ITC GRAND CHOLA CHENNAI INDIA
Itc Grand Chola Chennai
INDIA

Remarkably paying palatial tribute to India’s greatest empires, ITC Grand Chola overlooks the city of Chennai. ITC Grand Chola graciously embodies the high standards of Indian hospitality balanced with elegance. The inspiration for the design of the Chola stems from a magnificent time in history creating a luxurious feel, called the India’s Golden Era in a modern retelling – this five-star luxury business hotel’s three separate wings feature a set of luxurious serviced apartments with the largest banquet and exhibition spaces in the country, a sprawling retail arcade, spectacular recreational facilities, fine dining and accommodation that is truly spectacular. The Cholas dynasty is the greatest maritime power to have arisen in the region of South Asia. In its grandeur and royalty, splendid columns and stairways, granite carvings and vast spaces, ITC Grand Chola is an inspired rendition of the vision of the Great Masters.
