Guys got to know that a place called Manjakutta is about 15mins drive from Madhapur with decent hotels in the price range of 500-700 per night(considering its low season, i am assuming these are good hotels with low prices due to seasonality). How is the area guys? Is it a decent place to stay?

I don't know of anyone apart from hertz giving self drive cars.

But I strongly urge you to reconsider driving yourself as Hyderabadi traffic is CHAOS.

I think all the people say the same about their cities.

But after the T-BHPians /X-BHPians who come to Hyderabad get the shock of their life.

PM other who came to hyderabad recently to understand the traffic situation here.
blackpearl, rocksterraghu, himanshu, to name a few.

Guys managed to find 2 hotels in Panjagutta area within my budget as somebody recommended me that area and other places were very expensive.
HYD boys please tell me is that area good in terms of crowd and access to other tourist spots?

panjagutta is almost like the heart of the town. most of the offices are located around it.

will take u a min of 20 mins in avg traffic conditions to reach hitec city.

which hotel in panjagutta? the best in that place is a hotel called "orange transit house"


also ricks are the best option for you to roam about in hyd.

1st week of may is hot. Unlike delhi where you get the "Lu- Hot air". Here in Hyd, its quite dry and does get quite hot. But, since i know delhi weather well, i would say Hyd summer is much better than Delhi summer.

Also, Panjagutta is the right place to stay, it's like in between hitec city and other important locations of the city. Go for it.

If you need any other information, feel free to PM and i can share my mobile number and you can call me for any other information.

Your welcome!!! NIMS area is a mad house Neverthless, its the heart of the city. Stick to it. Also, the famous Central Mall is just a few feet away and you can also catch your favorite movie at PVR ( located inside the mall).

Btw, which company you will be meeting in Hitec city?
