"Staff were great and very friendly. The taxi’s that arrived at the hotel charged fairly. I can’t say that for all taxi’s in Goa. There is currently no uber. So get haggling and never accept the first price (for taxis around Goa). The food was ok there. Pool was great for my 3 year old. The only complaint I had was that the staff were not able to get the digital key/lock to our room to work. Which was disappointing as I really wanted to use my phone to gain access to our room. Being a partner of Hilton. You would expect them to be able to get this to work. As disappointing as this was. It was a nice stay overall and we really appreciated the hotel."

"Had a wonderful stay at Hyatt Place Candolim, Goa and truly enjoyed every bit of it. The property offers a calm and peaceful environment, perfect for a relaxing getaway while still being conveniently close to the beach. The location strikes a great balance between accessibility and tranquility. The rooms were clean, spacious, and very well maintained, reflecting the overall high standards of the property. Housekeeping was prompt and consistent throughout the stay. A special mention to the staff—their courtesy, professionalism, and willingness to help really stood out and made the experience even more pleasant. The breakfast spread was excellent, with a good variety and quality. The in-house restaurant also serves very tasty food, making dining at the hotel a great option. I also appreciated the complimentary access to the gym and the dedicated kids’ activity area, which makes it a great choice for both families and couples. Overall, a well-maintained property with great service, good food, and a relaxing vibe. Would definitely recommend and look forward to visiting again!"

"I recently had the pleasure of staying at DoubleTree by Hilton Goa, and it turned out to be a truly memorable experience. From the moment I arrived, the warm welcome—complete with their signature chocolate chip cookie—set the tone for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. The property itself is beautifully maintained, surrounded by lush greenery and offering a peaceful escape from the usual hustle of Goa. The rooms were spacious, clean, and thoughtfully designed, with comfortable bedding and all the modern amenities you’d expect. I especially appreciated the balcony views, which added a refreshing touch to my mornings. The staff deserves special mention—they were consistently courteous, attentive, and eager to help with any request. Their hospitality made a noticeable difference and added a personal touch to the overall experience. The food was another highlight. The breakfast spread was extensive, catering to a variety of tastes, and everything I tried was fresh and flavorful. The on-site dining options offered a great mix of local Goan dishes and international cuisine. The pool area was well-maintained and perfect for unwinding, whether during the day or in the evening. The hotel’s location is also convenient, offering easy access to nearby attractions while still maintaining a calm and secluded vibe. Overall, my stay at DoubleTree by Hilton Goa exceeded expectations. It’s an ideal choice for anyone looking for comfort, great service, and a serene environment in Goa. I would "

"Honestly, one of the best properties I’ve stayed at. The staff were absolutely amazing and there was nothing you could do that was a bother. On arrival we were greeted by Nikhil who swiftly had drinks sent our way and our rooms checked in, all while we were able to relax on the sofas. Genuinely the best check in experience I’ve ever had. He was our main point of contact after this, making sure we always knew where to go, what to do and made sure we were looked after at all times. It really felt like a VIP experience. Outside of this, the hotel was great, an amazing spa and fantastic restaurants. Huge thanks to the team as they really went above and beyond. Can’t recommend enough."

"Our 2-night stay at Taj Cidade de Goa Horizon was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the experience felt warm, seamless, and truly luxurious. A special mention to Isha for her incredible help and patience during check-in. She made us feel welcomed and at ease right away, setting the tone for the rest of our stay. The hospitality extended throughout the property was outstanding. Bagwant from the security team stood out for his courteous and attentive approach, always greeting us with a smile and ensuring everything felt safe and comfortable. We also deeply appreciate Haydin, the duty manager, who handled an issue we encountered with remarkable efficiency and professionalism, it was resolved so quickly that it barely disrupted our experience. The property itself is stunning, with breathtaking views, beautifully maintained spaces, and a calm, relaxing atmosphere that makes it hard to leave. Every detail, from the rooms to the service, reflects the high standards you expect from Taj. Overall, it was a memorable stay, made even more special by the wonderful team. We’ll definitely be coming back. "
