Very nice hotel. Friendly staff, nice amenities. One of the best. However, no beach access. So, it is not a beach front property. Don’t be fooled by pictures.

The room had quite a bit of dust and some places had mould. The breakfast had a wide choice, but the taste was not as great. Otherwise really had a lovely stay and the staff were excellent in their service. The issues we had were instantly resolved. The staff there almost became like a family.

The staff went above and beyond and took care of our family. Leela's customer service is the reason that we prefer this hotel amongst all other 5-star hotels. Our Chennai experience meant that when we went to Udaipur 2 weeks later, we booked Leela Udaipur too, and as always has an amazing experience. Thank you Leela Chennai team for a great stay!!

The breakfast choices were off the scale! What ever you wanted they had it! Amazing choices from the basics to local specialties! Amazing. The gym was pretty well equipment if not a little cramped where the workout machines had been placed. Very good for a Hotel gym TBH and never busy when I went (0630-0800)
