Pondicherry’s bougainvilleas, crumbling cathedrals and leafy boulevards might occasionally make you wonder if you’re in the south of France instead of a former French colony. But it's also unmistakably Indian, with colorful festivals, the famous monument of Aayi Mandapam, and the Sri Aurobindo Ashram. Quiet beaches stretch north and south from town, good for swimming and sunrise strolls.

This is located nearby beach road . Please read this review completely before booking : I have stayed in this hotel ,first experience was okay , but second was worst experience 1) it is not upfront sea view hotel rooms ,its from side balcony sea is visible which can be seen in my video 2) There is an executive room with city view - which was displayed in Agoda website while booking which was 30% to 40% offer , cheapest rate in week , so many ads .BUT IN REALITY THIS EXECUTIVE ROOM HAS NO VENTILATION ,NO WINDOWS LITERALLY SUFFOCATING .I approached the front desk to change my room to city view as they said we don't have city view rooms ,wrongly mentioned in website .when i asked to switch for balcony view rooms , i had to pay Rs 2000 extra per day ,as it was weekend this room was provide the next day at 1530 hours only .so ,before booking call to this hotel reception and book only balcony rooms , executive rooms are not worth for 1000rs also as it has no ventilation ,please look at the video yourself for the better idea .i wish this review will be helpful before booking .

"Cours CHABROL" is a small property situated on the famous promenade of Pondicherry, the beach avenue, with 11 well appointed rooms offering the sea view.
Strictly ok. Great location esp the view from the terrace! opt for this place only if you have a sea facing rooms. The rest of the rooms have walls in front of the windows. No frills, basics in compact rooms. Hygiene is maintained. Plumbing looks like it is ready to break anytime. Right place only if you’re in transit. They only provide breakfast.

Coramandal Heritage, 150 years old Franco-Tamil home hosts from the centre of the colonial town. In 2007, this house has been converted into a calm hotel. It offers a peaceful stay with ten comfort rooms. There is a gallery for South- Arcot paintings and an ethical boutique for cotton products.
The property is centrally located and all important places are within a km range(walking) from the hotel so this makes it a must stay place in Pondicherry. Also, the place is safe for women travellers as it has a home-like and heritage vibe. Stayed on the second floor. The rooms are clean with basic amenities like towels and soaps. The smart TV in the room was a cherry on the cake. Overall experience was amazing and it's a highly recommended place.

No drinking glasses. No ventilation at all in the sealed bathroom. Two of 6 spots worked rest falling out of the ceiling. Mirror cracked . Toilet bowl and seat stained.One bar of soap and nothing else. No toilet hand shower. Seedy and unmaintained Reception/ house manager on duty from 9.30 to 18.30. Otherwise property is unmanned. No security at night. Nothing available in this hotel except breakfast . That is spartan with filthy old mugs.The toast is toasted on one side only which epitomizes the meanness of this hotel. The so called pool is chipped, full of leaves and deteriorating. The owner should be thoroughly ashamed.. Avoid this place at all cost. You have been warned

Stayed as family and it was good. Clean room and washroom. Hotel reception was good and check-in was quick. Morning breakfast was nice and restaurant attached to the hotel having good south indian food. Providence Mall was 500mts away from the hotel for a timepass and beach was 2km away. Just opposite to bus station and you will get enough commute option around the hotel. Car parking was just behind the hotel and reception will help to park/pickup the car. Recommended for family and overall it was a good stay.

Located atleast 2kms away from White Town. Its a budget hotel. U get what u pay for. Nothing fancy. Breakfast was included. And it was good! Service staff was polite & courteous. Then y 3 stars u ask! Well Bathroom had a weird smell, no room freshner could remove it. Rooms could have been cleaner. Bedsheets & towels both had stains. House keeping was prompt though. None of this surprised us, coz we r budget travellers, and we frequent these kind of budget hotels. Recommended for people looking for budget accommodation

My friend and I somehow managed to stay at this place for 1 night in April, 2022. We had booked a Superior Double Room after reading the reviews and looking at the pics posted by other guests. Our entire trip was a nightmare just because of us booking this place for a night. Mr.Krishnan is the most disrespectful person you will ever meet, he has a huge ego issue and does not agree with any problems with the stay. Now let us come to the room. Seems like some 10yr old kid designed this place. The balcony is closed and has windows. The fans do not work well at all. Our only requirement was an A/C and that was only giving out hot air. There is a shower in the bathroom, but no water comes out of it. The beds are about 4 ft high, we are 6 ft guys and still found it a little hard to get up and down from the bed. The only thing we liked was the fridge, and we literally had to take turns sitting in front of it over the night to not die of heat. I really hope I saved some of you from booking this place after reading this review, else, God bless you!
