“good place”
nice place...but food could be better...better choices for breakfast. very good service
“. Everything was great except the Casino”
Becareful at the Casino, it is careless about paying winners and cashing out correctly. Otherwise we had a great time.
“High-quality full-service resort but slow service at the restaurants”
Cidade de Goa is located on one of the few "private" beaches in the capital city of Panaji. There was a complimentary airport shuttle (takes about 30-40 minutes). The hote is really a full-service resort - which has its advantages and disadvantages. You can spend all your time at Cidade and never leave to see Goa itself. The pool and beach are definite highlights. It's private, quiet, and relaxing to lay out without concern for being disturbed by peddlers All the restaurants you likely will need (nice breakfast buffet, local cuisine, continental) are on-site, and they have a very nice spa facility as well. The main problem we encountered was the extremely slow service at the restaurants. It was as if there was no interest on the part of the servers to take our order, deliver us food within a reasonable time frame (often took 30+ minutes for a sandwich), or bring the bill. This could be interepreted as a "relaxed" approach - but became frustrating when it just appeared as laziness or unprofessional. Apart from that we had a great visit. The treatments at the Ayurvedic Spa are top-notch at a reasonable price. The food itself was pretty good quality (clean, tasty) - but you definitely pay higher prices for the convenience and quality. If you want to save money then stay at a "public" hotel and visit the local restaurants. If you want a full-service resort-like atmosphere (they have "theme nights" and sports on the beach) - then Cidade is very nice.
“A bargain if Goa's your destination”
Reserved a garden room. Had the hotel move us immediately bcause the room was over the staff parking lot. New room was overlooking tennis courts. Figured that would be okay because people would stop playing at 9 PM. Unfortunately, there was a construction site on the other side of courts. At 9:30 I called about the hammering and was told the construction would go on all night. When I threatened checking out, the management moved us immediately to a quiet suite of rooms on the other side of the hotel; looking out over the ocean. At no extra charge to us, it was a deal. The food was fine and the pool lovely, but the beach leaves alot to be desired. No white sand here. It's really a package hotel with lots of corporate groups. I must say though management was very accomodating.
“Beautiful Private Beach Experience”
The hotel staff is very professional and friendly. The hotel is new and has a nice beach. If you like to be away from everything, this is a great hotel for rate they charge. We stayed there for 7 nights. Food is nice and room service is good and prompt. The DVD service is a nice concept. Breakfast provided as part of the reservation was very good and the staff at the breakfast very nice. The ayurvedic massage was nice too. The Internet connection was not great. Make sure you bring your own power adaptor. The food prices are little expensive. Make sure that you sign all your bills and tally at the end. Overall, we had a wonderful time. Relaxing, sunny, good service, good food, evening beach soccer. I recommend this hotel to everyone.
