Chanakya BNR Hotel

The Chanakya BNR Hotel, at Puri awaits you with the timeless grace of old world charm and all modern day amenities. We give you expansive rooms, tantalizing corridors and well-maintained terraces all telling the story of India's magnificent Railway inheritance. The Chanakya BNR hotel has a royal history and is located just 200 meters from the picturesque Puri beach. We are proud to be the only heritage hotel in Orissa as well as uniquely, the only railway theme hotel in India. Each room, as well as its public area, display rare photographs that convey the achievements of the Indian Railways - one of the world's largest employer. After evaluating over 18,000 photographs we have handpicked a few for our distinguished guests. We are proud to be the only hotel in the world to display such a rare collection of photographs that leaves one in awe of India's glorious Rail heritage. One cannot help but admire the courage of the founders of this magnificent monolith known as the Indian Railways, which was instrumental in crossing great rivers by building grand bridges or supporting the Indian Army during times of war. We would only be fair in concluding that the Indian Railway is undoubtedly one of India's greatest infrastructural achievements. Being one of the famous Railway Heritage Hotels, the Chanakya BNR strives to apprise our guests about the intriguing history of the Indian Railways via these photographs. These historic pictures will greet you in every nook and corner of the hotel and will take you on a fascinating journey back in time. It's our promise! All 37 sea facing rooms at the Chanakya BNR are equipped with customised art work from the glorious Indian Railway and have been furnished keeping in mind the heritage nature of the property. Apart from the vintage design room furniture, the rooms truly take you back in time yet provide all amenities desired by today's traveller. Space is not a constraint in these palatial rooms and each room is of a different size depending on which part of the building one might find oneself in.

Reviewed By Rajesh P

I stayed here for a day. Kitchen food was good and the cook at that place makes very delicious food. Great rooms, nice pool, front garden and deck area are really nice and clean. View from my room was great too with a spacious balcony which had a table and chair so that i can come out of my room and sit outside and even have food or tea there. I stayed in a deluxe room and my wife loved it the moment we arrived into the room and also wished we could extend our stay. Two things i didn't like about my stay are - 1. Hotel didn't accept my dinner order saying its time already. They never told or have anything written on the in-room menus saying that there is any last order timing for dinner. It says dinner time is till 9pm and i had called in to order by 8:58pm. And they said there is a restaurant just outside the hotel. I wanted room service from the hotel itself as the lunch i had was really good, and food tasted like home cooked food. 2. I was served peeled and cut bananas saying its fruit salad which was part of the continental menu for breakfast. When i asked them about it the manager gave me vague excuses. And was not interested in doing something to fix it. Overall the place is good to stay. But i wont recommend the add-on services.

Horrible experience

Reviewed By Rajesh N

My experience staying at your hotel is bad  I will mention it pointwise. 1. I took a suite which cost me around 7000/_ and you don't provide bottled water. 2. Breakfast experience is very bad, as you are providing very limited breakfast limited to PURI, SABJI, EGG, AND BREAD, you are giving banana cut into pieces which are very unhygienic. Above all, we have to wait to get a LUCHEE for 15 minutes 3. Please improve your bathroom where there are no proper shelve to keep our clothes and towels.

Beware of unexpected experiences!

Reviewed By Raj4mKol

I chose this hotel viewing the pictures of the rooms and settled for a Suite with large room size along with complimentary breakfast. When I arrived at the hotel, I was told that I had booking for ground floor non-sea view suite and suggested to for a double-bed sea-view room instead. I was sure that there was no option to choose different Suite rooms. I firmly told that there was no such option on the booking website. Then I was told that sea-view Suite on the higher floor was not ready and we need to wait for a while and in the mean time we could check the available sea-view double bed room. We had a visit to the room and immediately rejected the room for small size with small bathroom. We waited for a while instead, had breakfast on the nearby beach and came back to check into the sea-view Suite Room 301 on 2nd floor. The room was big with one adjoining room with dining table and a uncomfortable single bed but no refrigerator. The main room had a double bed, big se-view window and a large balcony. That is all - everything else was very old and un-serviced. The wall hanging AC indoor unit has a separate controller mounted on the wall and you can not change the temperature - it always cools, we needed to switch it off at night before sleep to avoid extreme cold in the night. The wall had damp strains. It was very difficult to find the switch of the tubelight hidden inside the cabinet below the TV. The bathroom of the Suite had a bathtub too, proudly announced by the hotel stuff - I immediately discarded the idea to use it when I saw the bathtub with lots of strains. The door of the bathrrom was damp struck - the handle was broken and kept on the side of the bathtub. The bathroom had inclination problem - I rubbed the floor by feet to remove the water on the floor after bath. The service was very bad. You need to call and follow up several times to get the food delivered at room - they just do not pick up the phone or forget to serve the order. The linens and towels were not cleaned properly and full of strains. The main surprise came on the day we left. While serving the breakfast in our room we were told to pay the bill! I told that we had booking with complimentary breakfast and came to know in reply that the items we ordered were not part of the complimentary package. I argued that we were never told so at the time of checking or during ordering the breakfast and mentioned to settle the matter at the reception desk during checkout. At the reception desk desk we were told that some specific small items could only be taken as part of complimentary breakfast - the items we took had to be paid for. Getting frustrated (as we had to leave our bags before catching the night train), we requested to deduct the amount at the rate of the complimentary items. Finally they opted to deduct Rs. 200 @50/person/day for 2 persons for 2 days! Imagine Rs. 50 for each breakfast for Suite room occupants as part of complimentary breakfast. With these experiences, I would recommend to avoid this hotel if possible. By the way, keep a note that we saw rooms under renovation. After renovation the double-bed rooms may become okay to stay. However I doubt the service and overall quality would improve.

EHS - Safety Issue and maintenance

Reviewed By Rd17274

We stayed in this hotel from 7th April to 11th April 2022 with 4 adults & 2 kids, we took 2 sea facing rooms. I am very much concerned about the safety near the window of 3rd floor. I am concerned because I have kids & you should too. The railing near the window has a 2 feet X 2 feet gap of Room no 318. There is no balcony beyond window and a small negligence may cause free fall from 3rd floor to ground directly. This could lead to any fatal accidents. Hotel management doesn't take any action even after repeatedly reminder given to house keeping, front desk, even their maintenance supervisor. Hence, requesting the hotel top management & local authority to take this complain very seriously and take an immediate action to fix it. Attaching some pictures for my concern.
