The best Chennai has to offer.
Pros:

I've been travelling to Chennai for the past 16 years and stayed in many of the hotels. My past 4 visits have been back to my "home away from home". The hotel may be a dated BUT........ What really matters to me they offer in spades. The hospitality is 10/10. The GM Kastau Sur, personally welcomes each and every guest with presidential flare. His team, especially Mr Ali Akbar and Nelson who serves guest and manages the front desk become good friends in the space of a week. Nothing was to much trouble. They hotel staff went out of their way to celebrate my birthday, which happened to fall in the week of my visit with gifts and cake. Not sure if president has been set as a result of my review Ali hahahahaha. The Hotel is well appointed with a triple volume reception area extremely welcoming and conducive for meeting new friends and enjoying an afternoon drink. Pool area is a 10/10, spa a 10/10, I recommend Anusha she's a skilled therapist and as strong as a Russian :-) , albeit she's not Russian.

The breakfast buffet to me is impossible to beat and of the best I've had in all the years I've visited India. Airport location is 10/10, you never have to fear missing your flight. Le Royal Meridian Chennai has a customer for life in me and in fact all the friends who've traveled with me over the years. Hopefully KS and Ali and Nelson along with all the other staff get to read this review because its with a grateful heart I want to say thank you. Thank you for your hospitality, your humility, the excellence with which you serve your guests. It''s bee said that people won't always remember what you said or what you did. They will however remember how you made them feel which is most important. You all made us feel like royalty. God richly bless you all.

Your friend,
Andre Wilmans

The staff is good but the systems are poor. For eg struggling with phone calls and delays not expected in five star serv
Pros:

Location and tradition of a well known place.

Cons:

It appears to be struggling to maintain its five star status. I would not be surprised if they lose it any time now. All requirements for five star are falling apart.

Poor or too much delay response
Pros:

Almost happy at reception

Cons:

No response or poor response on calling operator number '0' as was given during check-in. Substandard behaviour (in fact waiter/service girl got angry with me when dal tarka was given in place of dal-fry in my order placed) at restaurant where 'Thali ' options available

Positive First Impression Staying at Le Royal Meridien Chennai, India for first time.
Pros:

I had the pleasure of staying at Le Royal Méridien Chennai during my business trip to Chennai, India, in July 2026, and I would like to recognize the excellent service provided by Mr. Deepak from the Housekeeping team.

Mr. Deepak did an outstanding job keeping my room spotless, tidy, and comfortable throughout my stay. Every day, I returned to a perfectly cleaned and well-organized room, which made a real difference after long business days. His attention to detail, professionalism, and dedication to maintaining a welcoming environment were truly exceptional.

Thank you, Mr. Deepak, for your hard work and commitment to providing such outstanding service. You made my stay much more enjoyable, and I sincerely appreciate your efforts.
