Lots of them. Brigade Road and areas around it (MG Road <- obligatory "named after Mahatma Gandhi" main road in most indian cities, Residency Road, Lavelle Road etc) are the main commercial areas in BLR.

The new BLR airport is way too far away to have anything but some resort hotels (expensive ones) within 15..20 km of it. Your best bet is to grit your teeth and stay in the lounge if it is open [it should be - and the new airport is reportedly rather nicer than the ugly old dump the old BLR airport was]
