As of March 2026, Tamil Nadu—especially Chennai—is facing a significant disruption in commercial LPG cylinder supplies. Geopolitical tensions in West Asia have impacted global supply chains, leading many local hotels and restaurants to scale back their menus or temporarily close their doors. While the government is working on a war footing to prioritize domestic LPG for households, the hospitality sector is feeling the heat.
At Kolam Serviced Apartment, we believe in turning challenges into opportunities for our guests.
The Kolam Advantage: Independence and Stability
While many traditional hotels are struggling to keep their kitchens running, Kolam offers a unique, self-sufficient alternative:
- Your Personal Kitchen: We provide fully equipped kitchenettes in every apartment. Our guests aren’t dependent on hotel kitchen schedules or limited menus. You have the power to cook what you want, when you want.
- The Best of Local Living: We do not provide food services, which is actually an advantage right now! By staying with us, you aren’t tied to a single source of meals. You can explore local markets or use delivery apps to source fresh ingredients, bypassing the “limited menu” issues currently hitting major hotel chains.
- Induction-Ready Living: To ensure your stay remains unaffected by gas supply fluctuations, we encourage the use of modern induction cooktops. It’s a clean, efficient, and reliable way to stay powered up while the state navigates the gas shortage.
In a time of uncertainty, choose the freedom of a serviced stay. At Kolam, you’re not just a guest; you’re in control of your own home-away-from-home
