"After reviewing lots of hotels in Pondicherry I found very positive reviews for this hotel. I was traveling with infant of 8 months old along with family members, so I wanted to make sure hotel should provide basic facility for infant. After staying for 3 days , I can say this is one of the best hotel in Pondicherry in many ways. It’s in prime location so everything is nearby. Hotel has nice restaurant and serves nice breakfast. Rooms are near and clean. Staff members are always available to help your. Service is very prompt.
What I didn’t like is they charged quite high for infant milk which 260rs for a ltr milk. Which is too high, however rest all is excellent. "

"the accord pondicherry-labeled as the accord puducherry on the giant letters that cover the building is hard to miss. every tuk tuk driver will know where this place is. you will have to take the tuk tuk to enjoy the beach activities and tourist shops. each tuk tuk ride will cost about 100 rupees. the amenities make staying at this place well worthwhile-almost no one uses the pool and steam room so you will enjoy privacy. the rooms are clean with western standards for bathroom and bed. you may have trouble connecting to the wireless internet but there is a supplied ethernet cable which will give you speeds approaching internet in the western world.
around the hotel, there are shops and restaurants that are more suited to the local population. eating in local restaurants will bring you local prices. the only minus is spending 200 to 400 rupees a day riding the tuk tuk to the beach. if you factor this into the cost between staying at a nice hotel on the beach, you will still come out ahead financially. i would stay here again."

"We went there for the weekend of Aug 15, 2016. The place is a decent one to spend a weekend in Pondicherry. The rooms were really nice with sufficient space. It was clean and hygienic. The pool area was also good (note I am a non swimmer). They have other facilities like gym and spa, though we didn't try any of them. They are located at a good place from where everything is approachable.
They still need to work on their breakfast spread menu and other facilities. Breakfast was fairly limited, both in terms of number of items and taste. Plus, they seemed to have availability issues with towels.
If they can work on these things in the near term, it would improve the guest experience significantly. For now, a 7 on 10 seems an apt rating. "

"When it was built it was a very modern resort. While is is being kept clean signs of aging may be seen. Still perfect if you want to get away and hide from street noise, pesky vendors and just relax. It is fairly far from Puducherry so you probably will stay within the perimeter of the resort and food is only what restaurant will offer. Food is good though so as long as you OK paying 500 rupees for a main course - you will not be disappointed. Beach is also just 5 minutes away but if you thinking of swimming - go further from parked boats. Fishermen use the the beach as toilet. Given that resort is in India - I understand five star rating.."

"It’s not star hotel.
Bit costly, otherwise good. Restaurant is also costly. Though lots of good restaurants around hotel.
It’s not old colonial construction but new construction with colonial type furniture.
Staff is not professional like other star hotels.

"Had an excellent stay at the property and I will definitely recommend booking a room here. The property is new and everything is really clean and tidy with all the facilities you need for a comfortable stay. The staff is very friendly and extremely hospitable which was a great plus point!
The food and dining services are amazing and I will say compared to the famous dining spots in Pondicherry, this hotel managed to beat all of them in taste and quality of materials. Every dish we tasted was delicious and making you wanting to come back for more! Overall a very good stay and I definitely encourage you to book this property. "

"We checked in on 31st Dec and left on 5th Jan 2018. Everything is good except new year celebration, gala dinner is sheer waste of money. Pathetic food and mismanagement. Other days, everything is ok including food. Staff is very courteous. They changed our two room booking to a suite having two rooms. Food quality on new year night was pathetic. They are very short of staff, cutlery and service. Everything was half cooked. Since price of Gala dinner was Rs 1000 plus tax, we didnot mind but could not eat food also. Payment was taken outside itself.
Rooms including suites are in need of repair of electrical sockets, bed head rests are loose and dancing if you take support while sitting.
Loccation is good. Entire pondicherry and Beach etc are 15 min drive.

Auroville is inhabited by over two thousand spiritualists who abide by the culture and lifestyle of the city.
