"Beautiful rooms, very comfortable and nicely maintained. Interesting, historic building in great location - easy walking distance to many sights in White Town. Nice restaurant food and great cocktails, but a la carte breakfast was not available - only buffet, which was simple but good. Management very friendly and helpful however, restaurant staff not particularly attentive so service could be slow at times. But all in all a very nice place to stay in the centre of Pondy."

"Lovely small hotel on the ocean. Try and get a front room with a balcony and ocean view. It does have a lot of steps to climb to the reception in the rooms. All areas were spotlessly clean and the hotel was very quiet. Staff were very welcoming and helpful. The hotel is situated just inside White Town / French quarter and it was easy to walk to all the sites. "

"The hotel room was very spacious, clean and we had even a fridge with a Minibar. Waterboiler was there and coffee powder/tea. AC was in the room and a fan. There was also a big separate room with a wardrobe. The bathroom was western standard. The hotel seemed relatively new, also the remarkable elevator, which brought us silently to the 4th floor. Only downside was that there was no breakfast included, but nearby are many places where you can have breakfast. On the 5th floor was a gastro bar...

"The location on the promenade was great. No proper lobby or reception. A cafe at the entrance which serves as lobby. Not all rooms have view and most have partial sea view. Lovely room, very comfortable beds, very clean and fantastic staff. Breakfast was very basic and not great. Better to eat elsewhere. "

Recent Reviews in French Institute

5/5 Excellent

"Handily located in the delightful city of Puducherry, the Atithi is modern and comfortable. It is not a resort hotel but has great staff, spacious rooms and a great roof-top swimming pool. If I had any issues, the pool could do with some shady areas. Cleanliness in the big rooms and bathrooms was generally good though they didn’t seem to often wipe the windows! Quite a lot of smears. Breakfast was excellent."

5/5 Excellent

"This hotel was great for a short stay. The hotel itself lacks a 4star luxury feeling, but it has more of a small boutique hotel feel. It's also a great location. It's a walkable distance to the boardwalk/ocean front, which was nice. At night, the area was lively and safe. We walked around and even went to a few shops then came back and had a specialty coffee beverage at the hotel restaurant. If you choose to sit outside when you dine, the view is beautiful. Also, we received SPA treatment here which I thought was FANTASTIC. I did have to wait for my treatment for a long time, but I did not prebook. I chose the coffee scrub down, and it was excellent!"
