Hotels nahe French War Memorial (Puducherry)

"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."
