Beds and linen was in horrible condition full of stains. The front desk staffs are lousy and non-responsive, they are not professionally managed. The cost is too high for the quality and standard maintained by the hotel. We are asked to wait for an hour in the corridor while the housekeeping crew was cleaning the room - entirely washing the room with water !!! the dampness in the room made me sick and I have to pay a hefty bill for the doctor. ##### vivek ### 2/10 Terrible #### Zumrut Arol 16 Oct 2016 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Please don't suggest to anybody. ##### Zumrut Arol ### 6/10 Okay #### ketharanathan, chennai 25 Sept 2016 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### ambica empire review it wasn't too bad. but they have annoying wifi daily pass.

Pathetic service. ##### Shareef Ahmad ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 8 Jan 2015 Disliked: Staff & service #### overall it was ok Overall it was good. The reception staff could be more accomodating ##### Verified traveller ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 4 Jan 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort Disliked: Staff & service #### Ambiga Empire Reception left a bad taste The stay would have been much better if the hotel reception personell weren't in a hurry to get rid of us. we extended our stay and they showed no patience. Insted they kept calling us to see if we can come down and pay immedietely. Breakfast closed early. no wakeup call was given when asked. When Do not Disturb was on they still call you. Laundry and Car are too expensive here. ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 30 Dec 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort ##### Verified traveller ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 17 Apr 2013 Disliked: Cleanliness #### Poor choice for the price Fresh paint stink on the floor and in the room. Poorly made bed. No exhaust in the toilet. Toilet door did not close well and had a big gap which let the stink come into the room. ##### Verified traveller ### 4/10 Poor #### Andreas 13 Dec 2012 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Noisy location In front of hote is a very noisy road which is now under constraction (this is almost in all town the case). Web presentation locks impressiv but it is only cheap kitsch. Housekeeping staff always closes the curtains and switch on the light - simple reason for this: windows are increadible dirty! ##### Andreas ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 3 Nov 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### good comfort satisfied ##### Verified traveller ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 24 Sept 2012 #### Ok for short stay Stayed 1 night at hotel as we were in transition. Would not stay longer.

Der var rent og pænt, og personalet var meget flinke og hjælpsomme, og var kun interesseret i at hjælpe os, så vi kunne have nogle perpekte dage, hvad vi også havde. Eneste minus var, at hotellet ikke havde helt styr på deres bogholderi. De påstod, at de ikke havde modtaget penge fra Hotel.com, og ville have os til at afregne med dem. Trådene blev udredet efter et opkald til Hotel.com, som dog kostede os 217 kr. ##### Inge H.H. ### 4/10 Poor #### shinobu, 静岡県富士宮市 15 Jan 2012 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### 思ったほど満足できないホテル バスルームにゴキブリがいた、換気がない。 アメニティーグッズはあまりない。　バスタオルしかない。ハンドタオルを頼んだら洗濯をしているから　ないと言われた。 場所は汚い、近くには買い物する所はない。 朝食はまあまあ、夜のルームサービスの食事はおいしかった。 ##### shinobu ### 8/10 Good #### John, Portland, OR 23 Oct 2010 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### mostly as advertised The breakfast is good Indian fare. Pretty much everything was good except two things: -- I couldn't get wireless to work on my Mac, and neither could their IT staff -- I had to book an airport cab and was told I could not do it on the phone even though while talking to them on the phone they confirmed my reservation. I had to do it over email. ##### John ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Mosaic House Design Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Prague-Hotels-Mosaic-House-Design-Hotel.h3628196.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Chennai by GRT Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chennai-Hotels-Grand-Chennai-By-GRT-Hotels.h1598912.Hotel-Information) > > [Galdana Gardens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ciutadella-De-Menorca-Hotels-Apartaments-Galdana-Gardens.h13427993.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Lisboa Congress Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lisboa-Congress-Centre-Hotels.0-l6145229-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels near Meteora](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Meteora-Hotels.0-l6142330-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Taj Fisherman's Cove Resort & Spa, Chennai](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chennai-Hotels-Taj-Fishermans-Cove-Resort-Spa.h526336.Hotel-Information) > > [InterContinental Chennai Mahabalipuram Resort by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chennai-Hotels-InterContinental-Chennai-Mahabalipuram-Resort.h11918335.Hotel-Information) > > [The Leela Palace Chennai](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chennai-Hotels-The-Leela-Palace-Chennai.h4791355.Hotel-Information) > > [CILON Suites](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santorini-Hotels-CILON-Suites.h48979140.Hotel-Information) > > [Taj Connemara](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chennai-Hotels-Taj-Connemara.h526335.Hotel-Information) > > [GreeneKing Hotels in Cambridge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Greene-King.0-0-d781--bGreeneKing.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Ile d'Oleron](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ile-DOleron-Hotels.d6053070.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [PortAventura Hotel Roulette - Includes unlimited access to PortAventura Park & 1 access to Ferrari Land](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Salou-Hotels-PortAventura-Hotel-Roulette-Theme-Park-Tickets-Included.h8658170.Hotel-Information) > > [MarriottHotelsResorts Hotels in Cornwall](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cornwall-Hotels-Marriott-Hotels-Resorts.0-0-d6145039--bMarriottHotelsResorts.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [INNhale Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colorado-Springs-Hotels-INNhale-BB-Resort.h35612026.Hotel-Information) > > [Houseboats Penarth](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Penarth-Houseboats.d182878-aaHouseboats.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [ITC Grand Chola, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Chennai](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chennai-Hotels-ITC-Grand-Chola.h4942760.Hotel-Information) > > [The Raintree, St. Mary's Road](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chennai-Hotels-The-Raintree.h1354076.Hotel-Information) > > [Aza Cave Hotel Special Class Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nevsehir-Hotels-Aza-Cave-Suites.h39135776.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Port Ellen](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Ellen-Hotels.d182810.Travel-Guide-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Paisley (GLA) to Chester (CEG)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/gla/ceg/glasgow-to-chester) > > [Spirit Airlines](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Spirit-Airlines-Flights.cNK.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Edinburgh (EDI) to Auckland (AKL)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/edi/akl/edinburgh-to-auckland) > > [Flights from Leeds (LBA) to Oban (OBN)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lba/obn/leeds-to-oban) ### Packages > [The Maltings Theatre and Cinema](https://www.expedia.co.uk/The-Maltings-Theatre-And-Cinema-Berwick-upon-Tweed.d553248621532494580.Attraction) > > [York Gate Garden](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Gate-Garden-Leeds.d553248621561766903.Attraction) ### General > [Visit France](https://www.expedia.co.uk/France.dx59) > > [Visit Santa Pola](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santa-Pola.dx6025700)
