“Good stay in Kanchipuram”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 January 2012

The GRT Regency in Kanchipuram is as good as can be expected in a provincial town in India. The rooms are clean, the bed is not bad even if a little short. Showering was a bit difficult because the shower faucet was not working well, but we managed to get ourselves clean. There was a bit of noise from generators.

We stayed two nights and were disappointed by the breakfast. There is a mix of Western style and Indian dishes, but the quality of both should be better.

The restaurant at the hotel is nothing better than average as well. It serves some non-Indian food as well, which might come in handy for travelers from abroad. For Indian food, the Saravana Bhavan is probably better.

The bar in the basement reminded us of other provincial bars in hotels. Drinks are poured as if they are the finest quality and the bartenders think highly of themselves. It is fun to watch and worth trying out. Don't look too close in the corners though, because cleanliness here could be better...

Room Tip: Maybe the higher rooms are better because there are some generators on the ground.

“surprisingly good for a small town”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 January 2012

i was blown by the hotel and its cleanliness because otherwise I found Kanchipuram to be quite a dirty little town. It was clean, had nice crisp sheets and the loo was clean- I didn't need anything else at all.
I would totally recommend this place for anyone who wants a clean and nice place to stay

“You won't go wrong with this Hotel for your stay in Kanchipuram”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 January 2012
2
people found this review helpful

There are not many great options to stay in Kanchipuram and you will not be disappointed with GRT Residency. Centrally located, it is on one of the main shopping streets in Kanchipuram and is a convenient place for shopping. Saravana Bhavan, th famous vegetarian restaurant, is just next to it.

The hotel is obviously only 3 star at most, but is very neat and decent. Rooms are also neat and clean, though a little small.

They have a little restaurant attached to the hotel, which serves fairly decent fare at affordable rates. The restaurant staffs are friendly and too happy to help you with your order. In case you tire of the food in this restaurant, you have the option of stepping into Saravana Bhavan, which is just next door, for some great vegetarian dishes.

“Disappointing”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 December 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Very disappointing experience. Had to shell out INR 4500 + taxes for a so called suit room which is nothing more than a small bed room and a crooked living room. Hot water and aircondition dint work. Had to call reception several times for hot water and air condition to get them fixed. For a small town like Kanchi, this hotel is very expensive and definitely not value for money.

“Good Hotel in a smal town....”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 November 2011
1
person found this review helpful

If your looking for a good hotel to stay in this small town, this is the best you can get. The rooms are good and clean... bathroom was clean and comfortable. A/C was working well and I asked for a non-smoking room and I got one.. so there was no bad smell in the room. For INR 3.5K this is good..... the car parking, entry and exit was a bit cramped for space. Food was good.... not very oily but still tasty. Good service as well.... good place to stay. They can put a bigger display board on the road as you tend to miss this hotel entrance which is small in the busy Gandhi road.. !!!

Room Tip: Book in advance if you need a non-smoking room
