All of the staff were helpful and welcoming. The cleaning staff on the 4th was very as efficient and kept the room tidy. The wait staff in the restaurant were helpful and even ensured that my order was cooked with no spices due to digestive problems. The hotel was in a safe location and the river view from my room was excellent. Now for the cons: the pool was inviting and I know it was windy which is why there were leaves and other debris floating in the water, the hotel could use some updating and sprucing up, and the casino forced us to play the tables before you could play the slots which was really weird. I handed my chips to my husband and walked out- we had heard of none of the tables in the casino; therefore didn’t know how to play which meant it was a waste of my time and money; the only table we had heard of was Black Jack and it was full.

Overall experience: 10/10.
The food was great, and the staff was very friendly and cooperative. Check-in and check-out were smooth and efficient.

A couple of constructive suggestions:
•The room should have a second key for the second guest staying in the same room.
•The elevator has an unpleasant odor that needs attention.

Overall, a wonderful stay — highly recommended!

I wouldn’t stay here again

I could not praise the staff I met highly enough. They succeeded in solving every problem with a smile. But did there really need to be so many problems?
The fridge that didn’t work likewise tv box (both swapped out) Wfi issues, key card failures. The strip light over the tv that could not be switched off and had to be disconnected. They were able to change our room when our drunken neighbours kept us awake for two nights. The rooms had interconnecting doors which made them noisy. This is a Casino Hotel, not something mentioned on Hotels.com (I would not have booked if they had) and therefore prone to groups of noisy men. To be positive breakfasts were good and the rooms cleaned thoroughly and of a good size. Don’t bother paying for a river view, the noise from the many riverside casinos is awful. Good central location nice pool.

Best Hotel in Panaji

I’m quite sure this is the nicest hotel in central Panaji. You never really know until you are actually there. But I find it hard to imagine that anybody would be unsatisfied with a stay at the Crown Goa. The location is perfect, everything is close enough to walk. It sits like a crown, perched a top a hill, overlooking the Mandovi River An easy elevator ride gets you up to the hotel terrace.

A river view room is well worth the extra money. I had a spectacular view out over the bougainvillea lined terrace to the river below. Each night, lit up party boats would run up and down the river. All of the staff were exceedingly polite and friendly. You will be greeted at least five or six times as you enter or leave the hotel, by wait staff, security, and maintenance crews. The hotel is beautiful in form and impeccably clean.

There is an outstanding restaurant that offers a huge breakfast spread with many Indian hot dishes and breakfast items. The dinner menu is so varied, the food so good, and the poolside terrace such a beautiful place to dine, that I chose to eat there all three nights in Goa, despite the large number of restaurants nearby. I can scarcely believe I chose such a phenomenal hotel without having actually seen it. It is the only place I will stay when visiting Panaji.

Excellent 4 days vacation experience in Panaji at the Crown Hotel. Maintenance and service was excellent. All staff members were always helpful and friendly.

The location of the hotel was also excellent.

Surprisingly, Goa (Panaji at least) was unseasonably hot (it was 35 degrees in the middle of January) this year, even though other cities in India we visited during the same trip were a lot cooler and comfortable. But that made returning to the hotel even more of a sanctuary.

Good location, nice hotel, not 5-star though

My room was big and comfortable, with a mini-fridge. The staff was helpful. It's listed as a 5-star hotel, but in reality it could be viewed as a truly excellent 3-star or a so-so 4-star. The breakfast only had a few selections, but several of them changed every day, which is a good thing when you stay several days. My room was on the top floor, and there must be a metal roof, because it rained on my last day and it was so loud in the room I couldn't think. I also fault the hotel for turning up on the hotels.com website under the filter \"Includes airport shuttle\", which turned out to be false (although other hotels had shuttles waiting at the airport when I arrived).

I expected more

The hotel is pretty, nicely located on a hill in the middle of the city. It is also noisy. Between the whistles of the traffic wardens, the construction behind the building, the church bells at odd hours at night and the events in the echoey atrium, it is hard to truly enjoy the hotel. The gaps around the room door doesn’t help at all. The staff is not unfriendly but also not overly accommodating. Breakfast is great though and the onsite restaurant eliminates a reason to walk through a dirty town for food.

the hotel was amazing , a bit noisy though but they have this obsession of constantly cleaning and sometimes it was not as quiet as you wished for.

Crown of Panjim

We travelled as a family through India and were made to feel welcome by the hotel staff and also received a room upgrade to give us more space, along with some local wine and cake, which added a nice touch.
Breakfast had a good selection of Local and western dishes and hotel security was good. The hotel was difficult to find at first, but our taxi driver managed it by using GPS (perhaps basic instructions of how to find the hotel could be included with the booking confirmation). The hotel location is away from the main road and therefore it’s quiet, but it’s within short walking distance to the beautiful church of Mary of Immaculate conception and also the other sights in Panjim and we felt safe exploring the city by walking. The hotel has fantastic views of the river and has a great pool with sun beds and towels, where we were able to cool down from the heat. Thank you to the wonderful staff at the Crown for the enjoyable stay!

Great hotel if looking for some downtime

The Hotel was very nice and our room was spacious comfortable and clean.. The breakfast was good as were all the meals. Prices were also good at the hotel. We enjoyed happy hour each day with two for one drinks. The hotel has lovely grounds and very nice views of the river. There is a casino on the first floor however it was closed as we were staying there between seasons. On a whole its a great hotel in a very nice location. The downside was the area. We had travelled quite a bit in India before arriving and we found the local area a little lacking . We did try the tourist desk and we also spoke with other guests. We did not find a lot to see. Also the other problem we had was the wifi which worked perfectly on the weekend when the hotel was quite busy. However once a lot of the guests left so did the wifi. Seemed very strange. The wifi was always available in the lounge and sitting areas just not in your room. This hotel is perfect if you are seeking some down time and just need to relax and the staff are very helpful.

Loved the location and loved the historical old Goa building . There is a lot of history related to the current location and the surrounding areas, Goa has beautiful beaches but longer than the hippy beach culture there is Original Goa history. This hotel encapsulates that in building and feeling.

Staff very friendly, had a few minor hiccups but life is not perfect. .perfection leads to negative issues in your own mind. Like India as a whole the experience opens your mind and your own approach to life.

The hotel offered us a room upgrade. View front the hotel of the Mandovi river was excellent. New Years eve party and buffet was great

The hotel is on a small hill, so it has a nice view of the river. It is beautiful at night. It has an in-house casino, so I guess it is good for those who are interested in it. The location is great, close to the church, the latin quarter, the cruise boas, and the main shopping/restaurant area. However, the room is a bit dated, and does need some refurbishment. The swimming pool was under 'renovation' at the time. However, they did not tell us when we booked the room.

Lovely weekend gateway

arrived early in the morning. Had a really good breakfast, the check-in time was 2:00 pm, and we were already there by 8:30 am. The hotel accommodated us with a very nice room (they gave us an upgrade from to a much bigger and airy room) by 11:00 pm. that's almost 3 hours before the check-in time, at no extra cost.
The room service, the harbour cafe, the people at the reception, everyone is so friendly and helpful that we felt a little pampered. the food is great too. the spread on the breakfast & dinner buffett is vast and their a-la-carte choices are good too. surprising the prices are modest too (compared to the small vegetarian restaurant, \"Ruchi\" located closer to the Panjim bus stand, we had visited for lunch).

more so, considering me and my daughter had food poisoning before we departed from bangalore.
the hotel accommodated all our requests (food, stay, search for medical necessities) with a smile.

all in all, a very nice place to stay with family. thanks for making our stay wonderful.

Not a five star hotel

The views from the terrace and river facing rooms are stunning - the best in Panjim, and the location is convenient for the centre of town.
The Crown has its own particular charm, but if you are expecting a five star hotel you will be disappointed. The rooms are in desperate need of refurbishment, the area around the pool has broken plastic grates which have gone green, the staff are generally helpful but some are very challenged to speak English, and the chefs have difficulty producing poached eggs or pancakes. The barman was unable to make a simple cocktail, but to his credit he did try go on line and try and get a recipe, so full marks for ingenuity!
