Frequently Asked Questions
Which Bangalore hotels are pet-friendly?
Two properties on this list allow pets. Four Seasons Hotel Bengaluru at Embassy ONE (H6) allows pets with charges that may apply — it’s the only 5-star pet-friendly option. HomeSlice Sarjapur (H17) also allows pets on request with possible charges. Olive Service Apartments BTM Layout (H18) allows pets on request as well. For any of these, confirm the fees directly with the property before booking.
Which hotels in Bangalore offer free cancellation?
All properties on this list have cancellation policies that vary by room type and booking date. The Oberoi Bengaluru, The Ritz-Carlton, and Conrad Bengaluru typically offer flexible cancellation on standard rates, but you must check the specific conditions for your selected room option before confirming. Properties like Townhouse Ecity Inn (cash only) and Spektrum Hotel may have stricter terms. Always review the cancellation policy on your booking screen before paying.
Which Bangalore hotel has the best location score?
Woke HSR Layout (H13) leads with a location score of 9.7/10 — the highest on this list. It’s in HSR Layout, close to The Forum, Koramangala. The Oberoi Bengaluru and The Ritz-Carlton follow closely with 9.6 and 9.8 location scores respectively, both on MG Road and Residency Road in the central shopping district.
Can unmarried couples stay at these Bangalore hotels?
Policies vary significantly. FabHotel Greenwood Xpress Inn (H4) and The Hosteller Indiranagar (H12) explicitly welcome unmarried couples. Conrad Bengaluru (H9) allows unmarried couples with valid photo ID. Olive Hotel Millers Road (H11), Wandr Hotel HSR (H15), Olive Service Apartments BTM (H18), and Hoodo Zoe Hebbal (H20) are also couple-friendly. However, Spektrum Hotel Airport (H8) does not accommodate unmarried couples, and Townhouse HSR Layout (H19) requires a marriage certificate for all couples.
What’s the best time to visit Bangalore for affordable hotel deals?
Bangalore’s peak season runs from October to February when the weather is mild. For the best hotel deals, consider visiting during the monsoon months (June-September) or summer (March-May). Many properties like The Oberoi and Holiday Inn Racecourse offer reduced rates during these periods. Weekday stays (Monday-Thursday) are generally cheaper than weekends across all 20 properties on this list.
How far are these hotels from Kempegowda International Airport?
All properties are approximately 28 km from Kempegowda International Airport (BLR). Spektrum Hotel (H8) is the closest, located near the airport in Shettigere Village — ideal for layovers.

Spektrum offers an airport shuttle at INR 700 per way.
