My stay at Taj Connemara was undeniably enjoyable. The staff was incredibly courteous, and the dining experience was a highlight. However, I felt the room could use some updates, as it appeared a bit tired. Still, I would recommend this place wholeheartedly to anyone visiting Chennai.

My stay at Taj Connemara in Chennai was nice, thanks to the friendly staff and superb breakfast. However, the condition of the bathroom left much to be desired, and that dampened the overall experience for me. It truly is a centrally located heritage hotel, but it seems that some maintenance is needed in certain areas.

However, my room was quite dated, which really impacted my experience.

I recently stayed at Taj Connemara for three nights, and overall, it was a pleasant experience. The highlight for me was the warm hospitality of the staff who were genuinely accommodating, although the heritage room I stayed in felt a bit dull and didn't quite meet the five-star standard. The location was fantastic, but I would suggest some improvements in the rooms themselves.
