Airport Hotels, Dabolim (GOI)

"The room and bathroom need to be renovated and the room looks dirty. This is definitely NOT a 4 star hotel. It is closer to a 1 star or at most a 2 star hotel compared to other hotels in India that I have stayed at. I would not recommend the hotel unless it is completely renovated."

"The good stuff: - Hotel is in a fantastic location, very close to GOI airport, perfect place to stay if you have a flight the next day. - It is also fantastically located right next to a picture perfect beach. - The Duty Manager Rita is amazing - introduced herself to us immediately upon check in, made herself available if we needed any advice or support, offered advice and suggestions for us based on our movements. Stepped in and helped us resolve an issue with the restaurant. The not so good stuff: - Hotel and rooms are dated. Could do with a refurbishment to bring them up to a modern standard. - Pool is fantastic and refreshing, but could be better maintained (cleaned). - The activity operators operating on the beach next to it are dodgy scammers - steer clear of the beach activities. - Had a run in with the restaurant, the food took in excess of 2 hours to reach us. Resturant staff and manager were unsympathetic, did not communicate, and came up with a compensation they subsequently revoked. Luckily, the Duty Manager Rita listened to us in the morning and came up with a satisfactory resolution. "

"We had a great honeymoon experience here they really go above and beyond to make us feel welcome and looked after. "

"It was a ok resort, pretty but kind of boring. "

"Staff was neither reasonably friendly nor responsive."

"The staff's hospitality was outstanding, the Hotel building is newly built and the location is far from crowded places if you are looking for peace of mind, I highly recommend this hotel."

"Overall, my impression of the hotel is very positive. From the moment I arrived, the staff were friendly and accommodating, making me feel welcome and comfortable. The location is great - right in the heart of Goa Panaji with easy access to all the city has to offer. One of the highlights of my stay was the breakfast, which had a wide variety of options from English to Indian breakfast, which suited my tastes perfectly. It was well-prepared, fresh and delicious, and the service was attentive and friendly. Another aspect of the hotel that impressed me was the quick turnaround time for any request. Whenever I needed anything, the staff were always prompt and efficient in their response. They were always happy to help and made me feel well-cared for throughout my stay. The rooms themselves were on the smaller side, but they had all the necessary amenities to ensure a comfortable stay. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom was clean and well-stocked, and the overall ambiance of the room was relaxing and inviting. I had the chance to use the sauna and spa facilities during my stay, and I have to say it was the cherry on the cake. The spa was luxurious and relaxing, with a range of treatments on offer to help me unwind after a long day of exploring the city. In summary, I would highly recommend Vivanta by Taj in Goa Panaji for anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay in Goa. "

"We had a very enjoyable stay and especially liked the restaurant food in the evening. Spa also very good and a special thanks to Roshan for the excellent massage. "

"Excellent location. The beach area and rocks could be made a lot cleaner. Lot of beer bottles and plastic bottles around the rocks. "
