Budget Hotel in Puducherry

I am looking for a budget hotel in Puducherry, something around the lines of Rs500 - Rs700 per night. I am preferably looking for an accommodation near the French part of Puducherry. Please avoid suggesting ashrams. Thanks.

 

Hotel Continental 48 on Labourdonnais Street is a good option, I am not 100% certain about tariff but it is classed a budget hotel. It is a popular stay for many so if you do choose this hotel make sure you prebook.

 

Thank you KK. Would you know if the hotel has a restaurant as well? I know I am pushing my luck especially with the budget but trying to get the best facilities for my budget, if the hotel does not have a restaurant I am hoping that there are eating places near by.
