Zero Value For Money

Whenever I visited Chennai, I stayed in not so known hotel previously. This time, I thought I will go for the brand name and chose New Woodlands Hotel. It was a nightmarish experience. Absolutely no value for money. They have rooms, with bed sheets and upholstery around 30 years old. They charge a bomb and then provide the least of facilities. They have a box, with glass called TV. All these might be acceptable if you pay peanuts, but when you are paying what New Woodland Hotels charges, it is highly unacceptable. The AC in the room, sounds like a lorry parked outside and the rooms are so dimly light, god I would prefer a dungeon that this place. The Cot is stinking and nothing is satisfactory. Again, I stress, absolutely no value for money. Please don't try it. Take my advice and avoid this hotel.

I visited Chennai with my wife and had booked at The New Woodlands Hotel. I had seen it on the net and made my choice. This is my view on the place. The reception staff: Polite,fairly effecient. The other staff: Polite,willing to help. The rooms: Spacious,pretty clean especially the bathrooms. The problems in the room are: 1.The TV is too far from the bed,also lacks basic channels. 2.The floor could use a change of tiles to look brighter. 3.The sheets could be of better quality. 4.The air conditioner needs a better regulator in the room. The rates:Very reasonable for what u get. The food:Very tasty but maybe a tad over-priced. Overall:Acceptable if u want a clean,simple room with no frills.

I loved new woodlands

I stayed at the new woodlands from Oct 8th 2006 to Oct 13 2006. The rooms are spotless but simple by North American/European stands. I had a delux room for R1300 plus tax. The room had AC cable TV and a mini fridge. The restaurants are not to be missed great and cheap. Note: all restaurants at this hotel are veg. only. This hotel caters to an indian clientel. If you want everything to be just like back home this may not be the hotel for you. But if you want to really experience India then this is a great hotel. Location is good its about a 20 min walk to marina beach. there are plenty of bank machines in the area. Also a supermarket just a block away. I plan to go back to Chennai next year and I be staying at the New Woodlands.

Death trap Some of the rooms on the New Woodlands window open onto a narrow shaft which has exit. So if there was a fire in the corridor there would be no means of escape !
