Hotel Chandra Park

Chennai (Madras)


Chandra Park’s prices remain mysteriously lower than those at most similar establishments. 'Standard' rooms are smallish and a bit dated but have air-con, clean towels and tight, white sheets. Throw in polite service, 24-hour checkout and free wi-fi, and this is one of the best values in Chennai.
