Trident Chennai Hotel

Out in the gardens, The Trident Spa offers treatments inspired by Ayurvedic medicine and international techniques, including deeply relaxing, aromatic steam baths. Enjoy a soak in the large pool surrounded by banana-yellow loungers and at the Arcot Bar, let the in-house mixologist whip up an original cocktail to sip. Cinnamon is where you'll find the breakfast buffet beside a tranquil pond and Samudra serves East coast specialities in an elegant dining room, complete with a tropical fish tank.

With unfussy, honey-coloured furnishings, The Trident has a range of rooms and suites. The rooms combine modern and minimalist aesthetics with hand-crafted furniture and local paintings. Each room/suite comes with a king-size bed, minibar, tea and coffee facilities, a writing desk and en-suite bathroom. Premier Suites have a living area with views over the garden and the Presidential Suite comes with a lounge and dining area. Certain suites also have access to the Trident Club, where you can enjoy cocktail hours and high tea.
