Taj Connemara, Chennai

Loved everything about our stay. Came for the buffet about 30 years ago and 30 years later we stayed. Room comfortable - bed super large and comfy - and quiet. All staff polite, professional and nothing too much trouble. Gym of my own and equipment fine and a lovely view for a jog on the machine! Pool so beautiful. Location as easy as anywhere in a big city to get to places. Lots of hotel life to observe, especially at the weekend. Hotel big enough to have options for food etc but small enough to feel fairly personal. Thanks

A lovely heritage hotel with a large pool area edged with palm trees. A good place to relax after a busy day in Chennai. Good spa. Colonial rooms are spacious and well decorated with large beds and attractive furnishings - balconies overlooking pool area Passageways are decorated with historical photos and palms which add to the charm of this hotel

EXCELLENT STAFF, SUPERBLY MANAGED AND BEAUTIFUL CLUB AREA. Charming business hotel with pleasant pool and spa facilities as well as a couple of good shops to nose around! Food was superb and I'm especially appreciative of the Team in NiueNau, Ram Shafi, Dhana and Chef Shanmug who did everything they could to make sure I had a warm welcome and I had sumptuous food! The Reception Staff are outstanding as well as the Team in the Club Room where I enjoyed healthy breakfasts and my wine in the evening. The Staff cleaning the rooms are also superb and made sure my room, linen and towels were always immaculate! Thank you Vikram at Concierge for looking after all my travel needs - see you again soon!

We had an exceptional stay at the Taj Connemara, Chennai. From the moment we arrived, the welcome staff made us feel right at home, and the check-in process was incredibly smooth. The team ensured we settled in comfortably. A special highlight of our stay was the personalized culinary experience. During high tea, the chef went above and beyond by preparing customized dishes that catered perfectly to our preferences. At dinner, Yuvaraj, Arokyadas, and Shaji truly made our experience unforgettable. They took the time to understand our taste buds and offered a variety of dishes tailored to our liking. They even encouraged our kids to explore different flavors, making the meal enjoyable and engaging for them. What stood out the most was the staff's dedication to engaging with our kids, discovering their food preferences, and then crafting meals accordingly. This attention to detail and care made our stay particularly special. A heartfelt thank you to the entire staff, especially Yuvaraj, Shaji, and Arokyadas, for your exceptional service. You truly made our stay memorable.

We loved the old world charm the property exuded, from the paintings on the walls to it's tasteful interiors. The breakfast spread was beautifully presented and the food delicious. Our steward Bhaskaran was exceptionally conscientious and helpful on the mornings he was on duty. On the Sunday we arrived we were delighted to listen to the music provided by a lady singer at the Sunday lunch buffet. It created such a pleasant and relaxing ambience which was a lovely start to our vacation. Monica who we met in the lobby on many occasions was so cheerful and helpful It was lovely chatting with her. Roshni in the salon was one of the most efficient & experienced hair dresser cum beauticians I've met. The salon is well equipped & uses excellent products !
