    I wish I had stayed more nights here

    Very CLEAN, LARGE and SPACIOUS property in Puducherry, offering plenty of room to relax both indoors and outdoors. The terrace is a great spot to unwind after a day of sightseeing. The rooms are impressively spacious, with very comfortable beds and effective air conditioning that made the stay especially pleasant. The entire hotel feels open and airy, necessary in this city. Perfect place for those seeking comfort and space in a central location.

    Everything is fine!

    It’s a very nice place in à beautiful house: you can see the pictures on the website, very close to the railway station: it s possible to go by walk. I had a very nice, clean and comfortable room and could enjoy AC ! I could also use the washing machine with the help of Tamil 😉The owner and the people working in this guesthouse are very nice and helpful. I can only recommend that very safe and quiet place and will even come back soon! Thank you for everything

    The house was really beautiful and had all the necessary facilities like a kitchen, fridge and a washing machine. Although located in the main area, it was quiet and peaceful. The host was kind enough to let us check in early upon request. Definitely a great homestay.

    Nothing - a key for the front door would make life a little easier but it's not a big issue.

    Affordable accommodation located within the picturesque historic district of Puducherry - within walking distance of the seafront and numerous bars and restaurants. Our room was clean and comfortable - no complaints! The courtyard lounge was also a nice place to retreat after a day of sightseeing. Overall an excellent choice for budget travellers!

    Nothing much to expect from property not even a cup of coffee or tea in the morning.

    Clean n comfortable. In the heart of the city. Friendly staff. If you are looking for a stay just to sleep for few hours and to refresh, this is a clean n comfortable place. Wooden ambience of the house is a feel good factor.

    no room cleaning everyday, providing some basic facilities like a good blanket.

    I had an absolutely wonderful stay.I was impressed by the hotel’s stunning aesthetic – modern, elegant, and beautifully designed. Every corner was thoughtfully decorated, creating a peaceful and inviting atmosphere. Cleanliness was top-notch! The room was spotless, fresh, and smelled amazing. The linens were crisp, the bathroom was sparkling, and even the smallest details were well taken care of. It truly felt like a luxurious retreat. The ambiance throughout the airbnb was calming, with soft lighting, stylish furniture, and a perfect blend of comfort and sophistication. It was a pleasure just to relax and soak in the serene environment. From the moment I walked in, the staff went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. They were incredibly sweet, always greeting me with warm smiles and offering help whenever needed. Their kindness and attention to detail truly made my experience special. Whether it was the front desk or housekeeping everyone was genuinely caring and professional. I can’t wait to return—thank you for making my stay so wonderful!

    The double bed mattress was rather too hard - but that's just personal preference.

    A charming place to stay, super clean and comfortable. Large bath towel, mossie screens on all the windows plus plug-in repellent. Both a/c and fan worked well - not too noisy. Low cost laundry service. Use of kitchen with fridge. Good location in a quiet side street, walking distance to the beach and French Quarter with lots of great cafes and restaurants - highly recommend Crepe In Touch. Sandjiv was friendly and helpful - even gave me a lift to the bus station when I left, and made sure I got on the right bus.

    I was expecting this stay to feel a little like a homestay - homely, friendly, and helpful. For me, it was missing the personal touch... perhaps a reception/host who could advise on where to go, what to do... just general local knowledge.

    The room was clean, comfortable, and spacious. The property itself has a lovely vintage charm. The host was kind enough to let me use a spare room to freshen up after I had checked out in the morning as I had a late afternoon bus to catch. The host also helped arrange transportation for me when needed. I felt safe in the property as the main door was always locked - this is important for me as a solo female traveller

    An old heritage home that is well kept and very clean. It is at a good location next to the train station and central areas of town in a quiet residential street. The owner was extremely kind, made us breakfast (although it was not included), and gave us a lift to the station. He even offered us to use his motorbike the day before. There is access to the kitchen and fridge as well and to a small library.

    Nothing to specify as negative. A small suggestion, can try to include complimentary breakfast if possible.

    Th property is one of THE BEST I have stayed so far across the country. Especially the hospitality by the staff is very nice. They are very kind and friendly. Heritage home definitely takes us to the retro period. Will definitely recommend to the friends

    More than anything the hospitality of Mr.Abdul Kabeer and Tamizh was the highlight of my trip. A homely atmosphere, especially on a day when the rains didn't allow me to venture out a lot , they made things easy for me.

    Tbh, I really can't think of any. I overally enjoyed the stay.

    This place is highly recommended. A beautiful 19th century house where you feel like home away from home. Surrounded with beautiful antique pieces and huge common space. The place is closer to white town, rock beach and other main location. Super close to pondi railway station.. Cleanliness is top-notch. Staffs are super helpful. Can help with transportation too. Would love to stay here again when I am back in Pondicherry.
