HOTEL KHARAVELA — Hotel in Bhubaneswar Municipal Corporation

Though the hotel was spacious and near to the NH, there was no parking facility inside the hotel campus. We had to park our fully packed car (as we were traveling from Bengaluru to Kolkata and halted in bhubaneswar) outside the hotel premises, which led to a tyre puncture and a whole different struggle in the morning. The lift was not working. Trust me after a day or two of constant driving, a functioning lift is a necessity. So going up the stairs with wobbly knees and tired feet at around 2am is not a pleasant feeling! Coming to the room... The bedsheet was full of stains, the pillows were uneven and somewhat distorted which led to a sprained neck. The pillow cover had stains on them. The towels were similarly very very dirty. The bathroom fittings were poorly placed. The jet spray was obviously on the wrong side of the wall..which caused a pretty big inconvenience. Now, for the ones who are NOT fond of lizards or insects, be aware... this hotel has some dinosaur size lizards. In the bathroom there were lizards and that was a HUGE disadvantage for me (read disadvantage as anxiety). Overall, I will Not recommend the hotel for a halt or any...

Booked their hall for an event and that was a nightmare, no water and due to electricity cuts they were starting the digital generator after 4-5 mins which happened many times.. offered them money to keep a person at the D.G. but to no avail.. already charging a lot but to be safe from embarrassment offered money for more staff to handle the bad situation in many sections but for everything they said no. Also shut down the A.C. much much before time.. food served was ice cold and the guests complained about that to them directly but for every thing they have an excuse many items were not replenished immediately after 2 mins gap that too after shouting.. in front of guests I was so embarrassed that I can't explain.. for holding any event it was a very very bad idea.. plus they asked for money in cash so that they can avoid tax. How much money do you want to make after duping people with your false promises.. my event was like a horror set and full of false promises.. really feeling looted and dejected with the harassment I faced especially for...

Trust me you will regret if you select this hotel. As a public awareness, am letting you know please check for all other options but not this hotel. Specially if you planning for marriage. I had my relatives marriage over here and we regret all the time for selecting this hotel. You have to pay all the money one day before marriage. Hotel will decide all the ambiance, decoration, cook, light..etc. You can't customize a single thing by your own. They will serve cold food so less can be consumed. There will be minimum of 15 min delay in every food refill which will force guest to quit. The main item like mutton, shrimp will be cooked with soda and some banaspati ghee. Even if you really don't have any option for other hotel then also don't go...
