Location matters: Staying in central areas like near Police Bazaar or M.G. Road helps you access markets, cafes and transport easily.

  • Check amenities: Even budget hotels should have clean linens, hot water, good location and preferably wifi. Some budget ones may cut back on extras.

  • Booking ahead: Especially in peak travel season, budget rooms fill up or rates go up.

  • Female traveller note: Since you’re female, check reviews for safety, location lighting, accessibility and staff responsiveness. Staying in well-lit, central areas is a plus.
