Mirrored cupboards, in-room tea/coffee sets and splashes of colour make the GRT's smart modern rooms pretty characterful for Vellore. The free wi-fi, upscale multicuisine Gingee Restaurant and 24-hour cafe are extra bonuses. It's 1.5km north of central Vellore, just off the Chennai–Bengaluru road (and surprisingly not too noisy). Look for big online discounts.
