It's a nice boutique hotel located at a convenient distance from the Promenade/Rock Beach. We were a party of four with two kids and had booked a Superior Room. The room was nice stacked with basic amenities and cool decor. The mattress was soft and the size of the bed was good enough for all of us to fit in. The breakfast spread was decent with about4-5 items on counter and another 4-5 options they offer from live counter. I found the tariff on a higher side given that the hotel was almost empty on a weekday. I had booked on their website. If you wish to stay in the french quarters, this is a good option. Perhaps call them and check if they can offer a good deal.

Nice, elegant, cozy hotel in the old French Colony. Walking distance to the foreshore and other Pondicherry attractions. The room was spacious and comfortable. Breakfast options plenty and attentive service. Definitely would revisit and recommend for your stay.

Location is very good in white-town and close by to everything to see. Also to the promenade. But hotel is very small. Room was good and good washroom. Breakfast very passable.

The room was of decent size but it had a strange smell. The staff attributed it to the wood panels. But not quite sure if that's accurate. They however, were helpful in providing room freshner.

Took the ground floor family room, the room was smelling with lack of ventillation. The breakfast spread and the food was worst. Staff were courteous ans helpful kudos to them. Too expensive for the amount we paid.

The Richmond is a nice destination at White town close to the beach. The rooms were very clean, staff cordial amd food was tasty with plenty of options. I wish that rooms should have been larger when they r charging five thousand rupees per day and the door lock needs to be replaced. Overall pleasant experience. Would recommend to all.
