De L’orient

Pondicherry

Located where the French set up their new coastal lifestyle, De L’Orient is a stunning 18th century building, brought alive with hand written postcards and etchings.

Made up of high raftered ceilings and savonnerie rugs, complimented by four poster beds, you will savour a French mansion full of Indian warmth.

Guests enjoy fine Creole eating where Tamil spices mix with the subtle French undertones. Served at the Carte Blanche, you will dine amongst a collection of antique maps used by a wave of past sailors and traders.
