Sterling Holiday Resorts has announced the launch of Sterling Arka Suites, introducing Puri’s first all-suite upscale boutique hotel. Located within the same precinct as the existing Sterling Puri resort, Arka Suites is designed as a distinct, elevated sanctuary. The property features spacious suites with pool-facing private balconies, plush interiors, and walls adorned with modern interpretations of Odisha’s traditional Pattachitra art.
The hotel’s culinary offerings are headlined by Solara, a restaurant blending global flavors with coastal elegance. Guests also have access to Amo Odisha, an award-winning Odiya specialty restaurant at the adjacent resort. Arka Suites is positioned as a premier destination for large-scale celebrations, with event spaces capable of hosting over 700 guests.
Vikram Lalvani, Managing Director and CEO of Sterling, commented on the expansion: “Sterling Arka Suites Puri marks the next phase of our journey—introducing Puri’s first all-suite, upscale boutique experience within a destination we’ve helped shape over time. This all-suite addition allows us to offer a more intimate, elevated stay while remaining seamlessly connected to the larger Sterling Puri ecosystem, giving travellers greater choice, space and depth in how they experience the city.”
Beyond accommodation, the property offers curated cultural programs, including sand-art workshops, Odissi performances, and Chappan Bhog culinary masterclasses, reinforcing Sterling’s commitment to destination-led coastal hospitality.
