All Accommodations reserved by organising committee are filled.  Please do not call about accommodation at Peddapuram & Samalkot.

Accommodation Advisory for Players and Accompanying Persons of National School Chess Championships-2025:

It has come to our attention that many players are unaware of the accommodation facilities available in the Peddapuram and Samalkot areas and are instead booking hotels in Kakinada. While the organizing committee is providing transportation from designated points in Kakinada, we strongly recommend booking accommodations in Peddapuram or Samalkot to avoid the daily 30-minute journey to and from the venue.

Additionally, players staying in Kakinada must arrange their own transport to reach the designated pick-up points for the buses, which will depart only when fully occupied. To ease the burden of travel and ensure convenience, accommodations closer to the venue have been identified and summarized below.
