I am sure there have been situations in the past where crews have had disturbed sleep and then got on the crew bus feeling ok....however, other factors between hotel and cockpit can increase fatigue levels to a point where a no-fly decision has to be made.

Getting stuck in traffic on the way, the heat of a place like DEL, stress, pre-flight workload.......the list is endless.
