I have joined this forum as I feel I would get the best suggestions for hotels in Coimbatore near the airport according to my requirements.

Hello, welcome to the forum! (Images from SnapMeUp, Faheem, Faheem and Faheem) Overview Coimbatore is a bustling city in Tamil Nadu, considered as the second largest city after its capital. Coimbatore is a rare mixture of an urbanised city, blended with subtle greenery and developing industries. Due to its elevation and location, surrounded by the Western Ghats, the city has very pleasant climate all-year round, except during peak summer season. The main transportation hub for flights locally and internationally is the Coimbatore International Airport, located in Peelamedu, about 11 kilometres from the centre of the city. In this guide, we would highlight the best three-star hotels that are near the Coimbatore International Airport. Best Three-Star Hotels in Coimbatore Near Airport (Under Rs. 2,800/Night) 1.
