lowing are all in Tirupathi.
Hotel Mamata Lodge
( 2225873; 1st fl, 170 TP Area; s/d/tr/q ?250/300/400/500) A friendly, spick-and-span cheapie. Some

RAILWAY RETIRING ROOM $
Railway Retiring Rooms
(dm/r from ?75/225, with AC ?225/450) The station retiring rooms are super value.
Hotel Annapurna
( 2250666; Nethaji Rd; r without/with AC ?1236/1911; ) Rooms at the convenient and well-organ-
ised Annapurna are clean and pink. Since it's on a corner across from the train station,
nonair-con front rooms can be noisy, but air-con rooms are not as good-value. Its veg res-
taurant (mains ?100 to ?175) has fresh juices and excellent food.

Minerva Grand
ANDHRA $$
( 6688888; www.minervagrand.com ; Renigunta Rd; mains & meals ?130-185, s/d with AC from ?3147/3822;
7am-11.30pm; ) The dining room here is contemporary and somewhat cold - the Minerva
is part of a new generation of sleek properties in town - but it's warmed up by the exquis-
ite meals: dish after dish of Andhra food done good and right. Follow it with the dynamite
filter coffee. The rooms here are the best in town.
Maya
(Bhimas Deluxe Hotel; 2225521; bhimasdeluxe@rediffmail.com ; G Car St; meals & mains ?135-190, r with AC
?1855-2023; 6am-10pm) Great veg meals in the basement of the Bhimas Deluxe, which also
has good-value rooms (some without windows: beware) near the train station. Not to be
confused with Bhimas Hotel.
