Charming Home Stay in a Palace!
This is an absolutely charming place to stay! A family home, loaded with beautiful antiques, where every guest room is slightly different. The staff is dedicated to service; the owners manage & live on the property and are gracious & charming hosts. The food was fresh, home-made, authentic & delicious and prepared with tourists in mind (i.e. flavourful but not burn-your-mouth hot). I would definitely stay again and highly recommend!

A delightful experience
Our stay at the Dhenkanal palace was a memorable one. The hospitality and the welcome we felt was very warm. Meenal kumari and Amarjyotiji were kind to have spent time personally telling us about the place and recommending what we must not miss.. The palace itself is so beautifully decorated keeping the heritage intact. We felt very much at home. It was a delight and wished we had spent more time.

What a superb Palace, so well maintained! A must stay in Dhenkanal
We stayed for ONLY a day (bad planning from me). As soon as we entered the palace, my son says "Papa, why did you book for only 1 night". Anyways, the palace is gorgeous, very well maintained and has a lot of history/tradition with small stories surrounding each room/corridor. Amarjyoti-ji, personally looks after all guests and ensures that guests have a great time. He was always available to give valuable suggestions on different things one can do in and around the palace. The food was delicious, and while we were staying in a heritage property, the owners made all guests feel special creating a very homely environment. It was a shame to only stay for a day. Hopefully not too distant in the future, we would definitely revisit and stay at this magnificent property for few days atleast. We will recommend it to all our friends for sure.

Best Experience !!!
I had one of the most unique experience at Dhenkanal Palace. Having not experienced a stay at any palace, this has to be an exquisite feeling for me and my family. The huge palace is superbly maintained and has lots of treasure from the past. You get to experience the royal treatment along with the beautiful sight of the Eastern Ghats covering around the palace's vicinity. They have very well-mannered staff who helped us in and around the palace during our stay. We also had the golden opportunity to have our meal with the mighty king of Dhenkanal, K P Singhdeo and his family. All in all my family and me had the best weekend gateway here and will always remember their hospitality. I would definitely recommend everyone to visit this palace whenever they get an opportunity.
