Good size room. Comfortable bed. Nice pool. Close to sites. Many tuk tuks at the gate to get around. Breakfast was plentiful with Indian dishes but you can still have toast and fruits etc.
I enjoyed the German bakery…

Questions about Madras Chronicle Bay Resort & Spa

Does Madras Chronicle Bay Resort & Spa allow pets?

No — the property states that pets are not allowed.

Is there parking at Madras Chronicle Bay Resort & Spa?

Parking is listed among the property's facilities. Whether it's free and whether a space can be reserved varies, so we check it against your dates rather than promise it here.

Does Madras Chronicle Bay Resort & Spa have wheelchair accessible rooms?

The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.

Can I check in late at Madras Chronicle Bay Resort & Spa?

The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.

How do I book Madras Chronicle Bay Resort & Spa?

Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
