arrived at Chennai the night before and had to fly out to Rajahmundry the very next morning. Radisson Hotel in Chennai was just less than 5 minutes drive from the Chennai airport, which was very convenient for me. The hotel pickup was swift, and we were at the hote front desk before we even knew it. Check-in was swift...for USD 145 a night, we were given a Club room, which was quite nice really. The room had a touch of yester years, with colonial style furniture. It also comes with a LCD tv, with more than enough local and international channels to choose from. Wi-fi internet was also provided for free, which I think was fantastic! We were also able to use th Radisson Club Lounge....nothing to shout about, but to the least there are snacks and some beverages for our consumption. Breakfast at the coffee house was very good, with both international and Indian cuisine. One thing we found wasn't as good was the in-room dining. Service was slow, very slow indeed....and the quality of food, was far from desirable. All-in-all, Radisson Chennai is an above average business hotel, clean and good service. Would recommend to stay there again, if I'm back for business.

The hotel is close to the Airport and this is a positive. It isn't however near much else without a bit of travel. No fear the rickshaws will help there. My stay was quite pleasant and the staff were exceptional in all of the -normal- services. They did OVER AND ABOVE when I showed signs of an ailment and I needed to get medical consult. They had a doctor in my room within the hour and then they went out twice in the same day to get my needed medications. If you are staying in Chennai then this is a good value and great service. The room was well kept and comfortable. The 24 hour resturaunt was very good - I don't recomment the kabob resturaunt as the staff seemed too rushed and this was a glaring exception to the balance of the hotel staff.

Quality of the service is very OK and also the rooms (I used sevaral time the suites). But, one real negative point is the fact that thse high strandard suites are located just near the elevators and the hotel staff was making noise in this area all night long !!! Another very bad point is taht any mouvment you do in the hotel, going out or in, asking friends to come to have a drink, etc. You feel like there is a spy behind you! It is a very bad sensation to feel being observed all the time! This is not what you expect when you are staying in an hotel of this category!
