The Perfect Places to Rest Your Head in Chennai

Hotels in Chennai  
 

Budget Backpackers

If you’re heading to Chennai on a backpacking holiday, you’re probably doing so on the cheap, but this doesn’t mean you can’t still find a safe and comfortable place to stay.  There are many one and two star hotels and holiday resorts where you can enjoy the security of staying within a larger hotel community.  The city’s specialist backpacker hostels pride themselves on offering the best accommodation in their price range.  

Mid Range Accommodations

If you’re watching your wallet but would still like your accommodation outfitted with mod cons and affording some privacy, look for three star hotels which offer clean rooms, and reliable service without a hefty price tag attached.  Most of these hotels are right in the heart of Chennai so you don’t have to worry about stressful commutes in Chennai’s searing heat.  

Luxury Hotels

Chennai with its harsh weather can be an especially hard city to do and a luxury hotel room might be a gentler base from where to explore the city. Choose from one of the big name international chains which offer top of the line room furnishings, personalized services, and world class amenities or head to a private resort on the outskirts of the city.  Chennai also has a couple of India’s extravagant palace hotels where the interiors are opulent and service borders on the fawning.  Each palace hotel sets its accommodation, service, and cuisine around a theme, making each hotel unique.  You can expect a palace hotel which takes its inspiration from the Indian film industry, for instance to throw up drama, kitschy glitz, and glamour in the surroundings.  Or choose a private beachside cottage where you can enjoy the sound of the waves, breathtaking ocean views, and your own exclusive gardens on a palm fringed beach front.
