Top Goa Velha Hotel Reviews

Grand Hyatt Goa

10/10 Excellent

"I would like to take this opportunity to express our sincere appreciation for Suchita, our personal butler at the Grand Hyatt Goa. Having stayed at a number of luxury hotels over the years, I can confidently say that it is individuals like Suchita who truly make a five-star experience memorable. From her warm and welcoming personality to her exceptional professionalism, attentiveness and genuine care, Suchita has been absolutely outstanding. Nothing has ever felt like too much trouble, and her willingness to go above and beyond to ensure our comfort and happiness has been remarkable. What makes Suchita particularly special is that her hospitality feels genuine and personal rather than simply part of her job. She has a wonderful ability to make guests feel valued, looked after and completely at ease. I sincerely hope the senior management team at Grand Hyatt Goa recognises and rewards Suchita for her exceptional dedication and commitment to guest satisfaction. Employees like her are a tremendous asset to the hotel and are one of the main reasons guests choose to return. Suchita, thank you for your kindness, dedication and for making our stay so special. You are an absolute credit to the Grand Hyatt brand, and we wish you every success in your career. A truly exceptional individual who deserves the highest recognition!"

Goa Marriott Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We love staying at the Goa Marriott at Miramar. Very conveniently located, great amenities, good sumptuous breakfast with wide selection. Great hospitality, they go out of their way to make you feel at home. The airport shuttle package we booked was an added benefit."

Taj Holiday Village Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay here, staff were lovely and pools were clean and well maintained. Very tropical feel throughout the resort, very relaxed!"

Ronil Goa - a JdV by Hyatt hotel

8/10 Good

"I spent a week here in September 2026. This hotel is handy enough to all the local night life but is quiet enough to be relaxing. There are a lot of good local restaurants within the vicinity. It’s great to just try new foods. A first for me was a Xacuti. Very spicy. Very good."

Taj Fort Aguada Resort & Spa, Goa

8/10 Good

"The resort has beautiful views and is in a great location. Access between the two Taj resorts nearby is a plus to have access to additional amenities"
