Aitken Spence Hotels Turyaa Chennai amongst top 5-star properties there

Turyaa Chennai, owned and operated by Aitken Spence Hotels, has successfully met criteria for obtaining '5- Star Deluxe' classification, ranking it as one of five hotels in Chennai to have obtained this highly sought after accreditation.

Turyaa Chennai now joins Hilton Chennai, Hyatt Regency Chennai, ITC Grand Chola Chennai and Park Hyatt Chennai in the '5-Star Deluxe' category segment, the Colombo-based group said in a media release.

The 140-room property situated in the IT corridor of Chennai minutes away from the bustling city centre is recognised as one of the best new hotels in the city offering the perfect amalgamation of business and leisure. Situated 20 minutes away from the international airport, the hotel is the ideal location for the business travellers, the ardent shopper or cultural holiday seeker. With the recent classification status obtained by the property, Turyaa Chennai is now the only 5-star deluxe property in the IT corridor.

Aitken Spence Hotels, the first Sri Lankan hotel operator to enter the Maldives (1993), India (2007) and Oman (2009) broke new ground once again by being the first Sri Lankan company to own and operate a 5- star deluxe property in neighbouring India.

"Turyaa Chennai receiving this classification is no doubt a reflection of the hard work and dedication put in by the team. Service excellence will remain our top priority as we continue strengthening and expanding our tourism portfolio in the region," said Susith Jayawickrama, Joint Managing Director, Aitken Spence Hotels.
