The veg restaurant at the Ground floor was good. The buffet breakfast was great. The staff were very courteous. Definitely recommend this place and will surely choose the same place, when I go to Pondy next time.

      It was a pleasant stay at Abirami residency. We stayed in the standard room for 2 nights. The rooms were comfortable. The hotel has a pure veg restaurant which serves great food. It worked for us as some people in the group were vegetarians. The breakfast was quite nice. The best part about the hotel is its location - walkable from rock beach, white town and heritage town. The guards are really helpful and guide you while parking. Would definitely recommend this to family and group travellers.

      Terrible location, useless staff, decent room”

      Room size, checking out

      Staff generally unhelpful. Would need to ask 4 times to get something done. Terrible location, not close to beach and not close to good part if pondicherry.
