Terrible service, no hot water and there was a grounding problem resulting in us getting electric shocks while touching the taps!! The manager was nowhere to help us out. A regrettable experience. Money could have been spent better elsewhere... More

If I start recalling my experiences at this place, people will probably stop visiting pondicherry, not just the neem tree!! We had a very "good" welcome by the electricity wires hanging in front of the gate...Inspite of booking the rooms online and paying the advance on time, we had to wait for 2-3 hours before we got rooms..and even dose...

I wouldn't call their Mexican cuisine was authentic but it tasted Mexican! We liked the hospitality and the ambiance of the restaurant. looking at the usage of bamboo with... More

It was my 5th trip to Pondicherry with my family and for our bad luck we had booked this place called Neem Tree. On arrival at the place (Friday Oct 7th) we started realizing the bad state of the place. The only prompt service, we received was to make us pay the balance amount before we get to realize how...

We reached The Neem Tree hotel at 9.45PM after a 7 hour drive, only to hear "Sorry sir, the restaurant's closed. We close down at 9:30PM". "STARVE" is what ran through my mind! The town was a couple of miles away and was not worth venturing out again in the sweltering night heat of Pondicherry. There was just ONE guy... More

I and two other friends wanted to crash at Pondicherry (now known as Puducherry) for the weekend. We had made out hotel reservations through makemytrip.com at Hotel Coramandal, however, as the hotel later was found to be 100% occupied, they put up at a hotel called THE NEEM TREE. It approximately 4 kms north of the French colony and if... More

I stayed at The Neem Tree with my girlfriends and we had a wonderful time. The staff were absolutely wonderful and helpful even calling us an auto in the night when we wanted to go into Pondicherry for dinner. The rooms are simple and if you are looking for a fancy bed and first class facilities, this is not the... More

Neem tree is an average place to stay, however I didn't find it as value for money. Whats good : Food & bathroom Whats not : Cleaning not done in the room as part of room service. I would suggest to find an accomodation near french quarters as that part of Pondi is really nice. More
