We visited Pondicherry this summer and stayed in this hotel with kids and elderly people. Starting from booking this facility till the day of my return everything about this hotel was wonderful. A convenient booking over the phone helped me a lot. It was pretty hot when we visited there. However, we did not feel it. The hotel opened to... More

Poor maintenance and electrocution in 3/4 rooms we stayed. Embarrassed in front of my family for booking this hotel . Other wise it was good. No food availability and they don't provide even a quality coffee in the mornings

this property is all about its location. After 6 pm, when the traffic on the beach road is shut, you feel that the entire promenade is privately owned by this property. Combine this with great weather in Jan-Feb (that we experienced) and this made our stay an absolutely stunning one. Things that we loved: 1) Location 2) Food 3) Promenade... More

I stayed here for 2 days. The hospitality was great! The peace of mind I felt with the open view of the ocean, while I was in my room itself was priceless. You need to walk around the place for meals as no in house restaurant is there. You can get a two wheeler at the hotel itself on request... More

I stayed in the resort for 2 days, Good Hotel in prime locality. The view from the rooms are excellent. Mr Gupta the manager is polite and very accommodating ;). It is beautiful heritage hotel with great view, without any frills attached like games, gym etc.. this makes it value for money. highly recommended.

This hotel is right on the promenade and the view from seaview room is fantastic. There is no restaurant in the hotel but that is ok since there are lot of options nearby. Pros: Great location, nicely maintained old mansion Good basic clean rooms. Cons: Service can be improved. We had to ask specifically for the towels in the room.... More
