9.4/10 Exceptional! (719 reviews)
In many small ways the Leela is twice as nice as similar "five star" hotels in the area: * Organic teas in the room. * Granite bathtub. * Amazing volume of hot shower water. * Organic tea selection. * Eight bottles of water instead of 2. * Spacious rooms with Amazing views. * Quiet inside and out. * Complimentary apples and cookies in room. * Easy check in and check out. * No lines in lobby. * Fantastic welcome drink. * Evening musical performance on the water. * Good art in the rooms. They can improve their phone concierge comprehension. Speed is very slow: 15-60 minutes for almost any request, including a cup of tea in the restaurant. Buy the included breakfast and dinner on Expedia when available, since it is worth it and cheaper on Expedia.

9.2/10 Wonderful! (511 reviews)
Lovely hotel in a quiet area in Chennai. We arrived on a flight at 5am and we booked hotel taxi to pick us up. When we arrived at 6am they kindly let us leave our cases and said they would work to get us an early check in so we went out for a walk and a spot of breakfast and when we came back at 9am they had our room ready for us. This was a god send and we really appreciated the effort the had made. Hotel is 10 mins in tuktuk to beach front and is just about walkable distance to Mysore temple. They have a roof top bar which was a great spot to sit in eveving with a drink overlooking the city at night. Breakfast buffet was included in room price and they had a good selection of Indian and western fare. There are a few restarunats and bars in the area and streets are walkable for the most part.
