Shaikpet Hotel Deals
Hyderabad Marriott Hotel & Convention Centre
The hotel is situated very close to Husein Sagar (a lake with stale water). As soon as you step out, you can not avoid breathing in bad smell and polluted air. The breakfast was no good and very expensive. Not much choice or quality. Very little western choices.

Novotel Hyderabad Airport Hotel
The hotel was good, staff was friendly. Unfortunately I returned back to London covered in bed bug bites and I can only link this to having stayed at this place.
