Stayed couple of days on vacation. Located centrally, easy access to shopping centers. Staff very helpful and well informed. Rooms were comfortable, service was good on the whole. Overall the experience was good and satisfactory.

First of all the receptionist kept on sneezing and without even cleaning his hands, he kept on touching my ID. Later whole hotel smells of cigarette, and the toilet in the reception is so pathetic that I cannot explain. The staff behaviour was though polite but the cannot resolve a single issue if you ever ask them for anything. Right... More

I reluctantly stayed here because I arrived very late from the airport with a pre-booking. The room seemed used minutes before and unsanitary. There are some very scattered staff at the reception, but they are kind and try to be helpful. Nevertheless - for the price, definitely not recommended.

I was in a short office trip. I reached in late night but I got warm welcome from the manager. Though restaurant was closed but they managed to provide me food. It was really good experience during the stay.

Visited this hotel on a business trip to Chennai in December 2010. The room we were given was spacious with a coffee table and sofa chair. Beds were comfortable and the room had an old fashioned TV whose remote was not functioning. The room service was not very helpful in attending to the remote. Neither did they get us a... More

The Chariot is located in the heart of Chennai. Shopping centres like Spencer Plaza, Express Avenue and Ampa Skywalk are within 5km. Local bazaars and night markets are within walking distance. The hotel staff are very friendly and prompt in their service. I highly recommend this place!
