Hotels near Church of St. Simon and St. Jude, North Goa

I had stayed at Grand Hyatt Goa for 3 nights with family. Check in was very smooth. Mridusmitha was really a great help. Special thanks to Front office ***ager V***n and the team.It was such a great experience where we had spent an entire day inside the property enjoying all the facilities. The property is very close to nature with lot of greenery. Kids enjoyed the variety of recreation activities. My son did a sailing course and I strongly recommend this activity. It was great fun and the entire team of aqusail were very friendly and professional. The pools were well maintained and the staff were very attentive. Special thanks to Gaurav and Naresh from pool side. The spa and fitness center was amazing and very well maintained. Special thanks to spa director Dr. Ratheesh for ensuring a great experience at the property and assisting on planning our days there. The food was yummy. Special thanks to the great service at Lounge from Vikas. House keeping staff were very thorough and room was Luxurious and very well maintained. Special thanks to the house keeping ***ager Mr. Panda for checking on us throughout the stay. Overall it was an amazing and memorable experience. Thank you Grand Hyatt Goa team.

I will use it again next time. The surrounding area is very lively and beautiful. The people at the hotel are kind and grateful. Meals in the area are convenient.

We had a fortnight at the Aldeia Santa Rita [ASR] and found it to be staffed by a welcoming, friendly, and professional team. The hotel itself has lovely gardens throughout and plenty of palm trees, which allow for lots of birds, chipmunks, and other local fauna. Rooms: A very traditional Portuguese villa style/looking hotel, the rooms are much the same, although some are of a higher standard than others. These rooms seem to be the ones on the main walk through and face the pool. We really liked the traditional feel and found our rooms to have all we needed, with the exception of a comfy bed. The mattress was very hard, thin, and laid on a solid wooden frame. We did ask for a topper, which helped to an extent. So just be aware. Two fans and air con ensured we could keep cool when needed. Very nice bathroom with a decent shower, and it all looked pretty new. There is no safe/safety deposit box in the rooms. These are all in reception, and you must provide your own locks. We had a first-floor room and would choose this again as it gave more privacy. It was also good to have tea and coffee making facilities plus a full-size fridge. Food: All buffet style with the exception of ”a la carte” nights [every other night]. We definitely had some very nice food on the couple of evenings we did eat at the ASR including a selection of curries and some nice soup . Although we were booked All Inclusive, we had no intention of being so as there are some very good restaurants in Candolim. Otherwise, the food was very much aimed at domestic tourists, so some may find a very limited choice at both breakfast and dinner. Fresh eggs , omelette etc where readily available and cooked to order each breakfast. There was a very efficient toaster and fresh porridge, 1 type of fruit and usually 4/5 hot dishes which, as I've said, were mostly Asian inspired. Overall, the quality of the food was average, in our opinion. Pool: Very nice pool, well maintained, fair amount of sunbeds for the most part. However, there were not enough areas of shade/umbrellas, and it did get very hot. The world famous sun bed baggers were very much in evidence, and many beds were bagged but unused until later in the day. This is annoying whatever hotel or country you're in! One downside, the ants and other small insect critters. These were seen crawling all over the sunbeds throughout the day, and on the day I stayed by the pool (morning) , my bed was under attack all the while. The ants were even more active from about 1630hrs onwards. Not a pleasant situation and 3 of us were bitten, but it evidently did not bother the many who stayed at the pool every day. Location: Very much situated at the Fort end of Candolim, fair to say you're in Sinquerim. It is a fairly quiet location which is nice and it's a good walk to the busier parts of the resort. Taxis are available at the hotel if needed. Negative for us: the ” entertainment ” . This was mediocre at best with only a couple of ac

It was an amazing stay for 2 days. We’ve been here the past 3 times and each time it does not disappoint. The location, staff, and other amenities are great. They even upgraded our room upon request.

Had a fantastic stay here! We were at the resort for 4 nights and right from check in to check out everything was handled spectacularly! The staff here is attentive and friendly. The only flip side- don’t rely on laundry services offered. The lady refuses to take on laundry point blank. This can be stated in “amenities offered”. We made our own arrangements.

The highest standard service!!! The best breakfasts and dinners , as foreigners we could try the local cousine which is awesome!! The staff is super friendly and helpful. We really appreciated their hospitality so that we decided to extend our stay. It’s a 4 star ⭐️ hotel however thanks to its staff’s approach for me it should be ranked as 5 ☺️ Everything was clean and I felt taken care of. I definitely recommend staying at this property! You won’t regret it!

Очень удобное расположение, куча магазинов, кафешек, есть обменник и магазин с сим картами. До пляжа идти минут 20 На второй день обзаведётесь байком и поймёте что это лучшее место в городе. Классная лужайка перед отелем, можно устроить пикник или позаниматься йогой. Очень порадовало отношение со стороны персонала отеля, они приветливые, готовы помочь во всех вопросах, открытые для общения. Однозначно рекомендую этот отель для бронирования! Very convenient location, a bunch of shops, cafes, there is an exchange store and a SIM cards store. To the Beach you can walk 20 minutes On the second day you will get a bike and realize that this is the best place in the city. A cool lawn in front of the hotel, you can arrange a picnic or work out yoga. Very pleased with the attitude of the hotel staff, they are friendly, ready to help in all matters open to communication. I definitely recommend this hotel for booking!

The overall experience was excellent. Right from the room (we booked the executive suite), which was well furnished, beds were comfy and the pillows were also great. The bath was also great, super shower heads. Amenities are basic, not sure if would get them on demand. The food experience was amazing, we had dinner a few times at the Waterfront Cafe and the chef sent out some great Tiger Prawns, the Poisson was delicious. Breakfast was a large selection of good tasting food, the dosa and eggs counter did an excellent job as well. Service was great, Sahil was very responsive. Spa experience was also satisfying, we got a mix of Balinese, Swedish and some Foot Reflexology, the spa rooms were good, sauna was also effective. The highlight was the walk to the beach, crossing a nice little river filled with fish, the beach is vast and even, great for a walk/jog. Sunrise and sunsets were a treat and the weather during the evening was also cool. A nice selection of Indies were around, they would accompany us to the water, play with us but never crossed over the bridge to the resort. Overall resort design is first class, with abundant use of local wood and stone. Lots of pools, the main one has some great music playing all the time. Check in and check out was smooth and easy, staff very helpful, Mandrem beach and Riva are a magical combination.
