Hotels in East Coast Road

"Breakfast is phenomenal, French, Indian, Scandinavian. Some entertainment was available, with Indian dancers and acrobats on the Indian New Year. Swimming pools are in excellent shape and the garden and beach are well maintained. The golf course, though, does not really exist, with no greens. We played three holes back and forth. Billard could only be played against a fee which is quite unheard of. However, uniquely for the hotels we visited there was High Tea in the afternoon on offer - very British. We also found a tree planted by King Charles. Easy exploration of the Unesco Cultural Heritage sites by foot. Especially the ones downtown are very impressive."

"We very much liked this hotel because of the neoclassical architecture and the sheer dimensions. The lift is impressive with a view on the town while going up! The pool in their urban canyon is in an excellent condition with a diving school, trainers teaching children to swim and several jets that constantly exchange the freshwater. We walked around the various parts of Puducherry during the day and enjoyed the pool afterwards from 4 to 6 pm at which point it closes. A variety of Indian breakfast options and toast is available and the hotel restaurant has a decent menu at reasonable prices. I settled on toast, boiled egg and an excellent tomato chutney. The rooms in the old wing are more spacious with high ceilings but in a less good condition. We preferred these historical ones but changed for the last two days of the week to a modern one due group events."

"A pearl of a hotel in delightful Puducherry. Would gladly come here again!"
