I had a great stay at Mango Hill by Poppys, enjoying its old-world charm and lovely ambiance. The rooms were spacious and clean, especially the Swiss Chalet which had a stunning sea view. However, the dining options were quite basic and did not meet my expectations, and the service at times felt lacking, especially during busy hours. Overall, it was a relaxing getaway, ideal for those looking to unwind.

I had an average stay at this hotel outside Pondicherry. The staff was polite and helpful, and the room sizes were impressive with a spacious balcony.
