Very rude front desk staff. Not helpful and very lazy too. No water supply in the room toilet. Some one came after so many calls and got water flowing only in wash basin taps . Very poor . Not worth for the money. Stayed only one night

Nice hotel close to Office and center of Chennai.
It was a nice stay at Southern Crest, this is my third time I stayed here. Best part is breakfast they serve a decent breakfast other than local food.

Excellent location helpful staff great breakfast
I have stayed several times in this hotel and always have enjoyed my stay. The staff specially Mr Parthiban have gone out of the way to make our stay great. The location of hotel is close to shopping area of usman road, the morning breakfast is extensive, wifi is free with decent speed, rooms are big and with air condition. I would stay here again and highly recommend it!

Negative Feedback
The management of this hotel is not upto the expectation. They are charging extra amount over whatever we have paid already at the time of check in. And are not able to give any explanation of that charge. Never like to deal with such hotel management.
