Chennai info help
Hi All,
I wonder if there are any QL members out there who come from Chennai? I need help desperately as I will be taking my aunt for surgery to Apollo hospital in Chennai and need to sort out accomodation as we will be there for a month at the very least.
We are looking for short-let apartments that are close by the hospital, something that is clean and has all modcons (A/C, western toilet, lifts etc) but also affordable.
The hospitals recommendations are the 5star hotels which don't really fit into what we need or can afford long term.
If you have any information about the hospital, apartments or Chennai itself I would really appreciate it. Also, what is the weather like there in April/May?
Many thanks.
April /May is summer time there.. so its going to be hot.. Id rather say Humid.. Alternatively there are Service Apartments that give u a good deal if your staying there for a month or so.
Second of all.. South India is a place where most of the cash crops are grown.. so you should always find fresh vegetables and Flesh that are frozen foods here.
About hygeine.. choose the kind that fits your bill. Medical and expenses are also not that high.. If your indian and have a Medical Insurance.. most of it should be take care
What surgery is she going to undergo?
Is it a bypass?

Wow!!
Thank you so much to all you guys who replied. I got more info here than on a google search.
Still haven't had a chance to sift through the info, will do so and let you know where we decide to go.
The suggestion of staying at a hotel initially is a good one too, will consider that.
Many thanks once again and i"m afraid I'll be on here asking for more advice again.
I agree with the suggestion to stay initially with the one suggested by the hotel and then look around and find the suitable one. Reg Temp around this time, it will be hot and humid but late evenings become genrally cool due to sea breeze.
with Apollo referred HOTEL for few days. Once you reach there call the above list, and visit and finalise as per your budget and taste.

There are agents who can help you. but be sure that they dont charge
you too much. Especially when they see a foreigner, figures multiply.
There are houses you can rent near to appolo hospital. since you need it for a month this will work out cheap
how soon are you leaving....i will try my best to get you some contact numbers.
cheers
YOU DONT KNOW ME, DONT EVEN TRY !!!
