Intercontinental Hotel & Resorts Hotels in Kanchipuram

Really enjoyed my stay! The hotel felt a little bit dated but the excellent service and food more than made up for it. We had a warm welcome from Amit, Paul, Suresh, Yaneshi, Raj and another concierge team member who I unfortunately did not get the name of (he gave an excellent meal recommendation for our day out to Mahabalipuram where we had the best aloo gobi!). On our first day, we had lunch at The Melting Pot, and had an amazing prawn curry that I'm still thinking about till today. We heard of the excellent lunch buffet deal but unfortunately, did not have time or room in our stomachs to enjoy it. Had a spa treatment which was relaxing, and then wanted to have dinner at Kokkomo but unfortunately the weather was not agreeable. We brought it back to our room instead. Sleep was great through the stay! The room was spacious and comfortable. We also enjoyed playing carrom in the rec centre, which was a little small but sufficient. The hotel also does a daily tea time that is complimentary for hotel guests which was lovely. The team assisted with arranging for a driver for a half day tour of Mahabalipuram. Velu was absolutely lovely and brought us to the key sights as well as the restaurant which was recommended. We got to talking, and he asked if we would be interested in bringing home spices, so he created this extremely fun experience for us, where he bought the various spices and brought us to the grinder's. It was completely unplanned and spontaneous, but a really special experience that honestly made our trip! Through the stay, we found the team to be authentic and warm. They truly made the stay an amazing memory. The hotel does need a little update, but the team alone is well-worth the visit!
