cheerful, satisfying, comfortable, happy are all words to describe my stay at the hotel. The staff went out of their way to insure my comfort and satisfaction. The food served at both the breakfast and supper buffet was 5 star, the best of south Indian cuisine. The wait staff at the buffet were also 5 star, constantly observing and answering your need before it was voiced. The front desk personnel were always friendly and smiling even though they and I could not communicate properly at times. The room was comfortable, cool and had a wonderful view of the city. Housekeeping was on a daily basis and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful at every turn, trying their best to make me happy and comfortable. All things considered, I would not hesitate to stay at the Ginger Hotel at Tidel Park again. My 24 days there were filled with happiness and satisfaction.

Small. Bad room service
The whole hotel is just one floor of the research park. Power kept going off and the wi-fi was flaky at best. Stay tried their best to help but there experience was not good especially considering there price. The room was small. Window was tiny and the room service was OK at best. The towels were not soft and they gave just one towel?!

Hi Given the room rates. The hotel is a decent return for your money just for the location. It's proximity to ramanujan IT city is the big plus. The room and facilities are on par for a budget hotel. But definitely clean. The rooms are on the top floor so the lift takes a long time. The staff are friendly. Overall I rate as a 3.5 but only for biz travellers

Not worth the money...
1. Location: Out skirts. Only good for people who have some work in nearby locations. Else it's highly avoidable. Better go for Ginger Vadapalani. 2. Breakfast: No complimentary breakfast!! I paid 3k for a room and you can't offer complimentary breakfast!! You need to learn from the competition. 3. Rooms: Too small and not comfy. Next to my room there was a storeroom!! No view at all.. It was such a big big let down. Good thing was that I only went there back in night to sleep. 4. Food: No lunch service. You have to call nearby hotels for that. Really!! 5. Hotel surroundings: It is located on 11th floor of a big building and has 84 rooms. Too dense for a hotel and there is only 1 lift available. Only 1 lift!! 6. Bathrooms: Ok. Ok. No bathing kit. No dental kit. 7. Power cuts. Meter tripping. All happened. 8. Overall rating: 1/5 My last stay there for sure.

Hotel was nice, the staff was excellent and the service was great, BUT there was heavy construction going in right next to the hotel building. The construction noise was annoying till late night and early morning.

Budget Unentertaining Hotel
Ginger Hotel is very ordinary hotel and does not justify the cost. Room Stay might give u a feel that at $30-35 cost, you would get all amenities like air-conditioning, television, good bed but unfortunately things are not maintained & even services are not available. Facilities are there but on self serve basis

This hotel is only meant for people who have any business in IT park. For all others it is a very inconvenient location . No access to the hotel which is located on the 11 th floor(lift did not work). no shops nearby, no room service (except dinner). None of this is mentined on the website

Decent rooms, Sub-par service
On the plus side, the hotel is decently situated at the start of the IT highway, rooms are comfortable, the shower stall is pretty good and the staff is polite, albeit ineffective. On the flip side, cell phone reception is terrible (which means the WiFi password that you need, never arrives via SMS during your stay), the toilet flush quit on the last night and there was no one to fix it, the toilets itself use recycled water that looks pretty gross and finally unless you have your own transportation expect to be fleeced by Chennai autorickshaw drivers on a daily basis getting to and from the hotel.

Thumbs down
This hotel is located in a building not even a free standing hotel but rather a floor within a very scary building. I was terrified walking in and I couldn't even find the front door because there were no lights on. It is not close to anything, 4 miles from Chennai and its not even a safe walk to any stores or local spots. Its surrounded by garbage and there is nothing to do there but be in your room and it was expensive in comparison to other places with much, much more to offer. Thumbs down!

Pretty close to the airport
Good service, however the check in time was 12:00 which i wasnt aware.Reached the Hotel at 10:00 AM & had to spend 2 hours in the Hotel restuarant before i could check in at 12:00 Noon. The reception staff ensure i could check in at 11:15 Am which i believe in a good thing as they went out of their way to help me.I am satisfied overall though.

Beware of hiden costs and on the spot extra charge
The room might start to smell like a toilet after the AC's turned on for a while. The staff never passed on the password for wi-fi service through out the stay. Depended on the shift, some staff were courteous and some were rude and would try to charge you a higher fee or extra for various reasons such as tax and then asked you to sign a declaration so they could not be blamed for it later. When you went to their restaurant down stair, count the changes!

Rooms were very small, most of them don't have any windows. The air system makes horrible noise at night, couldn't sleep at night due to the noise. Will not stay here again, though staff were well behaved and helpful. No room service available.

impossible to find
I arrived late at night and there was no signage for the hotel, and it took the taxi driver almost an hour to finally find the location. There was no security guard on duty and the surrounding area was pitch black and deserted - it was one of the most frightening experiences in travel I have ever had. To make matters worse, I requested an early am taxi to airport, was told there was not problem, and in morning was told that was too early for a cab. I ended up missing my flight. I would never recommend unless you are there to visit/work at HITEC business area.

Isolated location
Hotel is located in an isolated place, food only from a food court. No room service. Limited staff, have to wait 2 hours to get pillow covers. Dirty laundry to be taken to reception!!, to be collected also. The staff needs training for smile, they are always nervous . Week end rates are low, the service is very poor. If you do not have transport , avoid this hotel.

We had a good night there.
It´s a typical business hotel. The staff is friendly and helpfull, the service is good and a foodcorner is in the entrance of the building. The neighbourhood is still a big construction site, but you don´t hear that. In a few years, it will be in the middle of a business park in a green park in the center of Chennai.

IITマドラス近くのビジネスホテル
立地はIITマドラスのリサーチパーク内にあり，１１階がホテルになる．周辺には特にレストランやコンビニなどの施設は無いため，リキシャなどを使わないと食事をするのも難しい．ホテル内のルームサービスでの食事は可能だが，ホテルのそれは夜19:30以降でないと受け付けてくれない．チェンナイのレストランの多くは19:30以降にオープンするために，それと同様である．部屋にはエアコンと大型のファンがベッド上に設置されている．ファンの音は割と大きいが，停止させると蚊に刺される可能性があるので回しっぱなしにするのがよい．また，このファンがあるために洗濯物を部屋干しする際には，シャツなども一晩で乾きます．無料のWifiはフロントに申し出ると使えるが，モバイル限定のようである．石鹸やシャンプーなどはついていないが，バスタオルとフェイスタオルは毎日交換があり，トイレは水洗，ボトルウォーターの支給も毎日500mLが2本ついていた．朝食は一階の食堂脇でとることができる．総合的には価格の割に不自由のない良いホテルであった．ただし，IITマドラスに用事のある人以外はメリットが少ないかもしれない．IITマドラスには隣接する資材搬入用の入口から入ることができる．

タタ・グループのホテル
インド各地にあるジンジャー・ホテルはタタ・グループが運営しており、 早く予約すればそれだけ安く泊まれるホテルです。 今回チェンナイ（旧マドラス）で泊まりましたが、飛行機の乗り継ぎ目的で 利用しただけです。部屋にいたのは４時間くらいで、シャワーを利用し、３時間くらい 仮眠しただけですが利用目的がはっきりして、あまりホテルに色々な条件を求めないので あれば、このホテルはお薦めできます。
