What reviewers say

Visitors frequently praise the hotel's excellent and helpful staff, comfortable and spacious rooms, and good breakfast. However, some guests note that the breakfast spread can become repetitive and the water heater takes a long time to warm up. One guest also had a negative experience during checkout with staff inspecting their room.

About this place Pharos Hotels

Pharos Hotels is a mainstream mid-range hotel on Sterling Road in Nungambakkam, a central commercial and residential district of Chennai. It is listed as gay-friendly, not a gay venue. Reviews average 4.3 from about 800 guests. Nungambakkam is a practical base, with restaurants, shopping and offices nearby, and Khader Nawaz Khan Road's cafes a short ride away. Marina Beach and the older parts of the city are a taxi ride east, and the airport is around 30 to 45 minutes away depending on traffic. Chennai traffic is heavy at peak hours, so build in time.

A fantastic stay at Pharos hotel. The bed and bathroom was very comfortable and gym was great too (although no air conditioning there!). And food was absolutely delicious for breakfast, probably my favourite in India! My only suggested improvement would be about room service. I tried calling on two separate days and both days no one picked up so I had to go downstairs to order and the staff were reluctant to serve me something from the menu. Otherwise a fantastic stay!

One of the best hotels I have stayed in. The whole experience was outstanding. The food was the best part. Their cuisine and flavours were a class above anything I have tasted before. Look forward to my next visit.

Rooms were very spacious and well maintained. Linen was clean. Washrooms were hygienic. Ambience of the hotel was pleasing. Reception and kitchen staff were very cooperative and friendly. We were two female friends and we felt very safe staying here. Just one suggestion: please improve the variety in the breakfast and dinner buffet menus. Also increase the number of staff present during peak meal times. I felt there were only one or two servers catering to the guests and also there were no one to guide guests, for example on how to operate the toaster. Rest of our experience was very good.
