Hotel Regal

Hotel Regal is a budget two-star hotel in the Abids market district of central Hyderabad, Telangana. Abids is the city's traditional commercial centre, a dense grid of shops selling books, textiles, electronics, jewellery and household goods, and it was developed as a retail district in the Nizam era. The address is given only as Abids, so guests should confirm the exact street and directions with the property before arrival. The neighbourhood is close to Nampally railway station and metro, the Koti and Sultan Bazaar markets, the Public Gardens and the State Museum. The Old City, including Charminar and Laad Bazaar, is reachable by a short cab or auto ride, with time varying by traffic. Listed rates of roughly INR 1,300 to 2,500 per night make it an inexpensive stay. Room types include Standard Rooms and Deluxe Rooms, air-conditioned and with wifi. No restaurant, pool, spa or gym is listed, so guests typically eat in the surrounding streets, where inexpensive restaurants, sweet shops, Irani cafes and street vendors serve biryani, tiffin, chai and snacks. The clientele is mostly domestic and includes shoppers, business travellers, families and budget visitors who want a central base. The district is busy and noisy for much of the day and evening, with heavy traffic and limited parking, so guests who value quiet may wish to request an upper-floor room away from the road. It is best suited to travellers who enjoy walking through markets and want to stay close to public transport rather than pay for hotel facilities. As with any budget hotel, checking recent reviews, confirming inclusions such as breakfast, and carrying photo identification for check-in are recommended.
