Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Condor Daffodils, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on a higher floor (above 5th floor) to minimize street noise from the main road. Considering the hotel's 3-star rating and location in Thiruvananthapuram, it's likely that the rooms on the lower floors may have more noise from the surrounding area.
Rooms to avoid
Rooms near the lift may be more prone to noise from guests and staff, so it's best to avoid rooms in the 1st-3rd floors, especially if you're a light sleeper.
Best views
Unfortunately, the hotel's address on Thiruvananthapuram doesn't provide any notable view options. The surrounding area is likely to be residential or commercial, so it's best to focus on the hotel's amenities and services.
Quietest floors
Floors 6-10 are likely to be quieter, as they are higher up and away from the main road noise.
🔊 Noise notes
Be prepared for some street noise from the main road outside, especially during peak hours. Additionally, the hotel's location in Thiruvananthapuram means that you may hear some sounds from the surrounding area, such as vendors or traffic.
Insider tips
1. Consider requesting a room with a balcony or a window that faces the interior of the hotel to minimize street noise. 2. Ask for a room with a concrete floor, as it's likely to be quieter than a carpeted floor.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
