I was little late for my arrival due to delay in flight. When i had called up the hotel. The staff were so polite to take the message and confirmed. Upon my arrival all docs were ready and just need to sign. Room was nice and comfortable. Only issue the view area from window was to the aircon unit. No view to anything else

STAY AT AMBASSADOR PALLAVA, EGMORE
I expect some extended hours of free stay and change the time at least upto 2 pm since the job I have come may go few hours extra and then to return to Airport. So many hotels nearby are offering this and to prefer this Hotel for my future stay.

As everyone says, it is an older hotel, which has its plusses and minuses. They have nice art around the hotel and in the rooms. Lots of real wood items unlike in newer hotels. On the other hand, the maintenance needs much improvement. More cleaning is needed of some of the art items which are showing signs of mold. The management and staff are not at the level of top hotels. Looks like they havent really had any hospitality training. This one guy managing the reception desk was abrasive and had no place being in that position. Breakfast was good. If they put some money into refurbishment and improved cleaning, this could be a top hotel once again.

The front lobby ambience was good. Other than that things are out dated and not as per the standards of a 4 star hotel. Restaurant facilities need to enhanced further. Room ambience is quite old fashioned and needs a ton of improvement. Mosquitoes issue in rooms.

Stay was excellent. Staff are very well trained and professional. Food was scrumptious at the restaurant. Breakfast was good and the rooms are huge. It is a heritage hotel but worth the stay. Will recommend to others.
