Airport Guide
Compare 4 airports near Hyderabad
For most travelers, Rajiv Gandhi International Airport (HYD) is the only practical choice directly serving the city center of Hyderabad. It provides seamless international and domestic connectivity with efficient transport options like the Pushpak bus and various taxi services. The remaining airports are not in Hyderabad at all and require significant travel time to reach the city. Bidar Airport (IXX) serves the city of Bidar, Kalaburagi Airport (GBI) serves Kalaburagi, and Kurnool Airport (KJB) serves Kurnool. These regional hubs only make sense if your itinerary involves spending time in those specific districts or if you have found exceptionally low-fare flights that offset the high cost and duration of multi-hour road or rail transfers. Travelers arriving at these distant airports should prioritize private taxi bookings to avoid the complexities of public transport transfers, which are often limited or require multiple legs. Always allow extra time for traffic when traveling between these neighboring cities and the Hyderabad metropolitan area.

I loved the fact that I was greeted with a smile and an amazing check in and check out service. The only issue was that the breakfast service did not give me a 5 star feeling with people running around and inadequate places to sit. Stood there for 30 mins to find a seat and everyone was running everywhere. Inspite of paying for the breakfast I did not go the remaining nights.
Apart from this everything was amazing and perfectFromUS$64

We booked a room with family of 3 members for 1 night.
Room was good clean and the service was good.
Only 2 things i can suggest is 1.)hotel can provide little higher rooms for families as there is sound coming into the rooms when parties are going on.
2.) Check in can be little but faster.
But rest of all the things are top standard👍FromUS$115

Toilet bowl had mosquitoes. Bed was not properly made .
Room cards were deactivated when we returned from our shopping n we had to go all the way down to get it fixed. When asked why this happened , they said we were out for too long n too far from hotel. . Supposed to b a luxury business hotel but there were kids running ***** the corridor past midnight.
Food at the Chill restaurant was good. We had mutton biryani there.
Expected more from a 5 star hotel.FromUS$63

Check in was good, fast & efficient
Room was clean but room refrigerator was not even cold , can’t even have a cold drink Bottle water was given which is good
Breakfast was 80% indian food probably catering for local or indian guests not international guests so had mainly toast , fruits & eggs
Service staff tends to forget your orders hence need to be repeated or told a couple of times
Could have improved on it

Lovely old hotel, much nicer than the rather charmless new places opening up.
