Le Méridien Goa, Calangute

Le Méridien Goa, Calangute

10/10 Excellent
"I have stayed previously too at Le Meridian with friends and this time I got a chance to stay with family. The courteous staff and hospitality you get at Le Meridian is unmatched. The reception staff , pool staff and those in dining areas are prompt, warm and helpful . The breakfast buffet is grand although the non vegetarian opens have reduced and are not in display and you get them on request. That was a change. Since lot of families with children are residing at the hotel one should be ready to put up with the noise from playing toddlers and children. I didn’t t mind that for one. It is well connected and 5-7 minutes ago sell to Candolim beach. The swimming pool is clean and high point of the hotel. Will definitely stay again …."
