We recently stayed at the railway heritage hotel, Chanakya BNR at Puri, a property that has stood proudly for almost a hundred years. The hotel's rooms and hallways have been exquisitely renovated, with floors that have been changed from their original brick red to a chic black and white checkered pattern. This pattern has added a touch of symmetry and gives the impression that the corridors go on forever. The experience of strolling through these renovated spaces, admiring the blend of historical splendour and modern comfort, was truly delightful. The hotel's charming balconies offered serene views of the meticulously manicured lawns, providing a perfect spot to unwind and enjoy the tranquility of the surroundings. Nestled in the privacy of the gardens, the beautiful pool was an oasis of relaxation. Breakfasts were a highlight, served in age-old dining 'car' that retained it's historic charm while offering contemporary service standards. The menu featured delicious continental food, which could be enjoyed in the comfort of our room upon request. The friendly and supportive staff went above and beyond to ensure our stay was enjoyable, adding a personal touch to the entire experience. Despite having to work during our stay, the environment was a refreshing change, conducive to both productivity and relaxation. The only downside was the ongoing renovations, which brought some construction noise and dust. However, this minor inconvenience was overshadowed by the overall excellence of our stay. In summary, it was a super stay, blending heritage charm with modern comforts in a picturesque locale just a couple of hundred metres from the beautiful Puri beach.
