I stayed with my family in a suite room in Room No. 102 from Jan 22 to Jan 23. The interior decor of the suite room is very contemprorary and elegant and has a spacious bathroom. Very clean rooms, Manager and staff all are very cooperative. They speak English & Hindi. We had complimentary breakfast, has an wide array of breakfast. Peaceful location. Only con which I found is its distance from beach. Promenade beach is approx 15 minutes by auto and Chunnambar backwater is around 15 minutes by cab. Auroville is approx 16 kms from the hotel. Quite far from Villupuram railway station, approx 1.5 hrs by cab. But the hotel gets a High 5 for its cleanliness, service and food.

My experience was satisfactory. I had booked a Suite. It was a decent room with not so good Bath Room. Their Manager is very nice person and personally guides you and gives attention to your queries not related to hotel also. They serve good food in meals but they do not have separate restaurant.

My travel agent booked this hotel for 1 night stay during our 10 days trip. The first impression of the hotel especially the setting and ambience in the lobby was good. Location is a little outskirt from any attraction especially the beach area. Good wifi connection throughout our stay. However, my dissatisfaction beginned after we checked in at about 5 pm, the 1st room given had an unpleasant smell the moment we entered. We realized that the bathroom not been cleaned (maybe from the previous stay), the rubbish bins still had trash left inside. Immediately i requested for a change of room. After some examination, we were given another room on the same floor. We were not completely satisfied with the cleanliness of the new room as well but since we were in a hurry to leave to the beach, we left our luggage and went out. When we came back, we found cockroach in the bathroom and after dealing with that we found used tissue on the bed. Checked out very early the next morning, thus had no chance to have breakfast. Hope the management look into some possibilities in ensuring cleanliness of the rooms.

I had to stay in this hotel, since i was on a business trip and the company i was visiting had booked the room for me. The room is smelly, the sheets were dirty with blood stains, the pillows were stained with large yellow stains, the floor and bathroom were dirty, the toilet broken, and cobwebs were all over the ceiling.....stay away from this horrible place

There was a sudden plan to go to Pondicherry and I booked this hotel online because of two reasons- Very near to office where I had to visit, and very attractive tariff. I checked in early morning, and it was hassle free. The room I was allotted was not in good shape. I shared my concern with reception staff. They said that standard rooms are occupied and once available, I will be shifted. A suite was available and I was given option for a small amount of money, which I accepted. The suite was very spacious. And for the amount I paid, it was extravagant! In short, here's what you would like about this hotel 1. Very cheap. 2. Near to bus stand (about 2 kms), but in a quiet location. 3. Spacious rooms. 4. Good quality veg food available. Not a full fledged restaurant though. Cleanliness maintained in restaurant kitchen. I have checked it. 5. Hotel staff very courteous and helpful. 6. Complimentary breakfast is sufficient, tasty. 7. Wifi is complimentary and works in the rooms also. 8. Hotel is smoke free and alcohol free as per a notice posted at the reception. 9. Parking facility with security is available. 10. Located in a decent locality. So safety shouldn't be a concern.
What you wont like 1. Since its not right on the tourist location, some wont like it. Nearest beach is about 3-4 kms from here.
I found the property to be good value for money. Highly recommended for people travelling solo or with family.

Meals - I enjoyed Veg meals there , its a buffay system , but the quality of food is very good.

We enjoyed the stay at Hotel Abi Krishna. It was a pleasant experience. The best part of the Hotel is its prime location. The rooms are neat and clean. Very quite atmosphere and very relaxing, very kind staff. No hassles in checking in and entire affair was over in less than 10 minutes. Tariffs have been reasonable. To any part of the city one can get a public bus. There is nothing much to complain but at the same time nothing much to praise too. Overall it is a good hotel for comfortable stay
