Almost at the seaside,towards the end of Francois martin street, resides this beautiful house owned by Mrs Dutta. We had gone through a lot of options on tripadvisor and finally decided on this house. And we were just overjoyed to find out that our choice really was that good. Its a triple storey building, and our host lives in the... More

I just came back from Pondicherry today morning and felt I should write this review before anything else. I stayed at Vatika guest house for 1 day. The hostess - Miss Datta - is the warmest host. She opened up her kitchen and dining area to guests like me and made them feel like home. The room was spacious and... More

I had heard about Vatika Guest House from friends, hence my confidence in booking myself and three friends there for our recent stay in Pondicherry. Not requiring TV nor pool, we were very happy to enjoy the warm atmosphere, the charming and comfortable rooms, and the underlying attitude of sincere care for us from the owner, Datta.

Close to Beach and French Quarter 3. Availability of room when i started searching for a place just couple of days before :) .... Above all, it was... More
