This month we went to Puri and visited few other places in Odisha. We stayed in Mahadodhi Palace. This was originally the home of the Maharaja and the architecture bears the colonial charm of the bygone era, we very much liked the interiors along with the modern facilities. The restaurant Ga reflects the theme of a local village and serves delicious local cuisine along with continental food and other north indian and south indian food. Thanks to Chef Mr HareKrishna Mohanty, for his assistance and guidence. We tried the local mutton and fish dishes which were just yummm. The British Bar is well stocked and serves some interesting cocktails. The people working here are very helpful and friendly. Our kids just loved this place and the members of Mahadodhi, they felt they were in a second home. They felt free to move about, this is a great place to stay with kids cause it is spacious with a swimming pool and just next to the sea beach. We had a wonderful time in Puri and Mahadodhi.

Its a good place to stay with beautiful Sea View. Staffs of hotels are so familiar with great hospitality. Food is hygienic. Most important part is you can feel a royal life style in this palace. My overall experience during my stay is too good.

state of the art hotel feels u r in a kings palace. room is awesome. hotel staff are friendly. food is delicious. we enjoyed a lot. if someone in puri wants a best hotel u cant get better than dis. jst a call to the reception u can get a better deal direct from the hotel

We stayed in the Cottage room with a fantastic view of the sea for two days during. Room and toilet are spacious and bright. There were many toiletries including hair oil and moisturizer, and in good quantity! The linen was very clean, and the extra bed for the third adult in the room was almost a mini steel cot with excellent firm mattress! The breakfast buffet spread is good with lot of varieties. The OTDC office is just next door, so you can board a day tour to Chilika lake right there at 7 am. Autos are available just outside the hotel and charge 100 to go to the temple. Of course, the hotel is right next to the beach and you can just walk across! The cons: They are rigid about the absurd 8 am checkout and agreed for a 30 minute extension with reluctance,Thank s to the RECEPTION staff. They start the breakfast only at 7.30 am though. Also, the previous morning when we had to leave for the OTDC tour of Chilika at 7 am, they pack breakfast what we later.Overall, a good experience though. Also in return to Airport i booked a taxi from hotel & the service of the cab driver was courteous & reasonable too as compare to hotel out side taxi service.

The hotel is truely the best honeymoon place I ever discovered... it's ambiance its location everything is just mesmerising...I would like to mention a great thing about the hotel is that... guest could enjoy the royal feeling of staying at a real fort.....staffs are very cooperative..and helpful.....all around the hotel is really price worthy....
