Excellent hotel with the perfect facilities and comfort for families. It's close to most of the places of interest in Pondicherry. Most of the places are at a driving distance of 15-20 mins. Hotel staff is brilliant and very cooperative. Nice rooms and service. A very good activity center for the kids and the families. Highly recommended.

family vacation at pondicheery

This hotel is situated on 100 geet road near Rao office. This is very good hotel with spacious & clean rooms. Front desk staff & room service staff is very good in behaviour. Check in & check out was very quickly done. My kids enjoyed a lot in hotel.one thing which was not good that there was no body in business center to help.
Overall a good value for money hotel.

Nice place to stay with family

We were two families staying here and spent a night here. All in all a good place to stay with family. The hotel staff is courteous and helpful. They have a small play area for kids. The breakfast spread was nice. They have a spa but couldn't use it as the therapist was not available for the two days we spent. The swimming pool is good too. The location is a drawback as it is located at 100 feet road and unless you have your own vehicle you will have to depend on public transport.

Nice hotel with great ambience and good food,

It is nice and well located on 100 ft road with all amenities close by. The breakfast buffet was great and we enjoyed it. The room was clean and with good confort.
The only thing bad was we saw some tempting cake slices in the display and ordered a slice. When my wife put a little bit in her mouth it was very bad and awful. Think it must have been there for many days. We sent it back. Also we noticed that they removed all the pastries from the display section.
When we checked out we were charged for the bad stuff, and we told them that we did not eat it because it was bad. However the hotel catering staff said that they prepare fresh all the time. But we noticed that the display cabinet was empty without any pastries.
A word of advise, don't try out anything in the display.

Very Nice Hotel

The GRT Sunway in Pondicherry is a very nice hotel. The front desk staff as well as the room service and restaurant staff were very friendly and cordial, always willing to help. The room was quiet & clean with amenities for making coffee/tea and free wi-fi. The hotel is not very close to the promenade (beach) or the Aurobindo ashram, but if you have a vehicle, this is not really a major problem.

Great service but poor food

I have been staying at the hotel with my wife for 4 days and 3 nights. THE GOOD - The room was real nice with good ambience and comfort. House keeping and room service were real good. Not close to the beach but a good location close to the hot spots. THE BAD - Food, specifically dinner buffet was bad. I have had food at a lot of star hotels in India and this was the worst. The GRT Grand at Chennai had some good food, which set the benchmark for us; but here it was very bad. So bad that both of us did not eat at all. The breakfast was complimentary and was ok. There was a nice spread of menu out of which some were pretty ok. THE UGLY - The dinner on weekends is a DJ dinner and unluckily I had to try that out. To begin with, the sound system was so bad which made the sound distorted at almost all times. This killed the amibence and made the already bad dinner experience much worse. BOTTOM LINE - Skip the dinner buffet and then the hotel is real nice. A must go.

Great spa and gym!

Had a great stay here, a nice place for a luxurious holiday without living in the midst of traffic in Pondy. Getting to Pondy is easy with an autorickshaw (15 mins). The gym was some of the best we experienced in India, and the spa was amazing. Especially the people working there were very helpful and friendly.

Great Stay

We had a great stay at the Sunway.
We had 2 rooms. both comfortable but not amazing. The view was ordinary as we were on the pool level and the view was of the pool only. The cleanliness of the room could definitely be improved but overall it was fine.
The staff at checkin was efficient and very informative of the city's attraction. They offered a delicious juice and were professional and efficient.
The breakfast buffet was fantastic and had great selection.

Moldy hotel

The service was great, very nice friendly staff, but the hotel has mold all over the hallways and in the room. The cabinet under the bathroom sink was nearly destroyed by water damage. The towels were rough and stained. They looked dirty. The location was awful, a very busy street very far from everything. Not a nice place to take a stroll at night for example. About 15 minutes from the French Quarter where the entertainment is in Pondicherry. The good thing is that they give you free wi fi, a rarity in India, and the linens were very comfy. But if you are allergic to mold, run!

GRT Review

This hotel is in the heart of Pondicherry, if you are looking for a quite / sea side or near to sea, this may not suite you. Best suited for family,
Every thing was good except for room service, we have to ask for ice cubes three times before the person on the end of the line said that the ice machine has broke and that there is no ice cube. WE would have been happy to hear this on the first call instead of calling them number of times. Morning break fast was good and people in the restaurant were very helpful. Check in check out time was quick and front desk guys were very courteous. Over all experience was good except for Room Service desk person who could not keep make us smile.

Not happy!

A cheap stay. A hotel that attracts a terrible crowd. Staff is very courteous but ill-trained in hotel management. Mixing family (with kids) with crowd that wants to eat, smoke and drink all day was insensitive to terrible, to say the least. Noise emanating from a rowdy bunch all through the night left us sleepless and tired when we woke up. Pool is good but with the crowd that comes, it's best to stay away. First room had the ceiling leaking. Ceiling had a lot of mold. Was shifted to another room immediately (again, example of courteous staff) but second room had 3 neighboring rooms filled with this smoking bunch. Hotel staff would do nothing to either contain their noise (they all had their doors open - yes, it's that kind of uncivilized crowd) or contain the cigarette smoke that filled the entire floor all through the day and night. Food was average. Beds were uncomfortable. Service was average. We had to ask for extra towels (we were 3 of us) and bath mats EVERY single day. The towels are more like sand paper - must be a decade old and of poor quality. Overall, a cheap stay - if that's what you are looking for, this foots the bill. If you are looking for a silent getaway - stay away. Location is bad. So, not ideal for folks travelling to explore the Puducherry french quarter or the beach!

Lovely hotel with great staff and wonderful pool. Well worth the price. Check-out was a little slow as the phone seemed to take priority. I was given a free 15 mins foot massage which was fantastic-unfortunately I then booked a one hour body massage which was not so good and definitely not worth the huge price.

Great Hotel, check-in staff need some training

Well, they quoted me more than twice what I paid at hotels.com. When I showed Hotels.com reservation the check-in staff did not know anything about Hotels.com and he was more interested in finding out how much I paid at hotels.com (bit unprofessional). And it took a while to get him to understand the existence of internet booking. The hotel is well kept and it cant get any better than this. Very expensive buffet. Bed need significant improvement, bath room walls had some soap scum which kind of freaked me out but other than that I had a fantastic stay. Check-out was pleasant. If go to Pondi again, I will definitely stay here.

A very good hotel overall, specially families!

We stayed here for a night and an extended 2nd day booking two rooms. It was a family visit (with our son and parents) and throughout we enjoyed our stay very much.

They have two swimming pools (part of the same pool area) with one for toddlers so our son had a great time. Water was clean and we enjoyed jacuzzi, steam and a complimentary foot message at the spa.

The breakfast was complimentary and good, the staff courteous and well trained making our stay very good overall.

They do not have travel services but the front office desk can provide you with travel info and there is an auto stand diagonally opposite the hotel in you want to enjoy pondicerry by an auto.

Located centrally, its near to the station, Promenade and even Chunnambar (Paradise) beach.

We got a good deal on Expedia offering good savings so it was value for money,

Recommended for families - do look up the various hotel sites for a good deal as several hotels are competing by offering attractive prices to direct the flow of the customers!

Worst Service ever experienced

Great hotel name, great location as appeared in the internet, great banner - this is what made us to choose GRT sunway. Only after experience the hotel service, i could easily conclude the deficient ervice, people who cannot speak English properly, their unthinkable couresy, stinking rooms facility, broken taps, insufficient toiletories - all were extremely costly for the money that i have paid. i have stayed in GRT chennai and that experience was awesome. Pondy experience is just not thinkable for me and i would not recommend this to anybody. we get bad treatment in our home land. do not ever think of GRT sunway pondy in future.

Overall experience was okay. The ambiance is good. But the room is not maintained well. There was a stink in the room. AIr conditioner was causing slight dampness on the floor. Sink in the bathroom was not working. The breakfast is elaborate and good. However, the dinner is very expensive (Rs. 600) and not worth the cost. I would prefer to explore other hotels rather than staying at sunway GRT.

Overall a good hotel

I visit Pondicherry every 6 months or so for business. The Sunway is a great hotel to stay at, mainly because of the pool for a relaxing swim after a heavy day's work, but also for the friendliness of the staff. The wireless internet signal is pretty weak and keeps dropping out, but that was the only down-side.
The rate offered by Hotels.com was better than that offered by the hotel directly!

Sunway GRT Grand Pondicherry

This quite large hotel lies on the outskirts of the city beside a main road, and at a distance from the heritage city centre. Street noise can scarcely be heard in the rooms, however. It maintains a 3-star standard, and not more. The gym is in the basement and poorly equipped. The rooms are simply furnished but acceptable for a one night's stay. On the positive side, the staff are friendly and helpful.

The Sunway GRT Grand is conveniently located

We had a wonderful stay at the Sunway GRT Grand ,The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was extremely clean and modern. Great location, I don't really have anything negative to report, other than the room service took pretty long during dinner time for 2 nights during our 3 day hotel stay . This hotel is a great value for your money. Got good pool and kids play area which my daughter and her friends enjoyed! This hotel did not have any spa would have been good if it was available.
