"A Pleasant and Hassle-Free Stay
I recently spent over 10 nights at Woodlands Inn, Chennai, and had a smooth, comfortable stay throughout. Although the hotel was fully booked, the staff remained exceptionally courteous, prompt, and attentive to every need. Even the housekeeping and support staff were consistently helpful, respectful, and never once showed signs of complaint — a real credit to the hotel's service standards. The rooms are compact but thoughtfully designed, clean, and fully functional — I faced no issues with amenities, bathrooms, or plug points. Special thanks to Mr. Shashikant and Mr. Mohammed, who provided seamless support from the time of booking to check-out. Their professionalism truly stood out. Overall, a well-run hotel offering great service. Highly recommended.
