Travelling to Pondi has always been a pleasant experience. This time around it was made even more pleasurable due to my stay at Hotel De Pondicherry. If you want to enjoy the French Pondicherry experience I would definitely recommend Hotel De. The sumptuous delights offered on the menu of Le Club was a cherry on the cake. Overall, neat rooms,...

W hadnt realised how busy Pondicherry gets peak season & hadnt booked anywhere. Our first choices were all full. This Hotel looked quite nice from the outside & at first I was shown a very basic room on the first floor which I wasnt impressed with. Then onto a "superior" ground floor room which was ok. The room had a... More

Paid Rs.3800 for a night and asked for the room to be changed when I felt caged in on the first room that was shown to us.Absolutely no ventilation except for the entrance door. A lovely heritage building but very unkempt. Bedding and furnishing really musty. Bath room smelt like it was a public toilet despite the staff cleaning it... More

This is a very comfy and friendly boutique hotel with a lovely garden and outdoor cafe called Le Club. The restaurant is very popular and always full. We checked in for two days and liked it so much we stayed a week. We needed time to just relax and this was the perfect place for it. Their coffee was great... More

One of the nicer, yet affordable hotels in the French quarter. The staff was warm and hospitable and the manager (Raj) took good care of us. It is very centrally located, walking distance from the sea and the nicer hotels (Promenade etc). It has a nice bar/restaurant as well. The rooms are a decent size, but the bathroom is not... More

One of the best place to stay to get a feel of the old French Liasion of the city of Pondy. The hotel is located in the midst of the French colony and the architecture fascinated me. It was like staying in olden times with the modern luxuries. If you drive in, just ensure that you do so post 0930... More

It is a charming boutique hôtel in the french quartier with a nice green garden. The only drawback ( And a big one as we moved out for it!) is the price. The room was 3200 rupee which already is expensive but when they charged us an extra 700 for an extrabed for our kids, all of this not including... More

We reserved a room here based on Lonely Planets review of a heritage hotel. Although staff was friendly, the room was overpriced (at 2500 rupees it was the most expensive on our trip). The garden level room was dirty..sheets not clean, mold in drinking glass. There was a strong smell of mold and despite using the fan and AC, the... More

We logged inn to hotel de on early hours of saturday. Its great and centrally located @ puduchery. The structure reminds of french connections. The food was great, though we expected... More
