Located in the old French town along Suffren Street, Villa Shanti is just a 3-minute walk from the famous Promenade Beach. It operates a 24-hour front desk and provides free Wi-Fi access in the entire property.

Great location within walking distance (or by auto) for all major sights. The staff were excellent and could not do enough for you, always smiling. The breakfast was fabulous with so much food; it is definitely a hotel for foodies. We can’t wait to go back to Pondicherry and the Villa Shanti!

    One of the Best places in The heritage town of Pondicherry, we felt home with the staff and Madame Bitasta she is very welcoming and made our stay Lovely , Priya and all the staff were nice and helpful. Clean , well decorated and the location is 5 stars. We had a late check out and we left our luggage there and spent time in the common area with a nice cup of tea offered by Madame Bitasta and her daughter.

    The upkeep of the property is poor. There were cockroaches in the dining room. The fittings in the bathroom and bedrooms are old and rickety. The staff are friendly and pleasant. Room is clean. Not more than three stars but charging way more. No designated car parking.

    The property is a charming boutique hotel with old-world charm. The staff were friendly, and the room was large and comfortable. I had a good night's sleep, and a decent breakfast from a reasonable selection of food. There was a lovely pool, too. The location was great, too--in the middle of the French quarters, and close to, but not too close to the beach, which was pretty noisy during the Christmas Eve celebrations. A great experience, overall.
