Excellant Hotel to stay. Very good caring staff and personalised care for regular guests. Room service is very good and tasty food. I enjoy the typical South Indian Filter Coffee - which is more authentic taste.

"Chola Sheraton" as this hotel was known for nearly 40 years was a signature in hospitality and grandeur in Chennai. It is shocking to see this being downgraded by its owners to a budget+ brand - which looks specifically created to park this property. The hotel, located in the city centre of Chennai and is quite a land-mark has not... More

I stayed in this Hotel for 3 nights.The hotel is located in the heart of the city. The Layout of hotel is such that rooms are of different sizes and orientations. Some rooms are too big and some are average or smaller in size. The hotel staff is quite courteous and caring.

The hotel is away from the centre of town. Rooms are clean and a decent size. Food had a choice of buffet or a la carte. Service reasonable but no frills. A good base if you are not spending too much time in the hotel as very dark bar and only two beds around the pool.

I've stayed quite a few times at My Fortune. Except for one stay, where the service was sub-par, my experience has been uniformly good. The rooms are clean and well maintained. The service staff are uniformly friendly and courteous. The food, including the buffet breakfast, is always excellent (Mr. Roshan, chef at breakfast, does a wonderful job of personalizing food...

We stayed as a Family at the My Fortune Chennai and reserved a Fortune Club Exclusive Double Room. It had a Living Room, a Separate Bedroom and a Bathroom with a Dressing room attached. Spacious and relaxing! The staff were very friendly and the Room-inclusive breakfast served at My Cafe was very good - especially the South Indian dishes. The... More

Stayed for almost a week on business as all of the other top hotels in Chennai were booked out (learning to book earlier next time!). It was a mixed experience. The room was very spacious with a living area, separate bedroom and then bathroom. Top marks for space. But, the cleanliness, particularly of the bathroom was under par, and unfortunately... More

Stayed at the My fortune on business in Chennai - charming service - clean comfortable rooms and fast internet - what more can you ask for. The spagetti alfredo on the room service menu was so good that I had it twice in my stay. The upper rooms were quiet - very important for a good nights sleep with all... More

Well,I read about some of the poor reviews on this site about this hotel, when it changed from SHeraton CHola to My Fortune. I beg to differ from them though. A hotel very nicely located with a nice shape in plan and elevation. Rooms are bigger compared to other hotels. Hotel staff behaviour really nice. It appears though that the... More
