Palais De Mahe – A CGH Earth Hotel
Contemporary flair meets heritage style
Palais de Mahe is located in the heart of Pondicherry’s French Quarter and just a short stroll to the sea front.
Palais de Mahe is a charming mansion with French and Tamil influences throughout. It’s perfect for exploring the shops, art galleries and antique stores of Pondicherry’s narrow streets. High ceilings give an airy feel, and the yellow-ochre walls reflect its French colonial past. Wide verandas and colonnaded balconies lead to the courtyard where there is wonderful swimming pool. Herbal massages are available in the Ayurveda Centre.
Why we love Palais De Mahe – A CGH Earth Hotel
-
Architects from the Indian National Trust for Art and Cultural Heritage have created an authentic-looking Franco-Tamil mansion
-
The hotel is in the heart of the French Quarter, close to the shops, art galleries and the ashram and a few footsteps away from the promenade and the beach
-
The chef goes to the harbour every morning to buy seafood to create the day’s dishes
-
The rooftop restaurant overlooks the French Quarter
Facilities
Step back in time with a visit to Les Alizes’ the colonial-styled rooftop restaurant with menus crafted around the catch of the day. The Earth Café serves locally ground coffee whilst the cocktail bar creates popular favourites.
Herbal massages are offered at the Ayurvedic centre.
Take a cruise on the Bay of Bengal, join a heritage walk in the French Quarter or visit the Auroville ashram.
As a member of CGH Earth, the hotel is committed to supporting local communities and, where possible, most of the products used such as fabrics, soaps and shampoos are sourced within a 50-mile radius of the hotel.
