The property was amazing, was very quiet and peaceful, and walkable to the beach in 10 mins. We booked half board and had dietary requirements and they catered to it for the meals.

Courteous and very friendly staff in the buffet restaurant, especially Ms. Yashoda if we got the name right. Indian food is the highlight, we ate the same cuisine for 4 days straight and still wanted more. Good pool area as well. Great location next to the buzzing Candolim beach road.

Awesome service at the Novotel Candolim spa

We had an excellent stay. Of special mention are the staff at the Food Exchange. Our son is a special needs child who eats a very limited range of foods. They made every attempt to take care of our kids.A special shout out to Avi, Shubada, Shailendra, Chef Mahendra and the rest of the team. A big thank you!

A very pleasant stay close to Candolim beach

Large, spacious hotel. Rooms set alongside a large, airy atrium area. Room was reasonably-sized, clean and comfortable. Well-equipped bathroom, WiFi worked throughout. Staff were friendly and helpful, allowed us to store bags and helped with a taxi to airport. Breakfast was good, a large spread including omlets cooked to order, not busy too. The outdoor area was nice with a play area for children. However, the one disappointment was the condition of the pool - loose and broken tiles not ideal, especially for youngsters. Located on a quiet lane close to Candolim Beach Road and beach area.

"Exceptional Hospitality

Novotel Gotel and spa in Goa impresses with its vibrant atmosphere, friendly staff it’s an old well maintained property.Kids loved the pool area and it’s close proximity to candolim beach makes it an ideal retreat. Guests consistently praise the Novotel resort and Spa in Goa for its exceptional staff. The team is recognized for their warm hospitality, attentive service, and willingness to go above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay. From the reception Linda, Shambhavi and Anchal at the restaurant, Daljit,Avi and Shubatra have been really helpful and were always around and took good care of us and not to mention Francis from the pool bar makes some amazing cocktails a must try,visitors often highlight the friendly and helpful demeanor of the staff, contributing to a positive and memorable experience at Novotel Hotel and Spa Goa.

If you are looking for a resort vibe, on a small scale, that is family friendly, this is a great option. We were looking for a little bit of peace and quiet to recharge our batteries and it is exactly what we found staying at the Novotel. Great service, nice infrastructures, lots of food options on site and a pool to enjoy the sun without the crowds of Candolim Beach. The hotel is well located, the beach is a 9-minute walk. The staff was very helpful and keen to give us tips and tricks. Beware of taxi services in the area. Although it has nothing to do with the hotel, it is worth mentioning that it is quite a challenge to move around in Goa for a reasonable price, especially when you are leaving a resort like this (Uber and Goa Miles don’t really work and the fares proposed by drivers are way higher than anywhere else in India). Do your research in advance. Again, nothing to do with the hotel itself, but it can impact your decision. If you are looking for a place to chill, we recommend!

The service was great and the staff were very accommodating. The hotel feels a bit worn out and needs a bit of an uplift for Novotel standards and the price you pay. Also, they don't have enough pool lounges to accommodate the resort occupancy. If you do not get to the pool early, it's very hard to find a lounge for you to relax. The whole pool is in the shade of a huge tree, which is great, however the pool water is always freezing cold. There are also lots of berries form the tree on the bottom of the pool. The pool also is very unsafe as it has tiles missing especially on the floor so you have to be very careful when walking around the pool. Most of the edges of the pool are also very unsafe as the tiles are not flush and hence there is a rough edge which can cause cuts. The area around the pool is also very slippery, which caused quite a few people to slip and fall. The breakfast was great and had a great variety. They also made fresh omelets, Dosas and Uthappams. Room service was good, however we often had to call multiple times to get a bucket of ice! They had a Christmas day buffet lunch with drinks for Rs 2500 per person, which was great. Overall, the food and service were great, however the pool and accommodation let us down for Novotel standards. Location is great as it is walking distance to the main road (approx 7 minutes) where there are lots of shops and restaurants and about a 15 minute walk to the beach which was great as well.
