“Small & Beautiful Property”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012

Located in a very strategic locale, 2-3 minutes walk to the beach road, to Aurabindo Ahram, and in the heart of the heritage village this heritage property lives true to the french architecture of the town. This Heritage House has been converted into a elegant hotel with some very smart architecture. They have a good restaurant inside and with an outdoor seating on an elevated attic beautifully designed under a tree canopy. Rooms have well designed small and tidy modern wash rooms and meets the needs of a modern day traveler. Food is very good in the restaurant and is a must have. Their breakfast spread is very average. A must stay location at Pondy.

“A French Experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 January 2012

A very beautiful hotel based on the the french design and taste, this hotel offers a vivid experience for a business or leisure visit. Highly recommended in case you are visiting pondicherry for the first time. Food and service is no doubt flawless and gives an french experience of quality and peace. The prices are also not high and are reasonable enough.

Room Tip: a room with a duplex interior is the best to njoy life a french style.

“Nice ex-French property”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 January 2012

I liked this hotel a lot! We lived in a deluxe room which was spacious and clean and had minibar. Service was good and even the hotel restaurant was good (for variation you can go to the Surguru Spot opposite to the hotel). Attractions are nearby and rickshaws are plentiful on JN Street.

Only complaint I have is that the restaurant terrace is in the courtyard and makes a lot of noise to the rooms.

Room Tip: Have a deluxe room, they are much better than street level standard rooms which are dark

“The stay was very good”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 January 2012

We loved your place and the stay was just perfect and nothing more to ask for, Clean room and well maintained. I would suggest you need to train your hotel serving guys. The guy who takes the order hardly know what the food you serve looks like. Your steaks didnt have sizzlers even after we sat outside. The price of the food you charge and the price in Promenade is the same but i anytime would suggest food in Promenade, the only reason for taste and service.
Your serving guys needs to know how to welcome the guest and serve what is ordered then being scarstic.
I anytime suggest your place for stay to anyone comming to Pondy.. :) Just on the main street, well maintained room .. u feel u lived in french colony!! Thanks

“Charme in the middle of Pondicherry”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 January 2012

Our stay at Hotel du Parc was very confortable. The location is perfect. Situated in the core of the city, the hotel is just a stone's throw away from the shopping area, the sea promenade and Sri Aurbindo's Ashram. Moreover it was very pleaseant to have dinner each evening at the courtyard, among those impressive trees ans palms and to be served by such friendly employees. I would surely come back again!

Room Tip: Room # 2 is huge and has a tall ceiling. The A/C unit is sometimes too loud.
