Choose central convenience and direct airport Metro over neighborhood charm. Central journeys, direct airport Metro and a solid hotel showing outweigh traffic-heavy surroundings, limited doorstep attractions and weaker value.
Anna Salai, still commonly called Mount Road, is the practical answer when you want Chennai’s main transport spine rather than a self-contained sightseeing neighborhood. Thousand Lights Mosque provides a local landmark, Express Avenue is nearby, and the Blue Line makes airport journeys straightforward. A stay close to a station entrance is more useful than a broadly central address.
This is not my first choice for aimless wandering: the main road connects destinations better than it creates an enjoyable neighborhood walk. Check which side of Anna Salai your accommodation occupies and how you reach the station. Stay here for a short, transport-led visit; skip it if atmosphere outside the door is your main priority.

Cheaper K11 Express supplies location and helpful staff; Taj Club House adds a rooftop pool, spa, gym and several dining venues. Taj Connemara costs more again for heritage character and particularly thoughtful service, not cutting-edge interiors. These upgrades are less worthwhile for a brief appointment trip with little hotel time. Typical rates with Axel here run from $18 a night at K11 Express - Opp Express Avenue to $126 at The Park Chennai (last 30 days).
