For a hotel of this class I expect impeccable maintenance around mosquitoes. I had to get a room change in the middle of the night due to mosquito menace. The management seemed oblivious. I found mosquitoes even in the lobby. Given the dangers of mosquitoes in India people choose establishments like this to get a safer environment. This was outright disappointing. I would likely avoid this establishment in future visits. This is sullying the ITC Grand Brand. Hope someone would take notice

Nice, compact room but having a cupboard in front of a mirror is not a great idea! The cupboard housing the minibar & coffee station should be placed elsewhere so that the mirror can be used!

Frequently asked questions

How much does a Chennai holiday package cost?
You can grab a holiday package to this destination from AU$1,160 on Expedia. But how much your holiday to Chennai costs will depend on the season, hotel choice and length of stay.
What are the cheapest months to go to Chennai?
April, May and September are the best times to look for cheap Chennai holiday packages. Travelling in quieter periods means you can generally find reduced prices on accommodation and flights.
How many days is enough for Chennai?
Chennai holidays come in various shapes and sizes, but to get a true feel for this destination, we reckon 3 days is about right. With this timeframe, you can fit in top attractions like Tamilnadu Science and Technology Centres and Sri Kamakshi Amman Temple Mangadu and track down some underrated gems. Don’t skip cool neighbourhoods such as Mylapore Tiruvallikk and Nungambakkam either. If you plan wisely, you can even allow for a day trip or two from Chennai too.

How to find the best Chennai package deals?
Use Expedia’s filters to help you find some of the best Chennai package deals. When you begin your search, simply set your maximum budget and then order the results by “Price: low to high.” If you want to save, plan your break for midweek, or search for Chennai package deals in the low season. Switch up your travel dates and you may score even bigger discounts. As a rule of thumb, it’s usually best to book your holiday package as early as possible.
Is it cheaper to book a Chennai holiday as a package?
Expedia holiday packages are designed to help you keep more money in your pocket. Bundle your hotel, car rental and flight into one great-value price and enjoy significant savings.
