We enjoyed a delightful 9-day stay in Footprint B & B. Our high expectations of Footprint, based on reviews in this forum, were fully met. The premises are impeccably maintained and there is a friendly, welcoming atmosphere which can not possibly be achieved in big hotels or even in so-called boutique hotels. The location is excellent, with easy access to... More

The place itself is a bit tricky to find, but it's worth it. The location is pretty central although there doesn't seem to be a truly central place in Chennai. It's around 15 mins by taxi from Ft George and relatively close to many other attractions like St Thomas Church and some of the nice temples. The staff is very... More

My colleagues and I spent almost a month in Chennai over two trips in October and November 2011. I would not travel to Chennai by choice and was reluctant to even for work. India is hard - Chennai I believe is easier than Mumbai - but still, I couldn't wait to leave India. The people I liked, the living conditions... More

This is a beautifully located (just far enough from crowded areas) right behind the Park-Sheraton Hotel on a leafy residential street. The rooms are lovely, even though we crammed 3 adults into one room. Breakfast is excellent, but mostly, the service from the owner and her staff was exemplary. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. More

After seeing what money could buy in other parts of India this was an incredible surprise. It is a guesthouse not a home stay however Rucha the manager lives upstairs and one of the staff is here at all times. This is what we would consider a nice place to stay by Aussie standards! Our room is quite large with... More

Friendly staff, excellent service, clean and modern rooms and a central location. The staff could not do enough to ensure our comfort. I have no hesitation in recommending footprints to anyone wishing to stay in Chennai. A great place to escape from the hustle and bustle of Chennai. A great thai resturant just down the road too.

Myself and my family have been regulars to Foot Print due to various reasons. It is a simple place with all the facilities. The management and the staff add value to their product. Staff is wonderful and attentive. I must be frank enough to say it is one of the safest places to stay in Chennai. Room rates are affordable... More

I stayed at the Footprint for a month while I was in Chennai for work. Upon arriving we were warmly greeted by the caretaker (because the owner was out of town at the time) and checking in was a breeze. The accommodations were amazing! As soon as you walk in you feel calm and at peace, which was extremely important... More

I've traveled to Chennai many times for visiting family and this time I was there for business. After long work days in Chennai, Footprint B&B was a haven to espcape to. Between the amazing service, clean rooms and serene atmosphere to relax in we felt very comfortable and at home. The breakfast each morning was delicious and the staff is... More
