Hardly two minutes walk from Coimbatore Railway Junction is this small road that winds its way upto Arts College Road, where it ends at Cheran Towers (one of the hotspots in Coimbatore for shopping).  Well, you may ask, what is so special on this road?

Geetha Hall Road is your one-stop halt for boarding and lodging, for all kinds of budgets and tastes. From budget accommodation to business-class accommodation ranging from Rs.80/- to Rs. 400/- for a single room, this is the place for you to stay if you want ‘choice’. There's plenty of it.  Right from hotels that go way back to thirty or forty years ago to newly-built, swank business-class hotels.

In the top-end range for the business traveller who is looking at economical prices and good service are the newly built hotels like Hotel Naveen, which is just over a year old, Hotel Vaidurya, Park Inn and Hotel Vinayak.  They offer facilities like Permit rooms, in-house multi-cuisine restaurants, conference halls, travel desk, doctor on call, safe deposit lockers.... all within a tariff range between RS 199/- and RS 900/-.

At the other end of the spectrum are the lodges offering dormitories for 20 to 100 people for about RS 200/- per day.  There are also lodges for the economy end of business travellers like Hotel Hema, Hotel Aiba Regency, Hotel Raamu’s which offer rock bottom tariff ranging between RS 80/- for a single room upto RS 500/- for a deluxe room.
