The Auto Rickshaw charges start from 100 itself and goes much higher compared to other cities, they don't use running meter to calculate the charges. So consider using metro if you travel in Chennai.

[@TravelYatraVlog]

Yes, that's true... In Chennai auto rikshaw hardly put the meter (unlike in Mumbai). So sometimes an online cab will be cheaper than a auto😆🤫 And metro is the best option for those spots in Chennai where you have metro connectivity. Thank you 😊👍🏼

Very helpful information sir. You will be traveling a lot so want to ask you a question. I normally travel in bus or train and choose an option which will make me reach the destination in early mornings. But all hotels have a 12.00 PM check-in. How to find a 24hr check-in hotels? Or in a whole how you handle these kid of a situation as a normal traveller.

[@TravelYatraVlog]

Well, there are few ways to tackle this.. 1. Some hotel booking sites gives you an option for early check-in with additional cost or no cost. We do that. 2. Some hotels have normal check-in as well as hourly check-in options. There sometime we give a normal booking and an another hourly booking (on the same day) for three to four hours in the first half. 3. In some hotel I use to call them after booking and request them to keep a room for us for early check-in. Sometimes they provide it for free or sometimes on a chargeable basis. 4. In some cities if there are some nearby small places to visit (a zoo, or museum or park or some monument), then we use to keep the luggage in reception and use their common washroom for slight freshen-up and explore just any one nearby sightseeing place in the first half itself. 5. Some resorts have good beaches or swimming pools or attached private falls or so..., Then we sometimes spend time there or go to the pool. 6. Sometime we try to emotionally conveience then by saying that we have a small kid with us, so please try to do something 😂😂 So that's how we manage if we have an early arrival and hotel check-in is at afternoon time.. Thank you 😊👍🏼

[@jayantbhat8780]

Very very good video, truly informative and helpful. I will be travelling in Tamil Nadu from 7th September to 18th September, I'm single and don't want to spend more money on stay. Rs.300/400 is ok. My places are Chennai Egmore, Trichy, Kodaikanal Road, Madurai, Nagarkoil and Kanyakumari. Please help.

[@TravelYatraVlog]

Hi Jayant, If you are not concerned about amenities and other features for your stay, then it's better to go for dormitory beds in hostels in every place. For Egmore I have mentioned a few places in this video itself, which are under 500 range. So you can check that. And for Madurai and all other locations, you can search in booking (dot) com or just search for some small hotels near the bus stand or railway station (which are generally not available on any online websites). So you can go there directly and get a bed for 300 to 400 rupees. Or at every place if you are travelling by train then by using your train PNR you can book accommodation in the railway station also via irctc website (if available). These irctc rooms are generally very cheap (in some locations it will cost you just 100 to 200 rupees per night) Thank you 😊👍🏼

I'm coming from Andhra by train.I don't want to see so many places in Chennai with buzy buzy schedule... On first day-Marine kingdom,Marina beach&surroundings On second day-mahabalipuram,T.Nagar shopping On third day-pondicherry tour(One day pondy trip organised by tamilnadu tourism dept).Their trip starts from tourism office at Triplicane. This is my schedule.For this,which place best suits for my hotel stay.

[@TravelYatraVlog]

Ok Suresh, For your case you can stay near triplicane... It will be near to beach, centre location, near to govt. Estate metro as well as you can board your morning pondicherry day Tour bus from there easily. (One thing I want to mention is that paying around 2000 per person and goin to Pondy just for a day in the bus tour and seeing just two to three places quickly will not be worth it) So just think of it once again. Rest all your plan within CHENNAI can be covered easily. If required DM me in my insta ID. I will try to guide you. Thank you Suresh 😊👍🏼

Yes Manish/Nikhil, both are the same. Mgr central mainly called the first 11 platforms where mail and express trains arrive and depart. And then there is a small separation after which there are 4 more platforms which is called Chennai Suburban station, from where you get only local trains to Tirutanni, Arakkonam, GPD and SPE routes...

Good video bhai👍bhai mujhe sakar netralaya ke pass kuch sahi rate hotel bataiye... Pls

[@TravelYatraVlog]

Hello Ankit, Shankar netralaya is almost in Nungambakkam which is typically one of the posh area of Chennai. So generally it's difficult to find a budget hotel there. So for you the better option is to take a hotel near the Egmore area which will be a comparatively cheaper option and from Egmore you will get plenty of buses (bus number 17), which goes directly to Shankar netralaya and it takes hardly 10 to 15 minutes by bus to reach the hospital from Egmore (You have the sharing rickshaw option too). Hope this idea will help you to get the budget hotel. Thank you 😊👍🏼

I want stay few hours in Nungaabakkam area.. Pl suggest chepest hotel

[@TravelYatraVlog]

If your plan is to just stay for few hours then I will not suggest to stay in Nungambakkam. In such a case the best option is to take a metro and go to (CMBT) and stay in the AC dormitory that I suggested in this video (if you area a male traveller or in a group of boys). Because in Nungambakkam any hotel will not be less than 1000 to 1500 rupees for even a half day of stay. Thank you 😊👍

Hello Jyoti, Sankar Netralaya is almost in the Nungambakkam area, which is a bit posh locality. So unfortunately there is no budget hotel nearby. The minimum average hotel price for staying in this area will be around 2k per night for a couple. So alternatively you can stay in Greams Road area (near Apollo hospital) where you can get many budget hotels. Or the second option is to stay near Egmore. From Egmore the hospital is hardly at 2 km distance and plenty of buses and sharing vans are available from Egmore to Sankar Netralaya. Hope this idea will help you. Thank you once again Jyoti.☺️👍

Hello Mukhtar ji, There are many Apollos all over Chennai. So you can specify your location. But the main one 8a Greams road branch, which is commonly known to 90% of outsiders. So around Greams road branch there are plenty of budget hotels. You don't even need to prebook these hotels online. I will mention some budget hotels in that area as follows:- 1. Royal Residency 2. Pearl Guest House 3. Raju guest house So if you go in the above areas, you will find only hotels, restaurants and stay options in every building. So just go and check the price and room quality and then decide your stay. (No need to book online in advance) Hope this info will help you. Thank you 😊👍

[@TravelYatraVlog]

Hi Manjusha, if you just want to freshen up and don't want to take rest or don't want to take a nap, then I will suggest that there are very good washrooms inside the airport itself (before the exit gate) so you can utilise those (free of cost). Or if you are out of airport, then there is a huge and famous newly opened mall "Aero hub". So you can go there also to use the wash areas of the mall, which are really very spacious, ultra modern and very lavish too (and it's obviously free of cost). Or you can go to airport Metro, there also you can use the wash areas and freshen up properly without any problem(it's free too). Or else just search for "SBM toilet" in Google for pay and use options in outer areas of the airport. (In all the above places, you can somehow keep your luggages also at the corner, if you are travelling solo) Or if you need a room, then you have to go for booking it as I mentioned in the video. Hope this information helps you. Thank you 😊👍🏼
