Palais de Mahe - CGH Earth

Puducherry|2.66km from downtown
We eventually got to bed at 2.30am due to a luggage problem at Kochi/Chennai airports. The hotel arranged for the driver from Chennai airport to wait the five hours for us which was great. We tipped him well, We had booked the terrace suite which is spacious. A sitting area and comfortable bed with two individually controlled air conditioners. (A tip is to turn off the one over the bed as the air flows over you). The bathroom has a shower and single sink. It is ok but not spacious. But this is a three star hotel so don’t expect too much. Clearly we were in need of sleep but at 7am very loud furniture movement from the floor above woke us up. (The odd motorbike outside the window too.) The noise was coming from the restaurant directly above us and people/staff moving chairs about. Very loud even when using the earplugs from another CGH property at Brunton Boatyard in Kochi Fort. There are no rugs at all just hard floors which amplify the noise. (see photo) Our terrace overlooks the swimming pool but there is building work going on as well which is disappointing. (See photo) Breakfast at Brunton Boathouse was good; here at Pudicherry really poor. A blackboard of what’s on offer but small portions and poor quality. A great fruit choice at Brunton; here very little. If you want anything off piste like passion fruit it needs ordering in advance. The breadbasket consisted of a small slice of something masquerading as apple tart and a really poor croissant (my partner is French and he scored this the worst croissant of any property during our 4 week holiday. This is a bit ironic given this is an old French colony!) (See photo). Breakfast has put us off the restaurant for dinner but there are other places to discover in town. We were recommended to CGH Hotel Group by Abercrombie & Kent. Not one of their better recommendations in my vie and a not auspicious start to our Puducherry visit

Le Dupleix

Puducherry|2.84km from downtown
I stayed here for two nights from 21st to 23rd February 2024 with my husband and we were extremely dissatisfied with our stay! We were in Room 14 on the top floor and had the following experience: - On check-in, our room and bathroom floor was filthy! Our feet literally turned black while walking barefoot and we had to complain, post which they mopped the floor and it got slightly better! The room was musty and that musty smell did not go throughout our stay! - The sofas in the room are visibly dusty and have no padding / cushioning at all. You literally feel like you're sitting on a rock. - The room door is entirely glass and allows sunlight to enter the room which is just impractical designing as you wake up every morning with abundant light entering the room! The door is also super flimsy and needs to be changed ASAP! - The reception has incompetent and inexperienced staff who just seem confused and unsure of what to do. Every time we raised an issue or requested for something to be done, the lady at the reception seemed unclear about how to resolve it and most times nothing was done! - There is major construction work going on at the plot adjacent to the hotel and while we cannot blame the hotel for this, the noise and dust is ridiculous! the hammering and drilling would start at 6 am (not sure how that's even legally allowed!). Not at all ideal for a vacation! The location of the hotel is fantastic and given that this is a TripAdvisor Travelers' Choice winning property and a Hidesign Hotel, we booked it. But the hotel is definitely run down and needs major upkeep and maintenance! There were other guests who had the same experience as us. FYI - there is no lift in the hotel so one has to climb stairs to the rooms which are on the higher floors. This should be highlighted for people with handicaps, health issues, etc.

Hotel De Petit

Puducherry|2.34km from downtown
I recently went to Pondicherry and booked a suite with them, thinking its really a suite(2 bedrooms) and it costed me 50k for 2 nights ***** with my parents. After booking i just called them and tried to confirm the booking upon which they mentioned that there is only one bathroom in the suite. What a disappointment it was but still as we already made up our mind we decided to go ahead thinking the bathroom would be common and can be used by 4 adults (me, my wife, and my parents). We did not know there is another surprise waiting for us. Upon reaching we found that the only bathroom was inside one bedroom and for the people in the other bedroom, it was impossible to access if the room is closed from inside. My parents were hesitant using the bathroom in the night with me and my wife in the bedroom with the bathroom. When we talked to the hotel staff and asked why this detail was not mentioned on the website , they said we don't mention these details on the website. I replied that the website has even the towel which is given mentioned , why not this detail? After paying 50k for 2 nights, my parents had to go to a floor above in the night for the bathroom. What a terrible experience it had been. Super overpriced rooms (they charge like 5star hotel) with below average facilities (i have been to ***y 5 stars hotel with less price). Below average food, not a single other facility except a swimming pool on the roof which no one can use because it's so hot. Pathetic, terrible , horrifying experience. Please don't think that the customers are fools. You put the suite up for booking when the de***d is high so that you can fool the customers who doesn't have enough details and get as much as money from them. Before you call it a suite , go and check how suite looks like. You may have made some money by cheating me, but will loose enough if someone reads this message and decide to not go with you. Have some sense, these tricks doesn't work now a days.

The Richmond

Located in the heart of white town, the property is exceptional. The warmth of the staff and attention to detail are excellent. We had a pleasant stay. The inhouse restaurant serves great quality food. We were pleasantly mind blown! We would definitely come back and even won't hesitate booking an property from the same hotelier without a second thought.

Ginger Pondicherry
3.6/543 Reviews
We stayed in Ginger Pondicherry in Dec First week. We had booked for 2 nights and check-in time was 2 PM. We reached the hotel by 9 AM and was planning to keep the bags at reception and roam around till room becomes available. To my surprise, the staff handed me room key :-) Our return bus was in the evening, so checked for late checkout. It was available for 25% of room charge. At the time of checkout they surprised me again and did not charge for the late checkout. Room was a bit small, but clean and neat. Again the staff suggested to go for twin room as it will have more space than double room. Breakfast was good with very good vegetarian options (We are veg). Coffee was really good. The seating area is well maintained with paintings of all the places in Pondicherry. Special thanks to Ginger hotel staff Febroina, Uraj and Raj for making our stay wonderful.
