- The Tirumala Offline room allotment counter is located at the CRO Office in Tirumala.
- Counter Timings: 6 AM – 10 PM (Better to reach before 9 PM). Sometimes due to heavy rush counters may get closed early as well after issuing the waitlist. As per the current rush, you would be able to get rooms only when you reach the counter early in the morning like 5 or 6 AM.
- The room will be allotted only for 1 day, an extension is possible but request pilgrims to vacate once you had darshan so that other pilgrims will have a chance to stay in Tirumala at least for 1 day.
- Aadhar ID proof should be shown at the Counter. Your Face will be scanned at the counter.
- After registering, you will be provided with a room allotment number. You will be put on a waitlist.
- Once someone vacates a room that will be allotted to the person next in the waitlist. So allotment automatically happens when any room is available.

- After receiving the SMS, You need to report at the respective cottage reception within 30 minutes, to check in to the room. Else room will not be allotted.

To curb the illegal room bookings and ensure the normal public gets more rooms, TTD had introduced Facial recognition for room allotment, so that a person can get only 1 room in Tirumala within 30 days. This helped in avoiding agents blocking rooms.
Are There Any Agents To Book Tirumala Rooms In Advance?
Pilgrims might be desperately looking for rooms in Tirumala, this has become a boon for agents who are operating illegally in Tirumala and charging very huge amounts from pilgrims. Also, an agent can get only 1 room within 30 days as facial recognition is implemented these days, so there is no guarantee that he can get a room.
Hence we suggest to avoid approaching agents. You might get cheated or he may say that he was not able to get a room after you reach Tirumala. So, don’t believe them unless it’s an online booking in advance.
We suggest pilgrims to directly book rooms by themselves online or try to get them offline or try to book rooms in Tirupati.
