"To my shock, when I walked into the Hotel, with my Expedia booking, the Hotel staff told me that they do not accept any Online bookings as they had stopped honoring any online bookings about 3 months back. I then had to call Expedia for a full Refund and then take this hotel via in-person booking, Luckily Room was still available and I was able to check-in after about an hour of delay. Please contact this hotel directly for any booking. Thanks!"

Lovely hotel in the centre of Chennai. Staff very welcoming and hotel in excellent condition. Their are some refurbishments taking place but this does not affect the guest in any way. \rooms are very spacious and have everything you need with plenty of bottled water supplied. Bathroom is clean and showers excellent.
Food is either via a buffet or a la carte menu and both are excellent with a great choice all in all would thoroughly recommend

The experience of staying at the Leela Palace is unique. We stayed here for 8 nights.
Above a certain star rating, hotels in India serve as sanctuaries from the frenetic, turbo-driven, high octane energy outside their gates.
The Leela Palace understands that even the most intrepid, culturally voracious Europeans can only manage limited exposure to 'real Indian' life. The tranquil, gracious respite provided by this hotel (Leela Palace) warrants a 6 star rating.

I have stayed at this hotel on several occasions, albeit for brief overnight business stopovers at Chennai.
It is conveniently located near the IT Parks which I visit near Velacherry/ Taramani and not too far from the airport in a quiet area. However one must add that this is not near the actual city centre but at a convenient peripheral location.
Rooms are well appointed, spacious and comfortable, staff is well trained and courteous, there is a pool and fitness centre and several dining...

An potentially inconvenient but necessary overnight stay was turned into an unexpectedly enjoyable experience, all because of the most incredibly enthusiastic and responsive staff that I have ever come across. I was not sure how we would locate the shuttle from the airport, so I sent a text message before leaving Bangalore. When we we arrived in Chennai a couple of hours later, there was a chauffeur with a signboard, to whisk us to the hotel. He had our room key, so that check in was simple,...

The place was very clean and only a 10-15min taxi ride from the airport. The staff were very helpful and pleasant. This is a really good place to stop before catching a flight from Chennai airport
