If a corporate customer has an early morning flight and unable to avail his breakfast. And if he has a request to convert the breakfast coupon into an equivalent or lesser amount of dinner service. It could have been a basic sandwich. The same could be considered as an exception.

Deepti M. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

Novotel Donna Silva was a great stay. We have always stayed at Cavelossim beach in south Goa due to it being less crowded , but this was our first stay at this property, which is well located. As soon as you step out there is bunch of major eateries. The property itself is great, neat and well maintained for a comfortble stay. The meandering pool is great and staff is super lolvely. Breakfast experience was below par though for Novotel.

Dear Deepti, Greetings from Novotel Goa Dona Sylvia Resort! We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your wonderful feedback. It is a pleasure to know that your stay with us was enjoyable. Your kind words are incredibly motivating for our team and inspire us to continue delivering exceptional experiences. We are grateful for your recommendation and support.

Bhavin B. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

We had a fantastic experience staying at Novotel. From the beautiful beachfront setting to the excellent hospitality, everything made our stay memorable. The property is beautiful, well-maintained, neat and tidy, with a lovely beachside ambience. The pool was great, and the food was enjoyable too. Overall, it was a wonderful place to relax and spend quality time with family. A special mention to Vikrant, the F&B Manager, for his hospitality, and an extra-special shout-out to Gita Ma'am from Guest Relations. She was absolutely wonderful! We were travelling with our little baby, and she made sure that our baby's needs and comfort were always taken care of. That extra attention and personal care made us feel genuinely welcomed. I would also like to appreciate a gentleman from the maintenance team, Yusuf (if I remember the name correctly). Our baby's stroller tyre had broken during the stay, and he went completely out of his way to help us get it repaired. He didn't have to do that, but he took the initiative and made sure we were not inconvenienced. These may seem like small gestures, but when you are travelling with a baby, such thoughtful acts make a world of difference. They reflect the true spirit of hospitality. A beautiful property, good food, a lovely pool, a fantastic beachfront location and, most importantly, a team that genuinely cares about its guests. Thank you to the entire Novotel team for making our family stay so comfortable and memorable. We would love to visit again and would happily recommend this property to families, especially those travelling with little ones!

Suraj P. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

We had a really good stay at Novotel Goa Dona Sylvia Resort. Everything was great, and we enjoyed our overall experience. The only thing that could have been better was the bed arrangement. We were given two single beds, but since we were travelling with our 4-month-old baby, a king-size bed would have been much more comfortable and convenient for us. Apart from that, everything was good, and we had a pleasant stay. Overall, a great experience!

Dear Suraj, Greetings from Novotel Goa Dona Sylvia Resort! Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are delighted to know that you had a pleasant stay and enjoyed your overall experience with us. We sincerely regret the inconvenience caused by the bed arrangement. We appreciate your suggestion and understand the importance of a comfortable king-size bed, especially while travelling with your little one. We will certainly take note of this for future stays. We look forward to welcoming you and your family back for another memorable holiday. Warm Regards, Dennis D’Costa

Can be more attentive to the customers. I understand there are more customers due to holidays, but hospitality can still be maintained. I promised a very good and pampered stay to my family due to my previous experiences, but unfortunately it did nt meet my expectations.

Reddivari A. R. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

The overall experience was poor, the staff were pre occupied with a large conference and a wedding, there was no one to assist the resort guests. The food was below average, the spread was poor, some non veg dishes were cold and your staff in the dining area were tired and overworked. The walk ways with a lot of bird droppings were being cleaned in the morning hours during breakfast time. The Pool was open at 8.30 am by which time the sun was already up, most resports allow pool access by 7 am. Looking at the way on which the whole establishment is set up appears to more of what is convenient for the resort rather than thinking what is good for the guests. I will neither return to your resort nor will I recommend it to any one.

Dear Reddivari A., Greetings from Novotel Goa Dona Sylvia Resort. We sincerely regret that your stay did not meet your expectations. Please accept our apologies for the lack of assistance, food quality and temperature, dining service, cleanliness of the walkways, and pool opening timings. We understand your disappointment and acknowledge that our guests should receive attentive service and a comfortable experience regardless of the events taking place at the resort. Your feedback has been shared with the concerned teams for immediate review and corrective action. We are truly sorry to have let you down and hope to have an opportunity to restore your confidence in our resort. Warm regards, Dennis D’Costa
