We had the Deluxe Room on the 8th floor and were upgraded to a Sea View from the balcony and a pool view from the other large window. The room was larger than the 650 sqft advertised! The bathroom was spectacular with the toilet enclosed by a door from the rest of the bathroom. The pool was also spectacular since it's a 35m infinity pool. One fellow swimmer told me that he's a Chennai resident who has a membership to the pool since Leela's pool is one of the best in all Chennai! The breakfast buffet is quite good and was included in my stay. I had dinner at China XO and enjoyed the vegetarian stir fry.
