My stay at The Checkers Hotel was a mixed bag. The warm service from Mr. Jayprakash at the bar truly stood out, yet my experience was tarnished by the unfortunate incident with the tandoori chicken. The location was convenient near the metro, but the room left much to be desired with issues like a loose flush and a lack of hot water. Overall, I felt the hotel had potential, but significant improvements are needed.

The Superior room was smaller than expected, and I noticed a musty smell that suggested it hadn't been updated in ages. The shower controls were out of order, and I had to ask for hot water, which was inconvenient.
Service
5.0
I did appreciate the cordiality of the staff, especially the bellboy who helped with my bags. However, overall responsiveness was lacking, likely due to many staff being trainees.
Location
6.0
The hotel is located on Anna Salai, which is great for access to the metro and relatively close to the airport, though a bit far from the city center.
Dining
5.0
I enjoyed the presentation of the breakfast, though the lack of sausages was disappointing. The dinner buffet was overpriced for what was offered. I couldn't overlook the issue I had with the cucumber served with the tandoori chicken.
Facilities
6.0
They offer 24-hour room service and car hire, which is convenient. However, I didn't fully utilize these services due to my experience with the room.

I had to switch rooms due to problems with water leakage and mosquito issues. It definitely needs sheer renovation.
Service

While the guard at the main entrance was friendly, the staff overall seemed non-responsive. It was frustrating not getting support when I needed to adjust guest numbers.
Location
5.0
The location on Anna Salai is not ideal, especially with construction making access difficult. It feels a bit isolated from shopping areas.
Dining
6.0
The breakfast spread was quite good with nice options, blending Southern Indian and Continental dishes. However, I'd have preferred sausages instead.
Facilities

They do offer room service and car hire, which can be convenient. But I didn't utilize many of those amenities during my stay.

The location was a bit tricky due to ongoing construction. It's central and close to a metro, which is a plus, but the surroundings were chaotic.

While the food offerings were good, I had an unsettling experience when I found a live insect in my cucumber. This really overshadowed the decent menu options.

I had mixed feelings about my stay at The Checkers Hotel. The service provided by the staff was commendable, but the overall condition of the hotel left much to be desired. I encountered a serious issue with the cleanliness of the food I received, which overshadowed the otherwise decent experience.
Rooms
6.0
My room featured a unique round bed, which was a first for me. However, the sheets had a strange smell and the overall cleanliness was lacking.
Service

The service was the stand-out feature of my stay. One staff member, Mr. Jayprakash, was particularly helpful, although I did feel the overall attitude of some staff was somewhat indifferent.
Location

The hotel's location near major business areas was a plus, but my initial positive impression faded when I faced an attempt at overcharging that left a bad taste.
Dining

While I found the dining options appealing, especially the tandoori chicken when it arrived, a major letdown was discovering a live insect in the cucumber that accompanied my meal. This experience made me question the kitchen's attention to detail.
