Known world over for the fabulous Sun Temple built in the shape of a chariot, the picturesque Chandrabhaga Beach and the Konark Dance Festival, Konark is an otherwise desolate and quite temple town in Orissa. As a consequence, hotels in Konark are limited to guesthouses and tourist bungalows that, mind you, make your tour to Konark Temple and the beach a thrilling experience.
Usually, a day excursion to Konark from the nearby popular tourist destinations of Puri and Bhubaneswar is enough to take in the splendor of the Konark Temple and its distinct temple architectural style. However, if you want to club a beach tour with your temple tour in Orissa, then you can stay in any of the guesthouses and lodges with basic amenities located in Konark.
The Panthanivas Tourist Bungalow in Konark, operated by Orissa Tourism Development Corporation (OTDC) is one such place where you can stay overnight and enjoy the sight of a setting sun casting its shadow over the Sun Temple ruins. Take a walk on the beach, go swimming or boating, or relax in your double occupancy room overlooking the garden and the woods beyond. The garden restaurant at the Panthanivas Tourist Bungalow in Konark is also a popular haunt for the tourists.
Other hotels in Konark where you can lodge during your tour of Konark include the Yatri Niwas, Konark Lodge, Sunrise Lodge and Banita Lodge.
