Vivanta by Taj - Panaji, Goa, is the new buzz in town. Where meeting has many meanings. It's close to where the river Mandovi meets the Arabian sea. Where the road leading down from the Chief Minister's residence in Altinho meets the centre of Goa's art & culture - The Kala Academy. 28 kms from Dabolim airport and bang in the heart of the city, the hotel is a smart stroll from all that is see-able and do-able in this capital city of Goa. It's where business meets pleasure. And today meets tomorrow. In rooms that spell Charm, Delight and Indulgence. Where work spaces define new standards in modern technology. A fully wired ballroom, hi-tech boardrooms, high profile meeting rooms set the Agenda for Debate, Strategy and Analysis. It's where the nouvelle restaurants, the high octane bar, and the Jiva spa will have you go "Ah!" And it's where Chef Sahil Desai gets set to wow you with specially designed meals. Soak in the space that's close to the business hub of Goa. Drive in from the airport delighting in backseat surprises (we're not revealing here). Better still take a speed boat or catamaran if the weather permits. You'll see how we mean business in a quiet efficient way from the moment you step in. Slowly discover the turtle theme design which to the local Hindu Goan community means good luck. And make it your business to quickly find out how fast we are up to speed. For every business need. And for paws, claws and jaws - we're perhaps the most pet friendly business hotel in town. Yet another fresh twist!
