Coimbatore (Tamil Nadu)

Hotels & Resorts in Coimbatore

Coimbatore is the second largest city in Tamil Nadu. As it is exposed to the Palghat gap of Western Ghats it enjoys a salubrious climate, this has attracted a large number of textile mills to this region. For the same reason the city is called 'poor man's Ooty'.

There are more than 25,000 small, medium, large and tiny industries and textile mills. No wonder it is rightly called the Manchester of South India. Coimbatore is also famous for the manufacture of motor pump sets and varied engineering goods, due to which it has earned the title " Detroit of the South". 

Coimbatore, the entrepreneur's dream, remains a city where age-old customs survive, where family bonds are strong and where fusion of tradition and modernity remain the secret of the city's success.
