“Relaxed and peaceful ambience nestled in white town.”

My sister and I shared the T1 room on the second floor. We stayed 6 nights total. It was spacious and beautiful, combining French romanticism and simplicity with the poetic artistry and craftsmanship India is unrivaled in. I highly recommend and would come back again.

“Excellent Colonial Era Lodging Experience in the Heart of the French District”

Villa Helena is located in the heart of the French district in Pondicherry just a few blocks from the popular seaside promenade. The city's best restaurants are all within an easy walk or short auto rickshaw ride from the hotel. The rooms are furnished with period antiques and lighting, giving guests a nostalgic colonial era lodging experience. A breakfast is provided every morning and the hotel staff will wash clothes for a reasonable fee. I really enjoyed my stay at Villa Helena and highly recommend the hotel for a short or extended stay.

The villa is beautiful and well-maintained. The doors, windows, high ceilings, etc. are all charming and as seen in the photos. The bed was quite comfortable but it was two twin beds pushed together which may not be ideal for a couple/family. I loved that the bathroom had a fan, since it was quite humid in there, and would be more humid when it's pouring rain. The breakfast was really great (lots of food, from breads to granola, fresh fruit, juice + another beverage), but extremely slow so that occupied a good hour of time as the food is brought to you one at a time. The housekeeping staff were lovely and considerate.

Very nice ambience reflecting the French-style villa. Rooms are tastefully furnished. Very good food in the restaurant, including the seafood and the steaks.

The Villa was like an old charm. It is well maintained and you feel you are in an old French movie. The stay was comfortable and the daily breakfast was good too.

a great place to stay in the heart of Puducherry - everything within walking distance of this very charming property, dating back to the French colonial era. The breakfast served in the courtyard is also impeccable.

An all-round excellent stay, I even extended while I was there. An outstanding welcome from the whole team and very helpful throughout my stay… really couldn’t do enough to help! The hotel courtyard is very peaceful and felt like a haven after a day exploring Pondi. Excellent quality bed linen etc in rooms - very comfortable.
