Wah Taj !

Lovely property - excellent team - I can’t stop saying - Wah Taj !

Beautiful hotel, just poorly maintained

Room smelled like mold and room wasn't thoroughly cleaned, found black mold growing on the ceiling of the closet. Otherwise, service was amazing, breakfast was delicious and service staff were great.

Personalized service, excellent buffet breakfast. Didn’t like the fact the price of the same dish via room service v eating at the restaurants downstairs was significantly higher. Also, stevia and Maggi hot and sweet sauce was not available. While the latter is minor, as a pre-diabetic, stevia is important

I forgot my camera at service desk. They brought it up to my room. Staff was very nice

The hotel was beautiful with great amenities and the staff were great. The spa experience was lovely and the spa manager in particular was very accommodating and attentive to our needs. Great experience, would recommend this place, 10/10.

Incredible GOA!!!

Phenomenal staff. Very helpful, friendly and caring.

We enjoyed our stay at Vivanta, Panaji. The staff was very co-operative and gave excellent service. Arpit Kutre at front desk was very courteous. Breakfast buffet was delicious, want to congratulate the cook Vinny , waiting staff and Sagan for making great filter coffee. Overall would highly recommend this hotel.

Good location, food was ok. The restaurant service was good. If I went back to Panaji I would stay in the old Portuguese quarters.

Amazing Experience

It was an amazing experience to stay in Vivanta Goa, Panaji, Goa, India. Hotel was really clean, food was amazing, Hotel staff was very professional and courteous. I would love to stay there again.

Our stay was memorable. It was good.

There was no VIP access as claimed by Expedia. The property front desk were not even aware of that program.

Staff was really nice. Service was exceptionally good.

Nice place, excellent services.

Nice area, wonderful staff

It was very pleasant stay. Really enjoyed the service and hospitality of the staff.

Though they have taken huge tariff, but they said no complimentary breakfast provided

Excellent location and services! Highly recommended!

Had a great stay - the hotel’s staff are super helpful and polite. The breakfast spread was excellent too.

Staff was extremely helpful, especially Raghuveer and Shanthanu on the 4th floor, Devanshu ensured a smooth checkout and checkin, Paresh knows all about Goa and makes a wonderful driver to cruise with on your journey, Arjun helped with the overall stay, and hats off to the management team, especially John who did such a wonderful job in our stay at Taj. It was also my birthday and Raghuveer went above and beyond, and made decorations in our room and ensured we had such a wonderful experience.

Unforgettable Luxury! Loved every second of it!

Vivanta Goa, Panaji is an outstanding hotel that offers a perfect blend of luxury, comfort, and convenience. Situated in the heart of Panaji, the hotel is an ideal location for those looking for a peaceful and relaxing stay in Goa. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a warm welcome by the hotel staff, who went above and beyond to make our stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. The rooms are spacious, well-appointed, and immaculately clean, with all the necessary amenities to make your stay comfortable. One of the standout features of Vivanta Goa, Panaji is the food. The hotel has several dining options that cater to every taste bud, from authentic Goan cuisine to international dishes.

Very friendly staff. Especially, Avinash and Raghiveer were very good. Nice breakfast with a great spread. The only negative was the creaky floor boards.

Very convenient location, very helpful staff, food was excellent,and loved the music during breakfast

Not a bad hotel!

Overall a solid stay. Some minor issues in terms of room cleaning, noisy neighbours and moving room, but the hotel management well accommodating and professional.

Overall, my impression of the hotel is very positive. From the moment I arrived, the staff were friendly and accommodating, making me feel welcome and comfortable. The location is great - right in the heart of Goa Panaji with easy access to all the city has to offer. One of the highlights of my stay was the breakfast, which had a wide variety of options from English to Indian breakfast, which suited my tastes perfectly. It was well-prepared, fresh and delicious, and the service was attentive and friendly. Another aspect of the hotel that impressed me was the quick turnaround time for any request. Whenever I needed anything, the staff were always prompt and efficient in their response. They were always happy to help and made me feel well-cared for throughout my stay. The rooms themselves were on the smaller side, but they had all the necessary amenities to ensure a comfortable stay. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom was clean and well-stocked, and the overall ambiance of the room was relaxing and inviting. I had the chance to use the sauna and spa facilities during my stay, and I have to say it was the cherry on the cake. The spa was luxurious and relaxing, with a range of treatments on offer to help me unwind after a long day of exploring the city. In summary, I would highly recommend Vivanta by Taj in Goa Panaji for anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay in Goa.

Vivanta Panaji is in a fantastic location for business in Panaji and surrounding areas, which is what I was looking for. I could walk everywhere in main Panjim business district and shopping. Short 10 minute walk to the Mandovi riverwalk area for running/walking exercise. Expedia and Vivanta should/could do a better job of more clearly differentiating the two Vivanta properties in Panjim - this one in Panjim and the other one is in Miramar nearby - it was quite confusing while planning our trip. To be clear, this is not a hotel for beaches if that is what you are looking for. The Indian hot breakfast at this hotel is amazingly good, even with some unique and authentic Goan offerings (we're Goans by origin). The service staff was extremely attentive and responsive to all needs. There is some kind of city canal or sewer that runs adjacent to the front of the property which is quite dirty and foul-smelling. I am not sure what if anything Vivanta can do about it, but it takes away from an otherwise fantastic hotel experience.

Good

The hotel staff was very polite and friendly - could not ask for a better service than what we got. Every staff member we encountered was very professional.

Review

For comfort and convenience, there is no better place than Vivanta, Panjim. The staff are so courteous and always have a smile on their face. Be it small things like table preference in the restaurant or requesting for a lady to accompany the in-room dining services personal as my daughter was alone and we got stuck with work one afternoon. Special thanks to Mr. Dipu Singh, Mr. Praveem Kumar, Ms. Sebirina and Ms. Kadambari. You guys rock and made our vacation so great. Thank you and I hope to see you again soon.

Lovely hotel, very attentive staff. Super clean and great location

Great staff

Excellent staff, chef made special food to accomodate my allergies. Concierge and Travel Desk were most helpful.

Vivanta, Panjim

It was a great stay experience. Everything is fine here including staff, room service, restaurant and overall ambience.

Average old property , breakfast very basic and limited menu every day , restaurants average , overall very average hotel and service

Feedback

Food was not good

Top Class

This Property is so well located that i love to opt for it if the prices are to my budget that times. The complete experience ... right from getting out of Car , Check in, Guide to room , Food spread, Breakfast , and continuous concern for your interests makes this property a top class option

Excellent Hotel and Excellent Staff services!

The Hotel is centrally located in Panaji nearby to all major attractions! Special mention of the Manager Mr.Manik Khanna who is very polite and treats all courteously! Special kudos to Mr.Manik Khanna for being such an asset to the Vivanta Panaji and for efficiently organizing everything! Excellent staff services under his supervision! We had a great family vacation time staying at the Vivanta,Panaji! Everything we needed during our stay was taken care of in the best way possible! Thanks to Mr.Khanna for everything! Rooms are well maintained and Buffet breakfast has a lavish spread.Would definitely recommend this Hotel to our friends and family!

Taj rocks!

Very comfortable stay. Friendly staff. Good sumptuous breakfast. Great location. My dog had no issues and even his stay was very comfortable. Taj rocks!

Everything is fine and we enjoyed stay a lot. Hygiene bis maintained at all the places

Awesome

Amazing

By Far the best Hotel experience in India

The Hotel provided complete comfort in terms of cleanliness , santisation , security. I highly recommend them in all aspects. The Staff actually takes care of you as if they are pampering you. The reception, the security , room service, and the staff in the restaurants try and actually ask you in person for any special requirement.

Rarely have I been treated so well as during my three days at Vivanta. Customer service, from the concierge to the waitstaff, was elevated to an art form. My best wishes go out to Vivanta in the difficult days ahead; I look forward to returning in Covid-free days in the future.

Perfect hotel!

Lovely hotel! The staff are amazing, helpful and very friendly. The room and bathroom were, as expected, very first-class. Amenities were more than adequate. Food was incredible, they have an authentic japanese menu here. I suggest you try! My wife injured herself at one point and the staff were kind enough to help her out. Could not recommend this hotel more!

Stay here!

The most amazing staff. I have traveled the world and this was the best staff I have ever encountered. They arranged everything we wanted to do and helped us navigate the travel cancelations and challenges owing to the Coronavirus. They even called Delhi To help us with this process. The hotel is awesome, the rooftop pool amazing. Breakfast is phenomenal. The neighborhood is cool. If you want to have the Goan beach experience, don’t stay here. But, you really should experience the old town, the old Portuguese architecture. It’s the real Goa.

Outstanding

Almost everything about this hotel was excellent. The cleanliness was outstandling, great location, wide selection of breakfast food items. Pool staff were outstanding Beautiful spa. Only small niggle - not enough wardrobe space for a long stay

The security was crazy and they charged more for dinner then we paid for the room

Excellent service from everyone from the pick up driver to front desk to breakfast staff to housekeeping. They really care for you and want to make your stay memorable. Rooms were 5 star with everything you would want including an iron and iron board. The location is excellent and restaurant prices are very reasonable. The buffet breakfast was excellent spread with great service beyond what was expected. Highly recommended!!

An excellent experience with Vivanta. Great location and sumptuous breakfast buffet. The rooftop swimming pool is a must to visit.

Excellent property well maintained and in the heart of the city

Look no further than the Vivanta Goa!

We were a bit skeptical staying in a city hotel when in Goa, but Vivanta was a fantastic surprise. Impeccable service all around, fantastic breakfast, attention to detail - they left a bedtime story for my son every night, gorgeous rooftop pool with a magical sunset, and the convenience of being close to great restaurants about town. What more could one ask for? Thank you Wren for such attentive service every morning at breakfast!

Overall our stay was pleasant. Rooftop pool area is lovely at sunset, food is exceptional, staff tries to be accommodating but the staffing plan is chaotic. The downside—The surfaces and textiles in our room were dusty and soiled. When we complained we got flowers and chocolates, which is not what we wanted. We just wanted a clean room. One fly in the bar and they moved us out to fumigate! That’s crazy. Priorities are misplaced. This is not how a Taj property should operate.

לפנק

מלון מפנק עם רמת שרות ממש גבוהה

Overall everything was super excellent here. Great hospitality received

This was an amazing stay. The staff, the location, the service was perfection.

There is nothing above than this hotel. Extremely happy to book my stay here, the staff, the hotel everything was beyond expectations. Special thanks to Ivanka who decorated my room for my birthday and surprised me. Sorry I couldn’t personally thank you but you are amazing, hope you get everything in your life. Best wishes from our side. Also the lady at reception who upgraded our room, you’re a gem. Love Taj Vivanta ❤️❤️ And Thank you Expedia for providing the best rate in the market. 😀😀 You guys made my trip memorable.

We always stay at Taj. No other chain comes close to the level of genuine care and pampering we receive at the Taj! The exceptional staff makes all the difference. Special mention to Viola (Guest Relations), Dipanker (Latitude restaurant), Ravi (Travel Desk) Dayanand (Car Tour Guide) and the swimming instructor (From Orissa, I am so sorry that I didn't take down your name) at the pool. We had such interesting conversations and they all made us feel extra special and looked after. Additionally they surprised us with their kind gestures and polite behaviour. This is what we go on holidays for! Completely relaxed, no tension and everything is looked after by the Taj. Definitely 10/10 and I recommend everyone come to this hotel and experience the magic!!!!! God bless you all

Got off to a bad start as they were not there to meet us at the airport and then had no record of our booking. Made up for it with a free meal! Good TAJ hotel and you can walk to all parts of the city. Comfortable and attentive would recommend and stay again. Hired a car from Joey's next to the ferry. Not for the faint hearted but gives a great opportunity for exploring.

Clean and modern. Good wifi. However the breakfast buffet was not up to par. The continental items especially - pastries etc were often stale. Some drinks are also left sitting out for too long - lassi, buttermilk, smoothies etc..these drinks end up separating and look unpleasant. A suggestion is to make those types of drinks to order instead of letting them sit for a couple hours or more. The Indian Good that was made fresh to order was however very good.

Beautiful decor, full amenities and generally to a high standard. Breakfast buffet have plenty of choice with some daily variation too. The staff are super friendly and attentive. They arranged free transportation for me to see my Aunt and when checking out to another hotel. Best hotel in Panjim.

They kept venting at me because I booked from Hotels.com. Was abit unpleasant. Didn’t upgrade me even though I’m a Taj member since 2003.

Good location in city. Value for money Excellent service.

Very cordial, humble & extremely supporting staff. They take extra care of the children by gifting them goodies & making them feel at home. The staff was very prompt even after having vacation rush & the hospitality was fabulous. The hotel has very good ambience, clean & extremely hygienic.Would like to visit again !

Convenient location. Helpful and polite staff.v good breakfast.

Superb stay

Excellent stay

sraff were very accommodating, restaurant was excellent

Excellent

Excellent hotel good value food great ,pool sweet ,breakfast amazing

We liked everything about this hotel, it was excellent, and the hospitality was second to none. The staff were so helpful and especially the chef who went out of his way to make sure we had food that met our dietary requirements. We loved staying here

One of the best service I’ve received in India in a Long time. We weren’t very happy with our room and the staff took the time to acknowledge that and within 24 hours offered to upgrade us. They were all super helpful during the stay and it was an absolute pleasure interacting with anyone at the restaurant to the front desk to the travel desk. The amenities were great as well and excellent food! I’d definitely stay here again.

Usual Taj experience, staff attentive and responsive. Hotel rooms very clean and comfortable. Breakfast very good with a good range of options. Tamari restaurant within the hotel definitely worth a try! The food was excellent.

Great location & all the staff were superb. Rooftop pool was a bonus & you received free fruit & bottled water during your visit to the pool.

Wonderful service and fantastic breakfast

The staff were wonderful, the restaurant food and breakfast were amazing, the best I ever had. Thank you for a wonderful stay

The price you see isn’t the price you pay

I really hate it when the price you see (when you book) isn’t the price you end up paying. The hotel added 1000 rupees in fees and taxes on arrival. Otherwise hotel is fine.

Welcoming and Convenient

The staff at this hotel provides excellent service and goes above and beyond. We were met with a welcoming cool drink when we arrived, and when our room wasn’t quite ready, they had us go to the restaurant for coffee and cookies, their treat. Restaurants stay open very late, and one is open 24 hours, which is useful and appreciated. The morning breakfast buffet was excellent, changed daily, and included live music. We received a piece of decadent chocolate cake for dessert on the day we left, with Bon Voyage written on the plate in chocolate. We would definitely stay at this hotel again. Just be aware there are no beach activities available right there as the nearest beach is Miramar, which is quite small. There is no nightlife or activities there.

The experience overall was fantastic, probably the best place to stay in the city and the staff was so accommodating and helpful, would highly recommend this place

Good by Indian standard.. May disappoint foreigner

We are a couple from Canada. Firstly, the hotel had made a mistake with regard to booking being paid already. They asked me to pay... I had hotel.com voucher saying it was paid... They still Insisted payment didn't go thru.. I checked my credit card payments online from 6 months ago, found the payment and showed them... Still confusion on hotel end... Not a good first impression. Not a positive feeling. We had booked a suite.. The suite we were given, for what I paid $300 cad a night, was small and dark... We have travelled a internationally, and the value for the money spent was just not there. The hotel moved us to a larger suite after a few days... It was more comfortable... It was more like what we expected when we made the booking. Hotel offered to let us stay on larger suite 3 extra days ( because of check in issue etc) We felt like the first suite we had spent a week in was such a waste of money for the small size of the suite and just bad layout.. Service with the valet, pool, and the guy at the cake and coffee shop was absolutely excellent. Very very good and attentive. I feel like the upper managemnet or "policy" of the hotel is what made us not love the hotel... I would rather stay in a Marriott or other International hotel... Reviews are good for this hotel, but most reviews are nationals of India, so review is relative to their perspective. We were disappointed and expected more.

Actually this property is strictly NO for family n couples... there r no single wardrobe in any room and service also very lazy, no kids activity, very small pool, nothing happening in@ Hotel accept locality and very near by River CASINOS..

excellent hotel in the center of Panjim. The buffet had a good selection especially the Indian sections.

A great hotel with wonderful staff. The only downside was the acoustic nature of the building, which made it difficult to sleep. Within our room you could hear all the noise from the main dining hall where the parties were hosted and in addition, you could hear other guests talking in the hallway and with constant opening and closing of the doors made it difficult to sleep. Other than that it was a very pleasant stay!

Nice hotel centrally located food quality is superb

Exceptional, competent and friendly staff. Safe, convenient location.

It was the third time that I was staying at this property. So, there is no doubt that I am satisfied with the quality of services that Taj Vivanta, Panaji, provides. However, the stay was made really memorable because of the outstanding service that was given by Mr. Praveen at the restaurant.

Well positioned near city centre. Rooms equipped for business people rather than holiday makers. Insufficient drawer space and lack of clothes hangers caused us to use suit cases for storing our belongings. (5days) Otherwise, staff friendly and helpful. Enjoyed the stay.

We always choose the Taj Vivanta when staying in Panjim and found that the standards were as high as usual on our latest visit. The complimentary transfer from the airport is appreciated.

It was a very pleasant experience staying at the Vivanta by Taj - Panaji. Nothing to complain as everything was in the right place. Food was good so as the room. I would definitely like to book this place again when I am visiting Goa next time. Overall 5 on 5.

It is located in panaji , which is central sopt

Very Nice and cordial hotel staff. Being at the center of Goa , we can plan visit in any directions ie South Goa , or North or Old Goa as per your choice. All boat cruises are near by , Nice Miramar family beach is within 10 minutes walk.Main Market is also very near by , where you can purchase spices and dry fruits at reasonable rate.

Nice hotel very friendly staff and the chef were e

On the door step to Panaji city. Very good for shopping

Good Business hotel, great service.

Taj Goa

Good

Amazing Hotel

Staff were amazing. Nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommended

Excellent Hotel

Enjoyed our stay here in Panjim. Excellent hotel with good bars & restaurants. Service at breakfast can be a bit chaotic but that's a minor grumble. The Chinese / Japanese restaurant "Tamaris" is outstanding.

Outstanding Stay

Excellent Hotel.......... Enjoyed A Lot.

Nice location and excellent staff!

This property is more like a buisness hotel right in the heart of Panaji City. Breakfast is good with a wide variety of dishes. Spa treatments are very good. Loved the rooftop swimming pool.

The best hotel in Panaji

Bearing in mind its location, in the city with little space for gardens or a large pool, the hotel is very good. Service is quick, effective and friendly and the buffet restaurant is pretty good. The price is also quite reasonable for a 5 star hotel.
