Hotel Jagadish

Rooms are nice and the stay is comfortable. Prices are budget-friendly. Definitely worth a visit.

Excellent

Rooms are very clean and well kept. Bathrooms are spotless. The air conditioner functions properly. The room is roomy with comfortable beds. Went beyond what I expected. Strongly suggest staying here in Puri.

Good location between the railway station, Shree Jagannath Puri temple, and Golden Beach. However, there is no in-house restaurant.

Although the rooms at Hotel Jagdish were tidy, clean, and fairly well-kept, the conduct of the night staff completely spoiled our stay. We were not asking for anything unreasonable or repeatedly requesting services; we just posed a simple question that any paying guest should be able to ask without feeling uneasy. However, the night staff responded in a very rude, disrespectful, and unprofessional manner, making us feel like we were not paying customers. Good hospitality involves more than just clean rooms; how guests are treated is equally important. No guest should hesitate or feel uncomfortable asking a basic question. Sadly, the night staff showed a total lack of basic courtesy and professionalism. Another problem was the hotel gate being locked around 11 PM. If there is a security policy about entry and exit times, it should be clearly communicated to guests before or during check-in. Guests pay for accommodation and should not feel like they are under hostel-like restrictions. Locking the gates early without proper notice is inconvenient and unfair, especially for travelers who may return late for valid reasons. I selected Hotel Jagdish due to its high ratings and expected a pleasant stay. While the room cleanliness was a positive, good rooms cannot make up for rude and disrespectful staff behavior. Hospitality means making guests feel welcome and comfortable, but this experience was the opposite. Overall, it was very disappointing. I sincerely hope management addresses staff behavior seriously and provides training in customer service and professionalism. Based on my experience, despite the clean rooms, I would not stay here again.
