Top hotels in Muttukadu
MGM Beach Resorts
Generally a great value and a satisfying hotel experience. Only bit of irritation was that I could not get an Uber to come directly to the property for pick up. Instead, I had to walk about 300 m to a pickup location. Not necessarily the fault of the hotel but it was irritating.

Radisson Blu Hotel & Suites GRT Chennai
1. Room was excellent. Enjoyed it! 2. Staff and service - okay, but not excellent. 3. Number of onsite restaurants was limited. But menu choice in those restaurants was great. 4. Very close to the airport. Airport transfer was comfortable. 5. Lobby space seemed small and congested.
