Lit confortable
Personnel qui fait de son mieux Très peu équipé, tres difficile de faire la cuisine dans ces conditions juste un micro-ondes
Ensemble qui a besoin d'être rafraîchi

- Aurélia (8/5): - The place is great, close to everything in town. Staff is friendly and helpful. Appartment are big enough to stay for longer period of time and accommodate till 5 persons. It's all very clean. Breakfasts are included both indian and international. Some appartements do not get lights from outside check if it's important for you.

- ChrisJ62 (6/5): Relativ Zu teuer für das Gebotene - Freundlicher Empfang Frühstück geordert laut Liste dann plötzlich nicht lieferbar
Nur eine Tasse Kaffee pro Person man durfte nichts nachbestellen
Entweder hatte man Butter mit bestellen können oder nur Marmelade
Eine riesen Baustelle den ganzen Tag über Lärm Mittagsruhe konnte man vergessen
Zimmerservice war für jeden Tag angesagt wir haben aber nie einen solchen erhalten
- Jasdeepti (10/5): - I loved the cosy- comfortable stay, just walkable distance from the Promenade beach. The staff was very nice, respectful and polite.
Breakfast served was nice & hot.
- Natalya (10/5): - Замечательный отель с прекрасным расположением! Две отдельные спальни, гостиная, кухня, новый лифт, вкусные завтраки. Чисто, уютно, отзывчивый персонал. Основные достопримечательности в пешей доступности. Благодарю за отличный отдых!

- VAHINI (9/5): -
- Lisa (8/5): Nice location, nice kitchen. - The location was fantastic and having a kitchen was nice too The woman that checked me in was CONSTANTLY mis informing me. Passive aggressive even after I tipped her an extra 100 rupees.
- Lisa (9/5): If you have cash it’s a great spot - Location and kitchen. That my charge card wasn’t accepted as this is the FIRST time in the many locations I’ve stayed in India over a year+ period of time it wouldn’t work. Receptionist gave wrong info on where the ATM was.
- Aneeth (7/5): - Location Price and breakfast
- Madhur (5/5): Passable - The staff was really good and cooperative, meeting all demands and requests. The breakfast was also well prepared. The location was good close to old town. There were a lot of mosquitos, the room on the ground floor doesn't have any ventilation and there was a smell of paint and dampness in the room.
- Fabienne (9/5): Hôtel bien central mais dans une rue très calme avec un personnel d’une grande gentillesse - Nous avons aimé la chaleur et la bienveillance du personnel. Nous avons aimé aussi l’emplacement très central de l’hôtel. Le petit dej est très copieux. Rien
- Bhuvanesh (8/5): -

- Gaddam (10/5): Exceptional -
- Vivek (8/5): Value for money - Located on the heart of white town Mosquitoe is the only concern, they don’t let u sleep peacefully , have a mosquitoe repellent handy
- Vamsi (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ishan (1/5): Overpriced property and pathetic experience. - Worst property ever experienced while travelling, no hygiene, no supportive staff, rude behaviour by the manager. Everything, the property is very small, no ventilation and there are mosquitoes everywhere, washrooms are smaller than the one found in the train and equally unhygienic, jet didn't work, no balcony (guess what ? They converted the balcony/utility area into washroom and it opens directly into the kitchen. ) The handwash dispenser was filled with dishwasher liquid and was too dirty to touch. In short this is an overpriced property. Please avoid staying here.
- Stephen (8/5): Location and staff were great - facilities were fair to good. - Excellent location and friendly staff. My room was really a spacious apartment with all facilities. The A/C didn't respond to the controls but later I figured it out.

- Jared (6/5): Pleasant - overall property The bathroom and toilet too small ,also the wash sink it was too too small all water dripping out on the floor when u wash ur face
- Rakesh (9/5): Superb - The location & facility is good. Its 5 minute walk to promenade beach & good for evening stroll.Rooms are big & spacious . Very good ventilation too. Parking is there in front of the building & very convenient to park .We carried our electric stove with some utensils & was able to cook for our kid. Owner who stays below is extremely humble & helpful. You open your balcony door & see a 100 year old beautiful church is a bliss The linen & towels could have been cleaner. We used our bedsheet only hence didn't feel it much though.
- Akhilesh (7/5): Good - Hotel is good at the prime location. Very helpful staffs. Little delay in things to receive when we ask to the reception. Cleaning was not done any day during our stay. But overall good.
- Ajoy (10/5): Exceptional - Location and Breakfast Pondicherry is overcrowded
- Aditi (7/5): Clean and well lit rooms. - It was spacious and clean. The staff was very kind. One of the sides of the property had a Church right behind it, which is using loudspeaker in the morning around, the workers there start cleaning around 4AM and the prayers start around 6:00AM.. It disturbed our sleep
The staff was very kind to offer us to change the room to the other side.
- Alwin (8/5): Pleasant - Spacious Rooms, Clean Toilet/Bathroom, Polite Staff. We were provided with hassle free Early checkin :) ,Lift, Breakfast, Location At least one of the rooms should have had a Standard sized wardrobe. There is one in the Hall however it is only for utilities and cannot accomodate Bags.
- Prasanna (8/5): Simple, clean and spacious stay, Value for money - Simple, Clean and spacious rooms. Prime location. Walkable to the promenade beach, Aurobindo Ashram, Manakula Vinayakar temple and shopping areas The facilities mentioned about the kitchen was missing. It only had a functioning refrigerator. Didn’t have a stove or oven. I asked for a kettle which they couldn’t provide
- Ganesan (8/5): Very good -
- Shashank (9/5): Superb -
- Ramkumar (9/5): Superb - Location is nearby major happening place and service is good.
- Satyajeet (10/5): Exceptional -
- Satyajeet (10/5): Exceptional -
- Wahegbam (9/5): Good place to stay near white town - Our stay was exceptional. The staff were welcoming, and the room provided utmost comfort with amenities. The dining experience was a delight, featuring a variety of local cuisine. Huge 2 bedrooms with two king size beds. Located centrally, it was convenient for sightseeing and business. Highly recommended for a memorable stay. Suggestion to the management: Information given in the description/listing should be updated time to time
Recommendation to visitors:
1. If you want a kitchen, call the property before you finalize the booking as you may end up paying money for using a gas cylinder on daily basis.
2. The management team needs to be quick with their response and action. All clients won't be the same.
- William (10/5): Exceptional - It was a pleasure to stay in this fully equipped appartment, it is good to be able to prepare your own food in a long trip. All is working and well furnished. The staff was very kind and helpful also. Thank you
- Luis (7/5): Not luxurious, but fine if you spend most of your days out - We ordered a double room even though there was just two of us. This was an accident, but we're glad we did because we we had a full living room area and kitchen with a fridge which was a pretty good deal considering the price.
The hotel is decently placed to walk to all the major attractions. You do have to cross a busy road, but it's totally fine and there are lovely colourful buildings on the road to take pictures of whilst you wait for the busy Indian traffic! It might have been a misunderstanding but we had to pay for the room as soon as we arrived in cash, which felt a little odd.
Because we ended up mostly visiting White Town, we had to walk the same 15 ish minute route a few times per day, but that isn't the hotel's problem! The best places to eat aren't necessarily located near the hotel, but if you don't mind the walk it's fine.
- Partha (8/5): Good stay..excellent location. - the location of the property is apt. though the property design seems a bit weird yet for a traveller who wish to book just to grab a night sleep after a long day of sightseeing, its one of the best option available Parking can be an issue if there are lot of guests with 4 wheelers. but not a huge challenge. the towels need to be replaced as I could feel they are almost worn out.
- Milan (7/5): Good -
- Joseph (8/5): Very good - The one bedroom was excellent and kept up to our expectation. Stay was in the centre of the city and accessible to main places. Walkable to the rock beach. Pondicherry is a small city usually can be explored in 4 days but there are famous outlets which can take a little extra days.
Overall the experience was ok but nothing like Goa. I never get bored in Goa. Price of the stay was a bit on the higher side.
- Rajesh (8/5): Good location, polite stuff and good service - Location, staff were very polite and cooperative Water provided by facilities had todpoles.
- Dandugala (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ben (10/5): Perfect pad for a group - Perfect hub for exploring Pondicherry from, with a stocked kitchen, a living room and 2 comfortable bedrooms.
We had a lot of nice evenings having some drinks of the balcony.
The team were very helpful and friendly
- Maphibanri (10/5): Exceptional -
- Pradyumn (9/5): Superb -
- Dharan (9/5): Superb - Behaviour of staff Should have restaurant also
- David (10/5): Exceptional -
- Shylaja (10/5): excellent - homely atmosphere
centre to all important tourist spots
walkable distance to rock beach. French colony and mission street etc
good service
worth the price
- Prashanth (10/5): We stayed here for 3-days 2 nights. Rented 2-BHK house, well maintained. Good Service from Staff. - Almost all tourist attraction places are within 2kms surrounding from this property. Nothing to mention
- Meher (8/5): Very good - Our stay at Manora Residency was nice. Staff were very helpful and nice. Location is very good. All the Cafes and Beach are at walkable distance.
- Baisakhi (10/5): Amazing stay - I like the room, it's neat and clean and also the staff's are very co-operative,kind. I suggest whoever visit to pondicherry they should stay in this place only. It's very near to whitetown,rock beach,ashram market etc.
- Mousumi (10/5): Exceptional - Great hospitality and very easy access to all the places. Love the ambience.
- Debajit (10/5): Awesome stay it was. Staffs are really helpful. - Staffs were awesome and they are very helpful.
