Guest Reviews
- Verified traveler (6/5): Very close to airport - Not a great hotel but just close to airport and in the main road. Ok level service and so reluctant for any online activities
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Drap et taie d’oreillers sales pas de papier de toilette et une serviette pour deux
Même après réclamation
- Sonny (10/5): Very nice! - Very nice hotel near the airport. Room was excellent!!!
- Verified traveler (6/5): You Get What You Pay For - Stained bedding and hair on the sheet didn’t make a good first impression. Two smoke detectors were chirping in the hallway and the staff wouldn’t change the batteries. I showed them how to do it. Had to ask for second towel although I booked for two guests. Had to be assertive to get free airport shuttle and was asked to pay the toll. Free WiFi was restricted to 20 minutes. Only had to kill two roaches, so I guess it wasn’t too bad.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice hotel - Good to stay in hotel.........
- ILANGO (2/5): - Not at all good.
- Verified traveler (2/5): Worst decision ever. Do not book it. - They tried to give us one of the servant quarters when we had booked a deluxe room.
Worst hotel ,worst people. It sucks
- Aydan (4/5): - I didn't enjoy my stay at all. It was fine for a night after travelling. The check in wasn't good, they tried to charge me for a shuttle pick up that I didn't use, I got a taxi ride there. Dirty/stained sheets. No toilet paper. TV didn't work. Wifi barely worked and you had to ask for a password every hour. When I left, they charged me 6$ for a shuttle to the airport. I wouldn't recommend, only for the proximity to the airport.
- Verified traveler (2/5): Ein Hotel unter jeglichem Niveau - Eine Frechheit
Dreckig
Uralte Einrichtung
Völlig falsch dargestellt im Internet
Dreckige Handtücher
Alles in allem eine Zumutung
- Hyesung (8/5): Cheap price - Price OK.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Good - Very friendly staff
- Kilnarma Rajagopal (4/5): poor. - very casual and ordinary.
- Yair (2/5): so bad! - it was so bad I didn't stay. the room was dirty, the service was the bad (didn't agree to call the manger even that we ask to speak with him), no WIFI , and you are sleeping in a gas station area!!!
- ANOOP (2/5): Worst Hotel ever seen in my life” - Looks good outside but Inside - Dirty floor, Stained Bedsheet, Nasty Bathroom, horrible staffs. Worst Hotel in Chennai. Please don't book.
- Sekhar (4/5): - WiFi not working
- Verified traveler (4/5): - I had booked a INR 1900 room so was expecting at least a decent service. The girl at the receptionist was extremely rude. There was no hot water, the bathroom was in a pathetic condition. There was renovation going on in the neighbouring rooms so was very disturbing. When I asked for plates to eat there was nothing. Overall rating would be 1 out of 5.
Extremely disappointing.
- umesh (4/5): Average place - Nothing very special about this hotel.Average.Since i was a south indian too,I got my orders right.I dont think they are the same to all.since the hotel is situated on a very busy main road,one cannot expect serene and satisfying conditions.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Comfortable.Tea/Coffee should be served with B/F. - Comfortable stay.Centrally located.close to airport and projects of my company
- Subahani (8/5): good one - I stayed for only one even then it was gud experience, I enjoyed it. airport dropwas exelent. thank u guys.
- Prabhu (4/5): - Have stayed at different Hotel Mars locations, this one was advertised as the best of all, but it a huge disappointment.
None of the features advertised was available in additional Expedia failing to update about hotel renovations.
- yeshi (6/5): Good budget hotel - Had a nice stay.... Cleanliness was not an issue, staff were courteous.
- Lorena (6/5): La Habitación no es lo que está en la foto. - pues... me dijeron que cual habitación había pagado y no me dieron la que se veía en la reserva ...pague por una habitación doble de lujo y me dieron una standard ac
- Muralidhar V (6/5): Closest cheapest yet good hotel at Chennai airport - Closest and cheapest yet comfortable and clean hotel near the International Airport with free pick up and drop service. I would choose this to stay overnight while changing flights. People are very friendly and nice.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Close to airport and much better than reviews say - After reading the reviews I was worried about staying here but my room was good and the staff were really helpful, especially Nafis, he even booked a movie for me in my room and sent someone to get credit for my cellphone. Great stay, would stay again!
- Verified traveler (2/5): Astonishingly pathetic! - Services offered by the reception staff was pathetic. They were rude and non sense!
Even though the airport transfers were confirmed twice, no one came to pick up! During airport drop, they cheated us by dropping somewhere far from the airport. Later a local police forced the driver to drop us at airport.
- Thomas (2/5): Hôtel crasseux et personnel terrifiant - Accueilli par un réceptionniste qui se mouche comme un footballeur devant moi. Il me hurle dessus parce que je ne retrouve pas le mail expédia dans ma bal.
Passe ensuite un cafard entre mes jambes (certes un classique en Inde, mais de belle taille celui-ci).
La chambre est immonde. Oreiller déchiré, taches d'origines inconnues sur les draps qui ont dus être blanc il y a 20 ans. Joie de dormir habillé..
Eau chaude inexistante...
Un grand moment de solitude...
- Dr. Narendra (6/5): good transit hotel for chennai flight passenger, - located near Airport, free trasfort facilities also safisfactory,other aminities to be increased
- kumar singh (2/5): booked for two person but at time not allowed - Very bad. Booked for two person but at time we reached hotel not allowed us for stay together. After that i booked another room for her.
- Ashu (2/5): Pathetic!!! Do not go there!!! - The receptionist was just dumb!!! He said that he did not have any information nor intimation about the booking.
I was made to pay for the room again..No wake up call .. very ineffcient and dumb staff!!! Have stayed there before and it was good... but now it has become BAD!!!!!
- Swapan Datta (6/5): COMFY BEDS - The stay was pleasant as per the tariff charged. Airport pick up was the highlight of the stay. There was no pantry or Restaurant service at all which is totally negative.
- Verified traveler (2/5): Very bad option to select this hotel. - The hotel is not as good as you see in the photograph posted in expedia. I would suggest you not to
refer this hotel for any reason in your website. It is not unto the expectations.
- kumi (6/5): good hotel, good access to the airport. - it was a small, simple hotel, but it is very convenient to go to the airport. staffs were also kind and nice. there were also free transfer survice to the airport.
it would not be a good choice if you want to stay in city central.
only problem was that there were some noises until late night.
but anyway it's good for casual traveller.
- Verified traveler (2/5): Cheated - Bad
very bad
no facility of even tea water
bathrooms no supply of water
fellow got water in buckets from ground floor
- Kumar (2/5): Do Not Go Near This Hotel - We stayed at this hotel "Mars Classic-Pallavaram" for one night . It is terrible. The Hotel is right on the Grand South Trunk Road. The traffic is continuous and truckers use loud horns .
The room Air Conditioning was so bad that it does nothing to cool the room .
Morning Breakfast was not available because the 'Cook ' had gone for summer holiday !!
There is no staff except the person at the Reception desk. He has one simple answer for anything and everything - " No Sir".
These places must be removed from the list of establishments .
DO NOT GO NEAR THIS HOTEL.
- mark (2/5): Terrible stay - Worst experience ever had, never recommend this place to anyone. If possible remove from expedia site list. Unnecessarily bad reputation to expedia for suggesting this.
- Verified traveler (2/5): Bad - Very bad
- Erin (8/5): Pleasant - A pleasant stay for a stop over in Chennai. We will be returning!
- Verified traveler (8/5): Convenient hotel to stay close to the Airport - Quick and free pickup and drop to the Airport. Hotel staff are friendly!
- レディ (4/5): Close to airport and free drop to airport - My room door was locked and the door didnt open , finally the room boy climbed through sun shade and entered from windows to open the door ,not a good hotel to stay with family.
- Sunjeev (4/5): Was on highway. Very noise. - We took two rooms. .One was newly built and specious. Second room was old one , not so specious. In fronts of our room lots of painting material stored and smelling. Staff not professional. However, complimentary packed breakfast provided while the same was not included in price. Hence not recommending.
- Ashish (2/5): Poor Service and No Amenities - The hotel staff is not at all co-operative. We asked for water two times but it wasn't provided. Bath Towels were also missing and only one was provided when we asked for them. If going there,don't expect anything.
- Karthikeyan (2/5): No use at all - I had a chance of staying one night and i booked through hotels.com site. But, when we visited we could not find basic needs, like no hotwater, no cleanliness( lot of stains in bathroom toilet). we have to call the room service for each and every thing. Except it is close to chennai airport. I will not visit this place again.
- guru (4/5): do not go for it - Our experience is worst. Hotel staff's attitude is very bad. We had to wait for 2 hours to check-in even though we have booked it online. we were left with no other options as we have already paid the money online. No restaurant is available in the hotel. The only good thing is it is 1-2 km away from airport. staff's response for anything is bad. it can be called as a lodge not a hotel. it is a star hotel without stars.
- Ambuj (2/5): Terrible - No Wifi.
Dirty stained sheets- not changed for the stay duration despite several requests.
No tea coffee maker
rude staff
Simple facilities like ironing not available for 3 days
will not like to stay there any more
- Shyam (2/5): Keep away from this hotel, terrible for stay. - This was a terrible stay. This was no cleanness in the hotel, the linen was not changed. no drinking water was provided even after requesting. Staff was not friendly. Geyser was not working. instead of pickup - drop mentioned was not provided. Breakfast was mentioned in the itinerary but there was no facility for the same.
