The Crown, Bhubaneswar - IHCL SeleQtions  

In the heart of Bhubaneswar, a 5-star hotel set beside Kalinga Stadium and close to government offices. About a 15-minute drive from Biju Patnaik International Airport (roughly 6.4 km). Walkable to Orissa State Museum, Khandagiri Caves and temples lining Bindu Sagar and Muktesvara. A family-friendly base for culture, temples and stadium events.

Spread across lush lawns and poolside grounds, the property channels Odisha’s art and history in its décor — think alpana patterns, Ikat weaves, filigree motifs and temple-inspired wood carvings. There are 81 rooms and suites with minibars and refrigerators, flat-screen TVs, laptop-compatible safes and spa-like rain showers. Check-in from 2:00 pm; check-out by noon.

Seasonal outdoor pool, outdoor jacuzzi and a gazebo for slow-morning coffee. Rejuvenate at the fitness centre or unwind in the game room. Two open lawns by the pool and flexible event lawns set a leafy scene. Concierge services, valet parking and complimentary wired and wireless high-speed internet keep days seamless.

24-hour business centre, extensive conference and meeting spaces, five banquet venues (capacity up to 700) and multiple décor options for events. Fast, complimentary wired and wireless internet across the property and on-site dry cleaning and business support.

An all-day multicuisine restaurant serves seasonal dishes and regional favourites like an Odisha-style thali. A coastal seafood restaurant focuses on local crab, prawn and lobster curries (opening soon). Enjoy handcrafted cocktails at the indoor bar, pastries and pâtisserie at the deli, alfresco private dinners and limited-hours room service. Sip Koraput coffee during sundowners by the pool.
