Aurodhan | Art Gallary and Cultural Experiences

The property was 5 mins walking distance from the Pondicherry rock beach, and in a good location. There were many eateries 2 mins walking distance from the property, with delivery coverage by Zepto, Zomato too (if needed). The host was reachable over the phone for our queries too, as needed some guidance on location, timing and parking. At the property the person who manages (Parash) was an excellent host, provided us required assistance whenever needed. He stays at the property, so you would find it very helpful. Property itself is very neat and well maintained, we got two rooms at the terrace with a good view outside. This place had hosted many prominent individuals in the past, and we loved the art and vibe of this place a lot. The common area has a microwave, refrigerator, utensils, cooking arrangement, drinking water (Aquaguard), and dining space you can speak to the host and use. Parking was on the road outside, we had a Tata Safari sized car but didn't face any issue with on road parking. Some people reviewed about room having no attached bathroom, which is correct for few small room - you can check your rooms pic before booking or speak to host with room number and confirm. We got both rooms with attached spacious bathroom, so didn't face any issues. We loved the stay and would book again on our next stay.

Pros: the house is amazing, everywhere you look, you see paintings and sculptures. I have never stayed in any Aurodhan | Art Gallary and Cultural Experiences or homestay that is so artistic. The furnitures are vintage but well maintained. The name art gallery is justified. Location: it's very close to the beach and french town. Lots of restaurants are just 5 min walk away. Caretaker: the person is nice and welcoming. He knows that he is guarding so many precious artwork, so he is alert but never rude. Cons: there is a strange smell in the room. One gets used to it but the owner can install a room freshner in the rooms to mitigate this. Why not invest this much extra to mitigate such a small issue in an otherwise fantastic place

Our stay at aurodhan art gallery was unique, amazing pleasant, we got a room open to the terrace, we could watch the sun rise( of course, a little hindered by the neighborhood houses) it was a beautiful view. Coming to the room, it has home like vibes, we spent 2 nights, it felt like our own bedroom. The bed and dohar was comfortable. The prime attraction is the vintage decor, every wall, every table adorns vintage art pieces, mirrors and many more. The reception is nothing short of a museum with exquisite paintings hanging on the walls. It's surely "fantartstic!

We arrived early and were accommodated immediately, though we were charged an extra ₹1,000 for early check-in. The room was ready, and our host, Parash, was always just a text away for any assistance. The place is spotless and well-maintained, with a charming colonial-era ambiance. The antique furniture, warm lighting, and stunning paintings made it feel like an art gallery. The geyser worked perfectly, although the Wifi was bad. Overall, a pleasant experience!

It was a beautiful experience. Great place, such neat, clean rooms. The decor, the art is amazing. The owner has put in a lot of effort to make it look aesthetic and artsy. The caretaker was also readily available. There was access to the stove, kettle, and filter watch. The location is very close to Rock beach. would definitely recommend this place

I wanted to share feedback on my recent stay. The location was excellent, making it easy to access local attractions. Your staff was incredibly helpful and friendly, enhancing our experience. The room was superb and in beautiful condition, providing a very comfortable stay.

The best stay and totally loved and it’s budget friendly

clean, peaceful . Good for art lovers, sea view from balcony. No food available, but restaurants are nearby you can order and have it in the dining area.

Lovely location, 1 minute from rock beach, the place is awesome with all the wooden and antiques in your room, the host and caretaker are very humble. (for north indians best place as both speak hindi)

It was nice, heritage & antique feel, really worth for one who travel as couples also the serve is really awesome

The stay was truly magical. Never experienced such a peaceful experience before. I recommend everyone to book your room here its worth for it.

Very good experience as far as furniture’s and fixtures are concrete. Very neat and clean. Just need to have arrangement of shampoos and body wash as most of the travellers don’t carry such stuff

We were 10 of us, it was a new fantastic experience to have property to ourselves. Art collection displayed was of good collection. Lalith the host is a nice warm person.

Location is very nice, close to Beach area & all prominent places is near-by. Property is well maintained.

Thanks for upgrading our room! The stay was beautiful and we’re definitely coming back
