    Barkul Panthanivas offers good value for the price. The condition is well-maintained and better than many other OTDC Panthanivases. The view of Chillika lake from the AC rooms at the back is especially impressive.

    First of all, the location is great with mesmerizing essence, a feeling of calmness and the foggy winter is a tip on the plater. Rooms are elegant, clean with all amenities. Staff were really decent, always ready to help. Morning tea, good food. They have boat arrangements for visiting Kalijai. Recommended.

    The property is in a sad state considering that OTDC is brilliantly located and has advantage over the other hotels. But the rooms and everything are crumbling down. service is good, but the property should be maintained better.

    Average stay. Very basic amenities and service. Room size is big but needs maintenance. Mirror was broken. main gate lock was not proper. Bathroom was not cleaned. Post checkin once we complained about the same then only it got cleaned and wasted our time. Food was good and reasonable price. Service persons were helpful. Car parking facility on premise was available. Overall average stay considering the price range.

The property itself holds a certain charm, offering a perfect blend of comfort and a relaxed atmosphere.

Imagine waking up to a panoramic vista of the lake, the gentle breeze carrying the whispers of nature.

      Overall a budgeted stay. Location is excellent but not much amenities available. Chilka Lake is clearly visible from AC Cottage balcony. Home Restaurant is available, food taste is good not exceptional and price is reasonable. Room Service is available and good. So far the cleanliness is concerned it could be done better.

      Poor management, worst food at any pathanivas. People are unprofessional and they dont treat you like host. They think your are staying as in for free. They server undercooked food in breakfast with no proper buffet where as mentioned in booking as free breakfast . Avoid staying here
