Featuring a restaurant, the 5-star Le Dupleix Hotel Pondicherry lies just 5 minutes' walk from the scenic Rock Rock Beach. There is also a car park.

Location

The Promenade Beach is just near the hotel, while Old Light House Lighthouse is approximately 300 metres away. This Pondicherry hotel is within 10 minutes' walk of Share Auto bus stop and within 10 minutes' walk of French War Memorial.

You can easily find the Vibrant Arulmigu Manakula Vinayagar Hindu Temple within a few blocks of the Le Dupleix.

The property provides access to Pondicherry train station, which is a mere 0.8 km away.

Rooms

This hotel has 10 rooms, comprising a seating area. High-speed internet and a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, along with a minibar fridge and coffee/tea making facilities, are offered. Bathrooms, equipped with a bidet and a separate toilet, also feature a hair dryer and bath sheets.

Eat & Drink

Serving both food and drinks, The Pasta Bar Veneto is situated fairly close to the Le Dupleix Pondicherry.

“What strikes me most about Le Dupleix is its commitment to preserving the allure of French colonial architecture; originally the mayor's residence, it's now a 5-star heritage hotel. The courtyard restaurant, sheltered by a 200-year-old mango tree, offers a particularly charming dining setting and the customizable dining events are appealing. This hotel is a unique blend of history and contemporary comfort.”
