ibis Styles Goa Calangute Hotel 3 stars

Rooms and bathroom were small - every review says that when you plan to book Ibis, but let me tell you, in this COVID 19 ERA, if you want a sanitized environment, if you want a safe, clean, hygienic environment to enjoy your rest time in Goa, Choose Ibis over others. The feel of a 4-star hotel just 2 km away from Baga and Calangute Beach is something that you can think of. With amazing food, housekeeping, helping staff, management staff, you can leave all your headaches to the hotel and enjoy your evenings in the beach area. No restrictions on late-night entry. The security is always awake and ready to serve. Shops, petrol stations, medical and market are all in the near vicinity from Ibis Styles, Calangute. Adding to the above, Ibis has the best chef and serving staff in the restaurant area. Breakfast is free but I am sure that the level of amazing breakfast with multiple varieties every day would cost a minimum of 1000/- per person. Absolutely superb food. We met Mahinder (has a tattoo with him) from the restaurant area who suggested us some good evening snacks and ensured we had it when we needed it. The manager at the restaurant area never made us feel like he was the manager. All the arrangements and cleanliness were maintained properly in the restaurant area. We started liking the room after the first night. The moment we checked in, we were given basic info of food ordering QR codes, etc at the front desk along with the password of Free Wifi. When we checked in, we were asked to fill up a survey so that if we had anything to mention, the front desk could fix it. Amazing Customer Support and Customer Feedback gathering system!! Wifi is superb. We got a speed of 10 MBps on the Wifi and watching Netflix or Amazon Prime Video was never a challenge. From the Front Desk, Ajith is probably the lead, who ensured we were not felt alone and the experience was amazing till we stayed. He called back to ensure we are safe and have everything we need. Within the room, The mattress was very comfortable and one won't get back pain! The bathroom is very nice. The housekeeping staff is amazing and the guys are always wearing gloves and masks ensuring you are safe. They will keep your room cleaned and freshened in such a manner that when you come back, you will feel fresh again. Interior design and lighting was very thoughtfully done and was awesome. Housekeeping guys: Shubhojit Mondol and Arnab Adhikari were serving us during our stay and both were cool guys :) Thanks to them for their service and making sure everything was perfect in our room. For anything extra needed, go ahead and ask them and they will get them to you. Overall, this was an amazing and safe experience for us in Goa. We stayed for 4Nights 5 Days in Ibis and it was amazing. We did want to spend some time in the Pool area but unfortunately due to Govt restrictions in Covid, we could not access it, otherwise, Ibis offers two beautiful adult pools along with a kids pool. We plan to try that when we visit the next time. Getting a Rented Scooter and Taxi from Hotel to Airport was a Breeze. A person named Uday at the gate will get you a scooter and taxi or any such request right from the gate of Ibis. You will get his number from Ibis when you stay there. Carry a stick while coming back to the Hotel from the beach (post 11:30 PM) as dogs come out on the road which takes you back to the hotel from the Baga beach. We faced some chasing one night from the dogs and the next day we carried a stick along with us. The experience was better.

I was at IBIS for 4 nights with my 1 year old kid in nov 1st week and It was an amazing experience. They really took good care of us. Well Sanitized safe and secure. Definitely Value for money hotel. Had good experience with front office folks Ajith and Apoorva. Check in process was quick and simple. In house restaurant Spice-It buffet breakfast was good. There was an offer running for dinner and we had dinner here couple of times. Vijay, Mahender who are are from Spice-It restaurant are excellent folks and served us really well given we have 1 year old kid with us. Ashraf TI Suraj, Kishan and Subojith from House-keeping staff did their job well. They kept room clean and resolved minor issues quickly. Very good turn-around time. Overall fantastic experience and I would definitely recommend this place for anyone especially families.

good

Post lockdown this was my first travel experience and I must say, I felt safe when reached hotel, with all the safety measures taken. Room was quite spacious and comfortable. Although pool was closed due to Covid, the greenery is soothing. Hotel is located just 1 km from Calangute Beach, so just a stroll and you will reach to the beach. Breakfast buffet was nice.

Vacation in a Ibis hotel has always been a pleasant experience for us, be it in India or abroad. Wonderful memories we have gathered. Thank you Ibis for amazing hospitality.

Check in Process Very Lengthy. Approximately 1 hrs waiting in Passage, 4 room Book In Before 25 Days and before one day personally called and told me check in time but no ready room.( please improve Services)

I feel the hotel location is a bit in the interiors. The services were good and the hotel staff was okay. The only problem was when we called in the reception for anything like a plate, a glass of ice the only response was everything is chargeable? When you go out to any restaurant or hotel you go and ask for a plate do they charge you. Atleast I haven't seen something like this. The breakfast was good and variety of dishes everyday. Staff co-operation was appreciated. Thank you.

Budget stay

It was a good 3N break... the room was clean & comfortable and breakfast was good too. Appreciate efforts by the IBIS Calangute team in the current pandemic situation to maintain hygiene, safety, and other guest services.

Gotta say this will remain a memorable stay in Goa with Ibis styles , thank you for making the a special one and will always get back to this place everytime I'm in Goa. Thank you ibis and a big thank you to Accor All for the craziest offers on the stay

We had our short vacation and it was made a very good experience by ibis. Only thing I missed was variety in food menu rest everything was superb. Wonderful hospitality, beautiful rooms

Enjoyed lot because of excellent services

Property looks very old, unmaintained, and unfriendly.

I’ll summarise as below- 1. Approach to hotel is not easy 2. Other than the reception, services at the restaurant, room service took extensive time and not up to the mark. 3. Cramped feeling in the rooms, no place to dry clothes.

All safety measures in place good team work & helping staff
