Hotel Near Apollo Hospital, Greams Road, Chennai

How far is Embassy Park from Apollo Hospital?

Apollo Hospital on Greams Road is a 5 to 10 minute walk from Embassy Park. Sankara Nethralaya is also close by. For patients and families who spend long days going back and forth, that short distance is the whole point of choosing a hotel here.

Walking times are approximate, since they depend on your pace, the heat and how you are feeling. If you are unwell or tired, or travelling with an elderly relative, a short cab ride from the front desk is perfectly sensible.

What makes a hotel comfortable for a hospital stay?

Families who stay near hospitals tend to want the same things. A clean, quiet room. Air conditioning that works. Somewhere to keep medicines cool or a bottle of water close by. A place to sit and make phone calls. A reception that answers at any hour. We are a hotel, not a medical facility, and we do not give medical advice, but we can make the practical side of the visit easier.

Every room at Embassy Park has a mini fridge, a work desk, air conditioning, a tea and coffee maker, free Wi-Fi and a flat-screen TV. The whole property is smoke-free, which can matter during treatment visits.

Quiet corridors and a smoke-free building matter more than decoration when someone in the family is unwell.

Which room works for a patient and one attendant?

The Deluxe Double comes as either a queen bed or twin beds, from Rs 2,800 per night. The queen suits a couple. The twin, with two single beds, can suit a patient and an attendant who each want their own space to rest.

If a third family member is joining, the Deluxe Triple from Rs 3,500 and Luxury Triple from Rs 3,800 both have a queen bed and a single bed. The Luxury Triple is the most spacious room. Rates are per room, per night. Please reconfirm the current rate and any applicable taxes at the time of booking.

What helps on the long days between appointments?

Hospital days are mostly waiting. A hotel close by gives you somewhere to go back to, rest, freshen up and eat in your own time. Housekeeping, laundry and room service are available, which helps when you are managing several days of appointments without a chance to run errands.

Spencer Plaza and Thousand Lights Metro are within walking distance if you need to pick up something small or travel elsewhere in the city.

• Keep appointment papers and reports together on the room desk
• Use the mini fridge for water and anything your doctor says should stay cool
• Ask reception for a cab if walking feels like too much
• Plan a quiet evening, the reception works round the clock if you need anything

Can you arrive late at night or leave early in the morning?

Yes, in the sense that the reception is open 24 hours and offers VIP check-in and check-out. Standard check-in time is 2:00 PM and check-out is 12:00 PM. If you are arriving on an overnight train or an early flight and need to rest before an appointment, tell the team in advance so they can plan around it. Availability depends on the day.

Please check with the hospital for visiting rules, timings and requirements, as we cannot speak for them.

How do you prepare for a stay of several days?

Think about how the days will actually run. You will probably leave early for an appointment, wait, return, rest, and repeat. Pack comfortable clothes, a light shawl or jacket for air-conditioned hospital waiting areas, and a small bag for reports and papers. Bring chargers for every device.

Tell the hotel how many nights you expect to need, and be honest about uncertainty. Treatment schedules often shift, and a flexible conversation with the reception team is better than a surprise on the day. Availability depends on the dates.

If two relatives are sharing, agree who handles which tasks. One person can manage paperwork at the work desk while the other rests. Take turns eating a proper meal outside the hospital, as long hospital days can wear everyone out.

Quiet matters. The rooms are in a smoke-free hotel, and the corridor and lobby are calm. A good night's sleep before a morning appointment is worth more than any amenity.

Remember to pack any regular prescriptions and your reports in a folder, and keep your appointment times in your phone calendar as well as on paper.

The kindest thing a hotel can do for a family in a stressful week is stay out of the way and be reliable. We aim for that, nothing grander.

How do you book a room near the hospital?
