I am staying in this hotel since last 5 years and has seen the developments since then. There is no change in the quality level of all services, however the room rents has gone up substantially without any addition to services provided. However their restaurant provides a tasty south Indian food having a very good taste.

Very comfy room and clean hotel. Location not the greatest as it is not in walking distance of much (about 3 km from the French Quarter which is the best part of Pondicherry). Breakfast wasn't too inspiring and a final irritation was the receptionist arguing that I had made a call to Cochin and wanting to charge me for it... More

The only hotel I have stayed so far where checkin is allowed without any advance payment. They allowed early checkin and late checkout. Location is good, not so far from the bus station and other prominent areas. The staff were very friendly and the hotel is very well kept. The standard room we booked was nice and clean. The buffet... More

Walking into the lobby is like entering the badly done stage set of a low budget theatre production. Over decorated with cheap baubles, facades of houses painted on the walls, with make-believe balconies, and on the undersized balconies, over sized mannequins. The Renaissance restaurant walls featured crude copies of European paintings, including a portrait of good old Napoleon. Nothing else... More
