We went to Pondicherry in a group of 8. Annamalai International was one of the few hotels that was offering a swimming pool at a decent rate. The hotel is pretty good for any kind of any kind of crowd. Since there is a profusion of good heritage hotels in the city, one might want to check into Annamalai International... More

A good family/business hotel. Located 10-15 mins away from the main beach area of Pondicherry. The staff is courteous and helpful. Explore the French Area for best restaurants in the city and avoid eating at your own hotel. Not very far away from the main bus stop where buses for Chennai are available.

The food is very delicious anyone in pondicherry needs to visit at least once for lunch /dinner overall very satisfying The hotel ambience is wonderful. The service is to be mentioned Prawns fry need special mention

Breakfast wasn't too inspiring and a final irritation was the receptionist arguing that I had made a call to Cochin and wanting to charge me for it... More

stayed for 1 night in the hotel. the check in was fast and reception staffs were helpful and polite. hotel was and well maintained. service was quick. food in the restaurant was ok. the morning buffet was delicious but limited spread. worth the cost paid. would stay in this hotel again.

We went with along with our family for a function ... Quick check in and good room . Bath room could be better...bed quality was fine... Specially to mention the food ... Outstanding ... Lunch was too good ... Only suggestion - staff need to be more professional and lot of training required for them ...
