Most of our guests are GATE candidates, PhD interview candidates and admission visitors. We keep quiet hours (11 PM – 7 AM), Wi-Fi that holds up for revision, and can arrange early breakfast on request. See our GATE exam stay guide.

About 8 km — 25–35 minutes by cab depending on traffic. We allow late-night check-in, so Zest Stays works well as a transit stop. More in our airport transit guide.

Check-in from 12:00 noon, check-out by 11:00 AM. Early check-in and late check-out are possible subject to availability — message us on WhatsApp.
