Nice hotel if that’s where you need to be
This is a good hotel; modern and comfortable, but really in a terrible position. It seems to be used for the first night/meeting point for tours but Shahdara is really not convenient for anything. It’s over an hour’s drive to the airport. If Shahdara is your destination, then it’s perfect!

It's a good hotel with basic facilities available in every room. Parking is restricted to 2 cars in the premises. Overall it's a convenient stay close to the beach.

Good stay for a short trip and at a good price
Pleasant stay for a short trip. Rooms were good for the price. Staff is helpful and friendly. Din't have a chance to eat at the restaurant, but the bar looked good. Located right next to Novotel hotel, on the main road. Rented bikes/cars right next to the hotel.

Lovely staff, but hotel badly in need of TLC
We would stay here again ( possibly) because the staff were so helpful. The "restaurant" served excellent food.However the hotel was shabby and run down. It was in a good position for the beaches, only a five minute walk, but was on the only through road which at times was really busy and noisy. However I did feel like I'd been to India which can't be said of some other places in Goa.

Value for Money Hotel right on the Candolim Road
Well this was one of the last minute booking we did in the peak season checking in on 24th Dec'13 and though we would have stayed more but room was only available for 1 day but I'll say got it a reasonable rate as per season People who are not so specific to have a beach view first thing in the morning can look for properties far from beach .You will get it at in comparison reasonable rate.As for local and beach travel if you have a vehicle great else scooty,car or Jeeps are available for self drive on daily rent basis all across Goa My review: 1 Value for Money if in the range to 2K to 3.5 K per night for all singles,couples and families 2 Courteous and helpful Staff 3 Right on Candolim Street, 3 to 5 KM far from Calangute and Bagha Beach 4 They do not have their own parking space for 4 wheelers which could cause some incovenience 5 Cozy Lounge Cafe and tasty food

Pleasant experience
The hotel is perfectly located and the service staff is friendly. The rooms are comfortable, nice and clean but not too spacious in case someone is looking for one. They also had karaoke and it was really nice. Overall our stay at the Banyan tree was pleasant.

Good location, quaint hotel, lacks room comfort
It seems like a quaint Portuguese bungalow turned into a hotel. Convenient location... overall cleanliness of the hotel, room and bathroom is quite acceptable, but the room comfort is lot to be desired eg. the beds do not have cotton mattresses, the bedsheet is directly spread on the spring mattress and hence makes sleeping very uncomfortable. Some rooms smell very funny as well. Breakfast is included in room rate, but if you are in Goa, I would not advise you to eat there.. many better options in the surrounding areas. Service was OK, the service staff were generally responsive, however, the owner or managers were nowhere to be seen if required.

Great Service at a noisy location
The Hotel room was good, they were super clean and tidy. The hotel service was at its best. However, the food was not that great. In fact, i would sugest you avoid it at all costs. Also, the location was super noisy with construction right in front of the hotel. This hotel being the only one which does not offer cancellation is not a very good option! i will not go there again.

Very good location
Overall very good value for money. Close To everything though relatively quiet. Very nice breakfast. Stuff's English is no good, but still they do the job. Surrounding neighborhood is not very pleasant, but it's hard to find pleasant one in Goa. Will definitely recommend for off season stay because of their price, though high season prices just okay.

Ok place to stay for a day
We stayed just for one day. Hotel is really small. Heater wasn't working in one room. AC was fine. Swimming pool is ok. If you really want to stay then choose various hotels near by. This was ok and quite expensive.

Excellent owner & staff, hotel needs improvements
The owner is one the most professional one I talked to in my travels around the world, or one of the smartest. The hotel did not meet any of my requirements and half of the web site claims. However, the owner, gave us a free night stay so we can find another hotel and complete refund- Wow. After some communication with him, he told me he had an accident so the hotel condition was suffering. He is back on his feet and I hope so will his hotel. Now the hotel: Linens were dirty, no claimed safe deposite box, no internet (broken?), special switch for Hot water without indication - so I had cold shower. It is a low cost hotel with no place to hide during the super hot period of the day. If you need it as a base for tours, a place like this could be OK after they fix it, if you want some R&R pay double and enjoy your stay.

Banyan Tree Courtyard,Candolim,Goa
I was so pleased with the first month of my stay in Goa at the Banyan Tree Courtyard, I decided to stay for the second month--fortunately there was room-- I have been very impressed with the friendly and efficient attention from all the staff and have been very well looked after. I feel more like an honoured guest in a private home, very relaxed and comfortable.

Great location and helpful staff
The location is perfect and walking distance from the beach. It is definitely a no frills hotel room (just a bed and a table) but it has probably the cleanest bathroom we've seen in India. Also, the hotel staff was really helpful and even walked with us to show us how to get to the beach. We only stayed one night, but enjoyed it very much.

Best Budget hotel to stay
I decided to book 2 rooms in this hotel after doing lot of research on the hotels.com website, initially i thought this would be very simple hotel (a place to stay), however the experience was altoghether different when we reached here , it is a very cool place, i had been here with wife and my brother and his wife and we all enjoyed alot, people were nice(Manager, staff) , helpful, soft to talk and discuss (about places to visit in Goa), the breakfast , the quality of service was awesome, with small budget this hotel is a perfect place to stay, there were many options available when looking for hotel to stay in Goa ,also found cheaper hotel available but this was hotel I chose to stay after reading review and honestly i am happy that i made no mistake in selecting a room in this hotel.

Very Good Value and Service
Basic but comfortable hotel with air conditioning and swimming pool. Staff were really friendly and helpful. The air conditioning in our room wasn't working very well so we got moved to one of the ground floor rooms which are nicer. They were really understanding when my return flight got cancelled and I needed to cancel one night's stay; they gave me a refund. Situated in between Candolim and Candolim so a bit of a walk (10/15 mintues) to the main area of restaurants and beach etc, but also means it's nice and quiet. Would definitely recommend if you are on a small budget.

The Banyan tree is a beautiful restored house, set on the doorstep of Candolim, not a quite location being in the heart of this, the room's are clean, and stylish. Breakfast was served in the garden, but there was no shade, great if you love the sun first thing. The staff were helpful, especially the manager, the pool was small but ok when noone else was around. We had a pleasant stay but only for a week.

Don't be deceived by the photos on this hotels website - not impressed at all
A far better standard of accomodation can be found in this area at less than half the price - don't be fooled by the photos which depict this establishment as a grand, elegant hotel - behind the scenes it is not! The swimming pool was sparkling clean and crystal clear.

Sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Das Hotel liegt direkt an der Hauptstraße, dadurch ist es z.T. recht laut! Unverständlich: Bauarbeiten am Hotel in der Hauptsaison ( Weihnachten / Sylvester ); kein Restaurantbetrieb! Sehr schöner Innenhof mit kleinem Pool, netter Garten.

Das Banyan Tree liegt an der stark befahrenen Hauptstrasse, so ist es leider auch nachts nie leise. Zudem ist gegenüber eine Großbaustelle, die dank Flutlichtanlage früh morgens bis spätabends in Betrieb ist.

Dette hotel er bedømt ud fra hvad der ellers ligger i området. Det er ikke Hilton, men lille,hyggeligt og billigt,gåafstand til stranden er lidt lang,men så kan man jo bare leje en scoter.
