Rayagada District accommodation from NZ$42

The room was good, the hotel staff were professional, helpful and friendly, communication was good. Unfortunately, the restaurant downstairs was bad. The food was atrocious. The chef had no clue about chinese cuisine - the egg noodles were the worst there was. As to Indian cuisine, the chicken drumsticks served as starters were undercooked. The fish curry was of poor quality - it appeared the chef had no idea about the proportions of spices to be used. The food took an inordinately long time to arrive - the waiter told us it would take 20 or 25 minutes for the food to arrive but the starter came after 45 minutes, but had to be sent back due to being undercooked. After another long wait the repaired starter (still not quite up to mark) and the mains came together. We had asked for warm water to drink at the start, that was not delivered until after more than one hour. The menu had a list of ice creams, none were in stock. We requested a Sprite (cold drink), it took them 7 minutes to bring it to the table. The next day, we suffered from indigestion and needed medication. Avoid this restaurant!!!
