For British people eating in this part of India will be a problem, no question.Knives and forks are apparently unknown and fingers are used instead.When I asked for a fork at breakfast I was given a tablespoon.That was the only cutlery the Hotel owned.But eating with fingers is the way the people have always done it so if you go...

We spent 4 nights with our children in Annai Residence and enjoyed the central location in Pondicherry. Room (executive) was nice, clean and AC and water heater worked well. But it seems the hotel lacks somebody with basic skills for fixing / repair items in the bathroom. Bath tub tap, toilet seat, shower tap, toilet paper holder where broken or... More

At rs850/day, we expected a mediocre hotel, but it turned out to better. also we had booked for non-ac rooms through Makemytrip.com but due to non-availability, we got ac rooms at no extra charge.

Makes a change to stay on the other side of Pondy from the French quarter. Close to top of Nehru street so good for shopping. Room was clean and comfortable. The free South Indian Breakfast was terrific and highly recommended. Only problem was that the fan had 2 speeds - so fast that it blew everything around and so slow... More

It was a worst experience of my life. I booked 3 executive rooms of Annai Residence Pondichery for 2 nights after looking a room picture on Travel guru website. The rooms which were allocated to us were Deluxe. When I confront with the hotel manager he lied saying its Executive rooms. I have to spend first night in those small... More
