Très confortable, mauvais service
Pros:

Moderne, confortable, bon petit déjeuner

Cons:

Le service est totalement démotivé , le staff ne note pas les demandes et les suit pas, il faut constamment relancer. Le petit déjeuner est le chaos il semble que ce soit la haute saison aka we de Pâques.

Superb modern hotel with a fabulous roof top restaurant.
Pros:

Very modern hotel with excellent facilities and a spacious, comfortable room. We loved the roof top restaurant which served the most amazing Pan Asian food. Great location for exploring Puducherry.

Cons:

The ground floor restaurant gets extremely busy at breakfast time.

Ambience good, restaurant services opportunities for improvement
Pros:

Ambience, front lobby staff was excellent especially Ms Gayatri, ever helpful.

Cons:

The restaurant service. There is a language problem. They seem to be inexperienced. Ms. Shabda was the only one who seemed to know what service means
It would have been good if Mr. Raghul spoke to customers since he was sitting in the restaurant and observing things

Excellent hotel worth its 5 stars (stayed 6 nights)
Pros:

very large rooms, good sound isolation (although you hear the city noise a bit and one should avoid the side of the mosque..). Excellent shower. Most of the staff was very friendly, both in restaurants and at reception. Breakfast was excellent. We stayed for 6 nights. After 3 nights we asked another room to be away from the mosque and construction work presently taking place at that side also. It was immediately accepted with a smile .

Cons:

There was no garden or so to stay outside but that is probably true for other hotels in the city as well
