Hotel Nova, Goa

Advantages: Excellent Resort
Disadvantages: A little bit isolated

...Over the years we have stayed at numerous hotels throughout Goa and this was our second visit to the Nanu Resort within the past two years. I must say that this is one if not the very best 3 star hotels in Goa. All of the staff are extremely friendly, polite and very attentive and have been trained to very high standards, better than some of the 4 star hotels we have stayed at in the past. Nothing is too much trouble for them and if they are unable to assist you personally, they will immediately find someone who can help you. The cleanliness throughout the hotel and general appearance of the resort itself is also to a very high standard for Goan hotels. All rooms are air-conditioned and also have a fan and multi-channel TV. Towels and bed lined are changed daily and are beautifully soft and clean, not grey and hard as some other... Read review

Images of what might be floating down river deepened my spirits. These misgivings were echoed by two girls who had visited the hotel for the day to report back to parents that would be going there shortly. However, the next day, after a nights sleep in a really pleasant room with a sea view it looked a whole lot better. The brown sea is caused by the darkness of the sand being churned up...

...in India, however several other cities do follow the religion. My Hotel: Now there are so many hotels in Goa, largely due to the fact that it has become such a global tourist attraction in recent years. Hotels range from small hostels, to 1 - 5 star resorts, along the beach or nearby the beach. We at the Holiday Inn Goa resort, which was one of the best hotels ive probably stayed in, better than Dubai I guess. This section will discuss the facilities of the hotel, the staff, the price, food and drinks, and general ease of getting around. Price: Price ranges can vary upon how many rooms you want, how many beds in each room and the duration of your stay. We stayed for four days, with 8 of us, sharing between four rooms. Each room included two single beds and cost us around £65 per night, we stayed in a standard room, however they also... Read review
