Overview: INDIA, CHENNAI: I've stayed in many high end luxury hotels now over the years but few of them actually offer good value for money given their exorbitant price. Sure they are for the most part memorable and ultra luxurious but you're paying through the nose for your hotel room. Leela Palace Hotel in Chennai was different. Although a 5 star hotel, I actually felt I got great value for the money I spent. From the breakfast buffet, to the gym, pool and other restaurants. The amenities, the service and everything at The Leela Palace was unrivalled and offered exceptional value for money. Hence what was supposed to be a two day stay, ended up becoming a week of incredible wining and dining at the beachfront in Chennai's biggest city Tamil Nadu.
