We arrived at this hotel at 5am in the morning without a booking and the man at reception responded to our knock at the gate and let us in. As with most places in Puri the checkout is 9am and we got told there was a room with bathroom available after 9am. There are some great common areas in this... More

The Z hotel is a nice, but slightly run down hotel, the room could do with a lick of paint certainly. The staff are friendly, and the food is quite good. The location to town is very good, as it is right on the main strip. The beach in town though is disgusting, if you are coming to Puri just... More

My sister and I and a few friends stayed 5 nights at Z Hotel and really loved it, the rooms and bathrooms were cleaned well everyday. The kitchen staff were fabulous, friendly and loved to have a joke. I really loved my time here and would recommend it to the budget traveller. More

The rooms were quite spacious for budget India standards and they served reasonably priced and delicious breakfasts. Service was good overall. The problem at night was the mosquitoes -- even though the beds had mosquito nets, the... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our 4 day stay in the peaceful and relaxing atmosphere at Z hotel. The rooms are basic and you have to be lucky to get hot water, however it's all kept extremely clean and everyone is very friendly and accommodating. Meals can be enjoyed family style at a big wooden table on the terrace. We had a... More

Had a great time at Z Hotel. Although we heard that not all the rooms are as good, we rented a room on the second floor, with windows on three sides. It was a very pleasant experience despite the March heat. The Z Hotel seems to attract long-term travelers - we met one guy who stays at the Z five... More
