Walked in and asked for a room on seeing their balcony with chairs facing the sea on a walk on the promenade. Lucky it was off season and a weekday. The rooms are basic with ac and excellent view of the sea. They had a full house in summer on a weekday do I can guess the demand during weekends... More

Have stayed there twice and both experiences were good. The biggest advantage is the location - right bang opposite the ocean so you wake up and it's the first thing you see when you get up from the bed. Also have a electric kettle and tea-sugar-dairy whitener packets in each room along with a pack of biscuits. Rooms are very... More

excellent location at promenede,helpful staff,spacious and neat/clean rooms at affordable rates.What else you can ask for. Ashram and all other activities are also close by and hence becomes easy for spiritual holidays. No TV's/swimming pool and hence very calm and peaceful environment. book in advance.

I visited this hotel. This hotel is in-front of sea. Sea view rooms are wonderful, but little expensive compared to other rooms, but not too expensive than other hotels. Food may seem tasteless to some people but its quite good with options between Indian or Foreign cuisines. Also parking is available but in night only. You will need to book... More

If you are looking for a quiet stay at the beach at affordable rates, this is the place! The place is clean and comfortable. The service is good. And...what a view of the sea! All places connected to the ashram and local places are walking distance.

The rooms are bright, very clean and comfortable, with helpful and polite staff. A complementary breakfast is served in... More

The location of the hotel is ideal. With sea facing rooms;its bang on the sea front in the French Pondi; and a stone's throw from the Ashram. However, the attitude of the staff was cold, rude and unemphatic. The front office staff couldn't ( or didnt want to) help with any local details like where is the nearest rickshaw stop?... More
