5-star hotels in Puri
A shortlist of the 5-star hotels in Puri, from big spa resorts to small serviced stays. It is for couples, families and pilgrims who want a rated place to sleep near the beach or the Jagannath Temple.
Staying in Puri
Puri pairs its role as one of the Char Dham pilgrimage sites, home to the Jagannath Temple, with a long beach on the Bay of Bengal. The beach is a place for walks and local food stalls, and the city works as a base for the Sun Temple at Konark and Chilika Lake. Visitors come for devotion, history and coastal charm, and the annual Rath Yatra draws large crowds.
The 5-star stays on this list sit in the beachside belt rather than the old town. Taj Puri Resort & Spa Odisha and Sterling Puri are in Sipasurbali and Sipasarubali Village, Baliapanda; Nath's Residency, Goroomgo Hotel Coral Suites Puri Near Sea Beach and WeKare Platinum Economical suites are on or off Baliapanda Road and the beach; Shree Nivas Homestay and RS Homestay lie further inland. It suits couples after a spa break, families wanting pools and playgrounds, and business guests needing meeting rooms.

Plan your stay
Getting there and around
Puri is well-connected by rail and road. The nearest major airport is Biju Patnaik International Airport in Bhubaneswar, about 60 kilometres away, with domestic flights; the journey from Bhubaneswar takes about 1-2 hours by car. Puri has its own railway station with regular trains from major cities like Kolkata, Delhi and Chennai, and by road it is linked to Bhubaneswar and other parts of Odisha via national highways. Within the city, auto-rickshaws, cycle-rickshaws and taxis are readily available, and walking is convenient in the temple and beach areas.
When to go
The best time to visit Puri is from October to February, when the weather is pleasant and suitable for sightseeing and beach activities. Summers from March to June can be hot and humid, while the monsoon from July to September brings heavy rainfall. The Rath Yatra festival, usually held in June or July, is a major event but attracts large crowds, so plan around it if you want quiet beach days.
