This is the third time we, a family of three adults chose this hotel since July 2019. Though a little away from the sea shore, this gorgeous property with meticulously maintained lawn, swimming pool, garden, rooms and long corridors is exactly what we needed and loved. Food is great, especially the continental dishes. Staff behaviour is very courteous and friendly.
Thanks and best wishes for the whole family of BNR, Puri.

When we entered BNR Chanakya Puri in the evening, the sea breeze was blowing, the hotel was decked up with golden lights and we were provided a warm welcome and taken to our respective rooms. After freshening up, we spent the next couple of hours in the easy chairs of the vast hallway enjoying the sea breeze. And that became our routine over the next 2 days.

The rooms are huge, well appointed with heritage furniture and very much comfortable and we had a very good sleep the 3 nights that we were there.

Room service, staff behaviour and attention to detail needs to be spelt out - very good.

The restaurant serves very good food too.

Our stay at BNR Chanakya Ranchi and then subsequently at BNR Puri has reinforced my belief that the BNR Chanakya group has really taken good care of heritage properties.

A few points which could have made the stay 5 star rated are:
1. Continental food was mentioned in the menu card but was not available since the continental chefs were on leave. If we had to order for continental food then we would have to order it beforehand which was inconvenient for us. Anyway we did order grilled chicken and caramel custard and when the food came out, it turned out to be tasty.

2. Before 2015 the sea was directly accessible and could be seen from the balcony and I can only imagine the charm of those days. I had even heard that there was a library where one could curl up in easy chairs with a book.

3, Lift is not present which makes it difficult for senior citizens to go to the first floor.

Excellent in all respect i.e house keeping,food , Behavior of staff along with front office and also security.
Mr.Sanjog was so cordial you can't believe unless you meet him.He has solved many problems in quick response.Definitely I will visit again.
