I love everything about this hotel. This will be the third consecutive visit to Chennai during which I've stayed at the Raintree on St Mary's Road. I have no plans to stay anywhere else in the future. The reception staff is amazing-- all of them, but I want to escpecially cite Ritu and Uma. Their care and gentility is something that makes the place so special. In housekeeping I want to say that Karthick was stellar.

Quite an Amazing service in this Hotel
Hotel breakfast was a good spread, with some new dishes changing daily over the course of my 6 days there. Restaurant staff were very helpful. Rooms were nice and spacious. Check-in/out process was smooth. Concierge and reception staff were very helpful. Location wise was quite ok for us cos we took Uber everywhere. Mostly everywhere we went was within 30mins including T nagar, airport, Pondy bazaar. There was this particular counter staff by the name of Ritu who went out of her way to help arrange some logistics for us even though she didn’t need to. Commendable indeed.

The staff at the St. Mary's location are outstanding. I could not have asked for a better experience. All guests are treated like VIPs. The facilities are well designed and the elegant rooftop terrace allows you to see the city at night. Also, the food here is excellent; the buffet breakfast exceeded my expectations. I would definitely stay at this hotel again.

Suite Experience....very sweet!
Really excellent stay in suite room. They can add beds for extra guests in living area. Also very comfortable sofa and can get extra duvet. Main bedroom in suite really super : so comfortable and quiet with plenty of space and super size bed. Great bathroom and good linen but no bath. I’ve stayed in Raintree many times in standard deluxe rooms but this suite was exceptional and not too expensive compared to other normal rooms in 5stars hotels in Chennai, but way better. I’ve stayed in most of Chennai 5 stars in last 15 years. Breakfast and dinner buffet also way better than most of 5 star hotels. So delicious and great staff. Only two downsides. This hotel used to have a nice roof top pool with Buddha statue at one end and was very peaceful. Now they have made the pool smaller and removed the Buddha to add more restaurant tables. Very sad. Now like kids paddling pool. Swimming not possible now. Also management need to check all bookings clearly as tried to deny me dinner buffet and guests happy hour drinks I had already paid for. No apology from manager afterwards, or after hotel fire alarm went off in early hours! Did give a few hours late checkout after requesting it. Much appreciated as room so comfortable! With massive TV. Like own cinema. Overall highly recommend suite if a few guests. Make sure to get dinner and happy hours package for all guests on Hotels.com. And bring copy of booking. Very good value. Highly recommended overall.

This is my third stay at the hotel in about as many years. It is a clean, no-nonsense property. The breakfast and the food in general are excellent. Service is very good too. It is difficult to find anything at all to complain about. It is pricier than the hotels in its class, but I come back because I am able to count on their quality.

We had been allotted complimentary breakfast. The hotel did not mention this correctly when we checked in. They told us we could pay and order the breakfast at the restaurant instead. And we found this error only on the last day. We could have had a good complimentary breakfast every day but we were denied.

Great mattress! The staff very well trained, kind, and helpful. Buffet breakfast was so varied that we didn’t get bored after 25 nights! A la carte lunch wasn’t that great for a vegetarian. The humongous towels were hard to handle…seems ridiculous to have beach towel-size for hotel. plenty of bottled water were supplied. very good management team as well. Very happy to have stayed here and will do so again if we return to Chennai.

I was here for 5 nights and enjoyed the stay immensely. Staff were very helpful when I had an issue with my door; an engineer was called immediately and the problem fixed. Very safe area and an nice atmosphere in the hotel. The hotel is spotless, and staff are friendly and welcoming. I used the gym everyday where fresh towels and water were provided. I think my favourite thing of all was the breakfast buffet, full of healthy options and many dishes to choose from. I didn't want to leave!
