Possibly the Worst Hotel in India

If you are looking for a hotel where you can actually sleep, then this is not the hotel for you. Facilities are great but this is my second stay and everynight they have banquets and parties on the 2nd Floor, I was on the 4th and 5th Floors and the walls in my room were still vibrating at 11pm at night. The bass sounds were actually louder than passing aircraft. Despite numerous attempts, the management were totally ineffective and were unable to manage the noise, by my estimation in excess of 20 guests were complaining and still nothing was done.

The hotel is centrally located. The service was personalised and every demand was fulfilled with a smile. The rooms have wi-fi connectivity and were large and very clean with all the amenities you would expect at a good hotel.

Outstanding

Stayed at the Raintree for 4 days, until yesterday. Very well appointed rooms, great location, wonderful restaurants and great service. Right from the door man to the room service staff, all were committed to make my stay the best. The hotel has a very minimailisic decor (a break from hotels, which I usually stay). Staff at Rainbow, took all efforts to provide great food, although it is a little overpriced. Newspapers were provided every morning along with complimentary fruits. Overall it was a great stay- I intend to stay again.

Highly recommend

This hotel is definately the best place to stay in if you visit Chennai and you need to be located in the heart of the city but in a quiet corner. The rooms are lovely decorated with beautiful marble bathroom, stunning shower and comfortable bath tub. Highly recommend the Hotel.

Good Place to Stay

I checked out from the hotel yesterday after nearly staying for one month along with my wife and kids, before I could move into my new apartment. My company booked me here before they could find accomadation for me in an apartment. My kids are not too fond of Indian food, the chef took and rest managers took special care to cater to their needs and also orgainsed a small little B'Day party for the little one. The rooms are reasonably sized, but had a little with the internet. The complimentary breakfast is pretty good. Staff are pretty friendly. During our stay in Chennai, we would for sure frequent the hotel.

Must stay

My room at the The Raintree, was so good that after a long ady at work I decided to unwind at the hotel itself. On arrival, I was escorted to my room by the Mgr and through my company had booked me in the deluxe room, I was upgraded on arrival to the club floor. A great pool and bar facing the pool, seems to be the most frequented place among the expats in Chennai. Must Stay, for sure.

Good experience marred at the end

I stayed at the Raintree for a few days and found it to be a lovely place - good food, rooms etc. On the last day, I found 1 wall lizards perched over my bed and another strolling across the pillow, which given my phobia towards them means I will never return to that place again.
