Frequently asked questions

Good to know before you book. Can’t find your answer? Call or WhatsApp the host, we’re happy to help.

How far is Arcade Stay Inn from the railway station and bus stand?

We are about 500 m from Tirupati Railway Station and just 200 m from the RTC Central Bus Stand, a short walk from either, which makes late-night and early-morning arrivals easy.

How do I get to Tirumala for darshan?

Tirumala is about 22 km uphill (~45–60 minutes by road). Share-autos, APSRTC buses and taxis run from the nearby bus stand. Your host can help you plan transport and advise on darshan timing.

Do you have both AC and Non-AC rooms?

Yes, our Delux, Executive and Family Suite rooms are available in AC and Non-AC. See Rooms & Tariff to compare, or message us for current availability.

What are the check-in and check-out times?

Like most hotels in Tirupati, we follow a 24-hour format: your room is yours for a full 24 hours from the time you check in, so an early-morning or late-night arrival still gets a complete day’s stay. See our House Rules & Policies for details.

Is parking available?

Yes, parking is available on site. Let us know your vehicle in advance for larger groups.

What is the cancellation policy?

Free cancellation up to 48 hours before check-in (full refund). Within 48 hours or a no-show, the first night is charged, and festival or peak-season bookings may have stricter terms. Full details are on our House Rules & Policies page.

Is the homestay suitable for elderly devotees?

Yes. We offer ground-floor rooms / lift access, short walks to transport, and personal help for elderly and differently-abled guests travelling for darshan.

Is food available nearby?

We don’t serve food at the property, but there are vegetarian restaurants and tiffin centres within walking distance, and we’re happy to point you to trusted options.

How do I get the best price?

Book direct with us, by phone, WhatsApp or the enquiry form, for the best available rate and no booking fee.
