It is an old bungalow that was supposedly used by the Governor. The hotel has built an excellent team of very friendly and guest service oriented staff who went out of their way to make my stay enjoyable. The kitchen team is extremely talented and all dishes were superbly cooked. The only thing that needs improvement is curbing the mosquito menace. Pondicherry is awash with mosquitoes and I was very concerned with picking up Dengue or some such infection. The team gave me Odomos & used a coil - to no avail. They could learn some protocols used in forest retreats like spraying citronella & lemongrass to keep mosquitoes away without leaving a bad odour in the premises. ##### milind Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Aug 17, 2022 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Look elsewhere, does not live up to reputation For being one of the more expensive options in town, we expected much more. Our top floor room with frosted glass walls was dark and incredibly swampy. The mattress was uncomfortable and the sheets/pillows were moist from the humidity in the room. The shower was really gross with a dirty/moldy plastic mat, no hand towels, and almost zero water pressure. There were dead/dying bugs all over the room and an overwhelming chemical smell that gave me a headache. Breakfast was supposed to start at 7:30 but no one was around one of the mornings, and we paid extra for breakfast. Had dinner in the restaurant and it was just okay, nothing special and again, not worth the premium price compared to other restaurants in the neighborhood. Would not recommend this place to friends or family, particularly given the steep up-charge and the dismal state of maintenance. Service was well intentioned and everyone was generally friendly, but it's not enough to overcome the management issues. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Sridhar Oct 13, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities N ##### Sridhar Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Jette Mar 21, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Kan varmt anbefales Meget hyggeligt og indbydende sted med et super skønt personale.

Pondicherry and Le Dupleix were perfect. It has the feeling of being back in the 1930s. My room was large, its walls hand painted with trees, a huge four-poster bed, all the furniture antique; a big desk for me to write. The bathroom was a little antique but worked well. The place oozed atmosphere and the staff were charming and helpful. The laundry was done well, and breakfast was excellent. There was a pop duo in the evenings at the weekend who performed old favourites well. The restaurant was average, and I preferred to eat out in a town with wonderful food. Restaurant service was a little slow, but there was no rush. The hotel is perfectly positioned in White Town, five minutes from the Promenade and five minutes from the hubbub of the town. There’s an arrangement with the Promenade Hotel to use its small swimming pool. I would have no hesitation in staying again. ##### William Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Eilert Mar 2, 2023 Liked: Property conditions & facilities #### Super Lage mit kalter Dusche und MangelService Das Dupeix liegt schön zentral, nur 3 Minuten von der Promenade entfernt. Man kann alles Wesentliche zu Fuß erreichen. Beim check in um 14:00 (offizielle check in Zeit) war unser Zimmer nicht fertig, wir waren etwas enttäuscht und man bot uns ein angeblich identisches Zimmer an. Das erschien uns sehr klein und wir bestanden auf unser gebuchtes Zimmer, das tatschlich ca 50% grösser war! Kleine „Verarschung“? Wir mussten 30 Minten warten und man fragte höflich, ob wir einen Wunsch hätten - ja, 2 Kaffee aufs Haus wären nett - das verneinte man aber! Beim morgendlichem Duschen stand uns immer nur kaltes Wasser zur Verfügung, der Service im Restaurant war nett, aber alles nur im Schneckentempo. Auf den Gängen standen den ganzen Tag Essensreste an den eigentlich schönen Sitzplätzen herum, im Restaurant hielt man es nicht für nötig, die alten Servietten und Gläser der vorherigen Gäste abzuräumen oder gar den Tisch für uns abzuwischen - sehr schade- hoffentlich liest das Management diese Bewertung. Besseren Service und Top- Essen haben wir zb in Villa Santhi erlebt- nächstes Mal. ##### Eilert Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Bahia Principe Fantasia Tenerife - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Miguel-De-Abona-Hotels-Bahia-Principe-Fantasia-Tenerife-All-Inclusive.h21628653.Hotel-Information) > > [Motels Nipigon](https://www.expedia.ca/Nipigon-Motels.d3000451656-aaMotels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Alila Mayakoba](https://www.expedia.ca/Playa-Del-Carmen-Hotels-Alila-Mayakoba.h15963147.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Gander](https://www.expedia.ca/Gander-Hotels.d4056.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Downtown Nashville](https://www.expedia.ca/Downtown-Nashville-Nashville-Hotels.0-n6059741-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Esqina Cosmopolitan Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Lisbon-District-Hotels-Esqina-Cosmopolitan-Lodge.h35081980.Hotel-Information) > > [Kwa'Lilas Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Port-Hardy-Hotels-KwaLilas-Hotel.h11803079.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Guelph](https://www.expedia.ca/Guelph-Hotels.d8237.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in King City](https://www.expedia.ca/King-City-Hotels.d6024014.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [5 Star Hotels in Las Vegas](https://www.expedia.ca/5Star-Las-Vegas-Hotels.s50-0-d178276.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hyatt Place Montreal - Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Montreal-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-Montreal-Downtown.h41239.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Kuala Lumpur](https://www.expedia.ca/Kuala-Lumpur-Hotels-Hilton-Kuala-Lumpur.h901881.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheap Hotels in Banff](https://www.expedia.ca/Banff-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-0-d10550-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Nakelo Treasure Island Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Treasure-Island-Hotels-Treasure-Island-Resort.h3870.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheap Hotels in Calgary](https://www.expedia.ca/Calgary-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-0-d178245-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Victoria Ocean Pointe Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Victoria-Hotels-Delta-Hotels-By-Marriott-Victoria-Ocean-Pointe-Resort.h24035.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Phoenix (PHX) to Los Angeles (LAX)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/phx/lax/phoenix-to-los-angeles) > > [Saudi Arabian Airlines](https://www.expedia.ca/Saudia-Flights.cSV.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Mississauga](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/7954/flights-from-mississauga) > > [Air Canada Vancouver (YVR) to Ottawa (YOW) flights](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flight-routes/air-canada-from-vancouver-intl-to-macdonald-cartier-intl/ac/yvr/yow) > > [Porter Airlines Montreal (YUL) to Goffs (YHZ) flights](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flight-routes/porter-airlines-from-pierre-elliott-trudeau-intl-to-stanfield-intl/pd/yul/yhz) > > [Flights from Detroit (DTW) to Phoenix (PHX)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/dtw/phx/detroit-to-phoenix) > > [Flights from Winnipeg (YWG) to Seeduwa - Katunayake (CMB)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ywg/cmb/winnipeg-to-colombo) ### Cars > [Pickup Car Rentals in Moose Jaw](https://www.expedia.ca/Pickup-Car-Rentals-In-Moose-Jaw.d10588-tPickup.Car-Rental-Guide-Class) ### Activities ### General
