La Woods Hotel

I was put up in room 309. The good: 1. staff is courteous 2. buffet breakfast is OK 3. the room was clean 4. Easy to locate, access 5. Good vegetarian restaurants are located close-by 6. Filtered water supplied in bottles were safe The not so good: 1. in 5N stay, Wi-Fi did not work for one full stretch of 24 hours 2. the room door access got disabled from outside (I could exit but not enter with the card); the staff claimed that the battery had to be replaced, but did not do so till I checked out. They opened the door with a mechanical key whenever I had to enter. 3. I am a vegetarian and the restaurant had very few options in dinner 4. Most of the hotel stinks with unpleasant odour. The aisle on the third floor (where my room was located) had a bad odour - stale oil, restrooms stench and such. 5. The room too had a stale odour, probably because the room was unused for long. I asked the staff to spray the room freshener and they promptly did. 6. There were two mirrors, one in the room and another in the bathroom. Lights to those mirrors did not work. 7. The central air conditioning was extremely noisy. I had to switch it off. Fortunately, the weather was good, which is a rarity in Chennai. So, I could sleep without the air conditioning. 8. The juice glasses at the restaurant had a stale ancient wet cloth odour; probably the restaurant had been reusing the cloth, without washing, for ages. Some cutlery too had the same odour. 7. The small bowls at the restaurant were cleaned, but had water - they were not wiped dry. If they were, probably they too would have had ancient wet cloth odour! 8. On busy days, many items in the breakfast menu ran out and were not replenished 9. There were tissues in the bathroom, but there were no hand tissues in the room. 10. There was a dustbin only in the bathroom, none in the room. 11. One night there was continuous noise in the air conditioning duct. I thought that rodents were moving in the duct. I complained about it the next morning, at the reception. It was not rodent, but I think the maintenance staff were making all the noise in the night, without bothering about the sleeping guests.

Very nice stay here the rooms are excellent very clean well maintained the staff was friendly and helpful with all my needs are is close to many sites. I would stay here again.

This hotel was perfect for us - we spent a week exploring Chennai, and found the location worked very well; there is easy access to the (easy to use) metro, a large mall is nearby, as well as coffee shops and inexpensive restaurants aplenty. The hotel itself is spotless, the staff very friendly and responsive, and the breakfast was excellent. There's nothing FANCY here, but a clean and quiet room, comfortable bed and linen, and pleasant people to interact with. Perfect for our needs.

The staff was very helpful, especially the person at the reception during the night and early morning; he was extremely supportive. However, the lady receptionist who checked us into the hotel room around 13:00 hours seemed biased towards local tourists. Even though we arrived before a family, she checked them in first because we were from another state and did not know her local language. I mention this because I initially spoke to her in English and she asked for my ID, but when another family arrived and spoke in Tamil, she asked me to wait for 5 minutes, processed their check-in before ours, and handed them the room key.

Food is good, staff is friendly and good, nice place to stay😍

Not at all worth for the price Stayed in May 2025. The hotel is very pricey. Not at all worth for ~INR4700/night for one king bedroom. Ambiance is not good, when we entered it was smelling bad. Cleanliness was good not great. Not maintained well. Dust from AC vent (not cleaned for years looks like). You will not feel to use water kettle or small refrigerator. Checkin was fast but not satisfactory e.g., they gave me room key and have to ask everything WiFi, password, breakfast details etc. They have good buffet breakfast. Service was good.

La Woods Hotel. This hotel is nice and good. The re eption service part was a little below standard. There was nobody to carry the luggage Upto the room and also to bring down while checkout. We couldn't use the breakfast part due to travel scheduling. The receptionist after checkin registration gave the key and said go to the room. There was only one de tal kit and one towell for a checkin of two persons. Had to request for second dental kit,shaving kit, and another towell which should have been provided before checking into the room. The standard of the hotel otherwise including cleanliness and hygiene was good. The location, near LIC, was not very easily accessible.

Very clean and neat rooms. Check in and check out process was very fast and the staffs were very friendly. They have a bar and restaurant and their meals is something I would highly recommend for everyone to try. I also booked Car from them to Airport. The Driver was well informed and very polite. Thanks La Woods Hotel💯💯
