I have stayed at the residency, it is definitely worth the 2000+ rate. The bar in the hotel is very lively. When it closes around 11.30 PM, you head to the Dublin bar at the Park Sheraton, open til 2 AM. Lots of people and very lively.

The restaurant in the Residency is also very good and their buffet is very good.

Enjoy

I've stayed at the President. It's fine. The room I was in was a bit run down for the price, but I have found that trend to be common in Chennai.
