In the heart of Pondicherry, with nice staff, breakfast and AC”

The rooms here have amusing themes based on music and movie stars. We saw they had a Bob Marley room and instantly booked in. 😆 We ended up in Michael Jackson room 🤨 but it was clean (relative to most 2/3 star places), with working PowerPoints and AC, kettle, tea, coffee. The bed is firm but comfortable. My recommendation for westerners is BYO toilet paper. Breakfast is simple, local food, a selection from idly, vaada, poha, pongal, veg sauces and side chutneys, tea and coffee. Tea is strong and sweet but not masala like in the north. The food is ordered in daily. The staff have good grasp of English, are happy to assist with scooter or bike rental, but be aware that there is only limited street parking here as it's the old city where side streets are often narrow.

Good location cheap hotel”

Good location and nice people But room were not that nice as shown in picture.

Good location, but not value for money”

The hotel is located near to white town. The room we got had no window or ventilation.

Horrible sound proofing and spartan rooms”

The room looked quite old. The roof was not properly painted and was having mold. The worst part of the stay is the noisy neighbouring rooms. The other room doors are placed close to each other and any noise the neighbours make is amplified. Was not able to sleep properly due to the loud noises throughout the night. In addition, the bathroom taps were loose and about to break. Also, the washbasin was leaking. Despite my request to look into the issue, the room keeping refused. Parking is also on the roadside which is the norm for most hotels in Pondy. Overall, not a worthy place to stay if you need good comfort.

staff not at all helpful”

we stayed in the hotel for 3 nights and on 4 th day afternoon we checked out, due to heavy rain we got wet , I asked them room for 5 min to change the dress(my wife), they told rooms are sold out but my wife just came out and called to their hotel number to check if the rooms are really sold out , in the call they mentioned that one room is available, they lied to their customers who asked help for 5 min. when hotel is not customer friendly that too for ladies, definitely it is a bad hotel

not value for money.”

Rooms were closed without any window, feels like suffocating, breakfast was worse.

Highly dissatisfied”

The facilities offered like cleaning, hygienic surroundings inside and outside hotel and basic furniture, bathroom fittings were in a really bad situation. Mosquitoes were all around the place and rooms and bathroom were not in a good shape. Not value for money!!! Not recommended at all.

Pathetic”

The hotel staff treats you like you are living in a prison. They make you wait or ask you stand in the reception. Poor customer service and choice of words. Hotel wall paints are peeled out mouldy and shoddy. It stinks and at nights the pub music goes over the roof and screams.

One of the idiotic experience in Pondicherry”

Their toilet is a waste place, not maintained , they are not provided Bath towels , bathroom fittings are not working overall bad experience only location is good

good hotel well placed... courteous staff but horrible breakfast.... ”

Hotel is good clean and well placed.. However, never book the rooms with breakfast.. The breakfast is limited... With no options The retaurant is run by different management and there is this coupon system, i travelled with my 4 year old and they refused to serve him breakfast without the coupon... It was the most embarrassing discussion i had in any hotel i have stayed in. I had to go down to the reception and get the coupon and go up and feed ny son. The food from the restaurant was otherwise very good specially the North Indian food.

Decent stay option for a couple of days in Pondy”

The stay was pleasant enough except for the noise.This hotel is placed between two of the busiest streets in Pondy and is noisy 24hrs of the day. Also the absence of a restaurant is felt badly.The breakfast is delivered as a package to your room and is most often in a soggy state.

Ok”

Ok. But not worth the value in comparison to other hotels in the area

Stay In Pondy”

It was a good hotel, but it didnt have parking space

Great location in French part of town. ”

Great location. On a quieter street. We've got 2 rooms. One was with a window. Spacious. The other one was a moldy windowless hole. Next time I would make sure I'm getting room with window. The rooms were clean. Good Indian breakfast.

Very very budget hotel. Excellent hotels available in same price ”

Couldn’t stay. Gave room to driver and moved to Hotel Athithi

superb!”

Worth the money!

Big name poor reality”

Staff pathetic and rude. Stay was ok.The AC is uncomfortable and need regular temperature adjustment. Staff of the hotel is rude and does not speak english which makes it very diffucult and uncomfortable for other person.
