If you are going to US Consulate, look no further, this is the most convenient hotel. It's just a 5 minute walk to the Consulate. The rooms are clean and compact. And the staff are extremely courteous. The only downside is there's no Internet in the rooms, but you can use the wifi in the lobby. But I would recommend... More

The Sea Shell Residency is in a great location, it is opposite two good restaurants and just a walk away from Spencer Plaza. In the hotel, the service is good. The staff are very polite and helpful. The manager went out of his way to help us book a cab to the airport. Unfortunately, the rooms could not match that... More

The hotel is ok to stay for a few days. Basic room and facilities. Wifi only at the reception. And a bit expensive for what it offers like everything else in Chennai. The food from their restaurant is really good, especially the shawarma.

Sea Shell Residency is located right where Greams Road joins Anna Salai Highway. It is only a walking distance from US Consulate. There are 2 vegetarian restaurants available, one just below the hotel and one right opposite to it. Both restaurants are okay, though we found the food a bit costly. The hotel provides only 2 bread sandwiches/person as a... More

Overall it was an average experience, i cannot complain of any major problems apart from no internet connectivity in rooms. But at the same time i cannot say it was a very pleasant stay. Its a decent place to stay.
