    A beautiful artgallery in a house

    rachita m.group

    We had a brief stay, but we really enjoyed it. The interior and ambiance were pleasant, creating a contemporary vibe. The space was neat and clean. It's a must-visit location if you're looking to relax and feel at home. The host was also polite and very helpful.

    Wonderful property with excellent host at great lo

    dipanjan r.group

    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.

    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

    Good Stay

    vishal r.couple

    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!

    Overpriced, not value for money at all. Location is the only plus point

    kshma l.loyalty-iconfamily

    It's just basic rooms with an attached bathroom. Property is quite old and lacks basic maintenance. For eg, bathroom door doesn't close, taps look old and worn out. The access is only thru stairs and rooms are on 2nd and 3rd floor. No food arrangement. However, it is located very near to white town so all eateries and rock beach are at walking distance. Definitely overpriced.

    Haunted House

    avijit g.loyalty-iconfamily

    My stay was an absolute nightmare. I arrived around 10:30 PM after a long day of travel, only to be told my room was overbooked. They moved me to a different building, which was poorly marked and hard to find in a sketchy, unsafe area. When I finally got to the room, it was disgusting—there was a foul smell, and to my horror, I found multiple cockroaches crawling around. The room had a creepy, haunted vibe with flickering lights and strange noises, making it impossible to relax. There was no food offered, and to make matters worse, there was no security or even ID checks at the entrance. I felt completely unsafe. I wasn’t expecting much, but this was beyond unacceptable. I left at 6:30 AM the next morning, just hours after checking in. I will never stay here again and wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

    Property is at great location with walking distance from the beach, rooms were cleaned and maintained however almost all the doors including the bathroom doors are in a bad state, it is a task to open or close them. Also there is no lift. There is a huge kitchen where utensils gets cleaned regularly and referigerator also is available in the common area. The caretaker paras was very cooperative and also quickly arrived to help us when we got locked out of the room.

    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!
