STAY

With Coimbatore on the textile and industrial map, you have non-residents flooding in to cut deals, attend conferences or just take a slice of India. For business visitors on short trips, budget hotels are a smarter option. These places offer no-frills, be it room service or conference facilities. But still, more than offer what you really need: neat and clean accommodation. The rooms have en-suite bathrooms and a pay telephone in the common areas. The four-star and five-star hotels offer the best that you have come to expect from them. All of this will make Coimbatore a true home away from home.
