Your Perfect Room

✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026

Before you check in to Hotel Nahar, here's what to know about choosing the right room.

Best rooms to request

Request a room on the higher floors (4th floor and above) as they are likely to be quieter due to being farther from the road. Considering the hotel is in Ooty, a hill station in India, the views from the higher floors might be obstructed by trees or other buildings.

⚠️

Rooms to avoid

Amenities like the lift, service entrance, and possibly the bar might be located on lower floors, so rooms on these floors might experience more noise. However, specific room numbers are not provided in the data, so it's hard to pinpoint exact rooms to avoid.

🪟

Best views

Since the hotel's address is not specified beyond Ooty, it's hard to determine the exact view options. However, as a general rule, higher floors in a hilly area like Ooty might offer better views of the surrounding landscape.

😴

Quietest floors

4th floor and above

🔊 Noise notes

Guests may experience street noise, especially if they are on a lower floor, due to the hotel's location in Ooty.

Insider tips

If you're driving to the hotel, be prepared for potentially steep roads and limited parking spaces. It's a good idea to arrive early to secure a spot. Consider requesting a room with a window that faces the interior of the hotel or the surrounding hills to minimize the impact of street noise.

How to request your preferred room:
  1. Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
  2. Add a note in your booking comments field
  3. Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

🚂
Nilgiri Mountain Railway (Toy Train) ₹136

Mettupalayam Railway Station → Ooty Railway Station

270 min · 1 daily (departs 7:10 AM) · Arrives Ooty ~12:20 PM

💡 Book class CC (Chair Car) online 30 days ahead on IRCTC — this steam train sells out fast. The final climb from Coonoor to Ooty is the most scenic. From Ooty station, it's a steep 15-min walk or ₹100 autorickshaw to Savoy.

Coimbatore (Gandhipuram Stand) → Ooty Bus Stand

210 min · Every 30 min (6 AM - 6 PM) · Roughly 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM

💡 These Mahindra Sumos seat 7-8 people and leave once full. Cheaper than private taxi but bumpy — negotiate a seat next to the driver for legroom. Exit at Ooty stand, then walk or take a shared auto to Savoy.

🚕
Coimbatore Airport Prepaid Taxi ₹2500

Coimbatore International Airport (CJB) → Savoy Hotel, Ooty

180 min · On demand · 24 hours

💡 Book a prepaid taxi from the kiosk inside the arrivals hall to avoid haggling. The drive via NH 181 and the Kalhatty Ghat road is shorter but winding — carry motion sickness pills if you need them.

Mettupalayam Bus Stand → Ooty Bus Stand

150 min · Every 20-30 minutes · 6:00 AM to 8:00 PM
