Trident, Chennai

Trident, Chennai

10/10 Excellent
"Don't get dazzled by other 5 star hotels in Chennai. This is part of Oberoi group and consistently maintaining its quality all around. Close to the international airport, still quiet and rooms are functionally situated for amenities. Hotel staff are very friendly and cater to your food needs. It does not jazz up with lights and fanfare but a pretty good staying place when you travel from far away places like USA or Canada. You can rest, unwind and move on to your mission in Chennai, be its a travel agenda or work. I have been staying here whenever I visit Chennai. Ideally suited when you have to go to the airport early in the morning which is normally the case for most of the international flights. It is about 15Km away from the center of the city and it can be to your advantage to stay in a quiet neighborhood after work hours"
