Doel's 4 days trip to Pondicherry

2 years ago
The driver who came with the car was a great person, very friendly, polite and accomodating. The hotel rooms were good, we found cockroach, AC was not working. Regarding the travel agent, I faced something that has never happened in our earlier trips booked through Travel Triangle. I made the complete payment long back but the agent didn't make the payments. In the hotel, we were asked to make the pending payment as travel agent didn't do. The hotel said the agent is not receiving the phone. It was quite chaotic and I had to follow up multiple times to ensure the payment was cleared. Same happened when the driver agency called me saying they didnt receive complete payment. This issue was definitely disturbing. Visit to Mahabalipuram

Priyanka's 4 days trip to Pondicherry

2 years ago
I had booked a family trip to Pondicherry and Mahabalipuram from the Chennai airport for 4 nights. The agent was responsive in accommodating my requests before the booking was confirmed. The overall experience was fine. However, the hotel that we stayed at in Pondicherry (for 3 nights) wasn't very clean. It was an old hotel and the AC air smelled of mold. Breakfast was included in the tour package but packaged breakfast was provided in the room and not a dine-in experience-- something that I didn't expect. Additionally, their was seating and cupboard options but the space was limited and restrictive for 2 people in a room. I must stay the staff was polite though. I wish I had the time to carefully review the package and hotel choices before booking. We stayed one night at Sangam Inn and Banquet in Mahabalipuram. This hotel was very clean and had a nice ambience with dine-in options. All the staff was very polite and accommodating. We were suppose to leave before the official breakfast time to get to the airport in time and they prepared the breakfast 30-mins before our departure time. Lastly, the cab drive was overall fine but I would have appreciated that the driver wasn't driving in a rush. During our drive from Chennai airport to Pondicherry (Day 1), we had to let him know that he was driving a bit rough. Post that, the driving was better. In my past experience from another tour company, the driver had the itinerary and would take us to all the places by himself. In this trip, we had to communicate with the driver regularly about our daily plans. I am not sure if that is usually the case but this allowed us some flexibility .

Aahan's 6 days trip to Tamil Nadu

2 years ago
Room services were not great at hotels. On weekends for 29 rooms only 1 attendant was available at hotel Mamalla inn in Mahabalipuram. Hotel Priso in Pondicherri was 20km away not at all good location. hotels were not 3stars felt like 2 stars. Although tourist places were great and covered by cab driver Shiva. Baseline expectations do not get addressed. Hotels, planning could be improved. Swati from sky travels assured that the quality would be improved. Shell museum Mahabalipuram, Mangrove forest at Pichavaram and Nataraj temple at Chidambaram…

Sonalin's 4 days trip to Pondicherry

2 years ago
Hotel Le Royal Park has really a great ambience. Only thing is the services for both at restaurant and in room dining is slower. We drove with Prithviraj, he was polite, amiable & friendly. The only glitch I felt was with the AC of the cab not working as per satisfaction, which caused me rashes. Loved the places of Mahabalipuram, Pondicherry beaches. A healthy, happy family time.

Niladri's 7 days trip to Tamil Nadu

7 years ago
I got in touch with traveltriangle and gosthala when I was planning a 7 day trip of Tamil Nadu starting from Mahabalipuram to Madurai covering 4 coastal cities. When I started having detail discussion with them they made me realize that how far the distances would be and how we can break the journey and cover more cities. They comfortably planned the itenary and setup a 7 city tour in 8 days which was remarkable. The driver who was allocated to us was good, but I wish that he could speak either Hindi or English fluently as it became difficult for us to make him understand what we wanted. But then the behavior of the driver was really good and he knew the locations good. All our stays was well planned except for the stay at Gopinivas grand in kanyakumari. The hotel seems good from outside but was a mess inside. Gosthala team assured us that they won't suggest that hotel to any other traveller. Apart from that it was a remarkable and a memorable trip and I would like to thank gosthala team to keep up the great work.
