A
beautifully restored 300 year old Portuguese era manor house that once belonged
to a governor of Macau, Siolim House is now a unique boutique "Heritage"
Hotel in Goa, unlike other hotels.
When we decided to restore the house in 1996, Siolim House's future looked
bleak - for five years it had fought a losing battle with the Goa monsoon
. A family's history seemed to be fading away, and like so many other elegant
homes, it would see its end. But over three years, without sparing any detail,
from its lime plaster to its patterned floor tiles, the house was lovingly
brought back.
Location: Siolim House is still a private home, and we hate to call
it a hotel. The entire restoration of Siolim House was done with a view to
it being a home, and therefore we were very generous in our use of space.
In a building that had twenty four rooms there are today only seven suites
and seven bathrooms. No necessity was felt to cram rooms in, and so we have
spacious public areas and rooms.
Accomodation: Siolim House would be thoroughly enjoyed by that kind
of person who knows that luxury has nothing to do with hotel receptions, air
conditioning, glass atriums, piped music in hotel elevators, bell boys with
funny caps, 'coffee shop' menus, uniformed waiters, checkout times, complaints
departments, guest service officers and other such things and has everything
to do with giving yourself the chance to really relax. Siolim House is no
competition to a hotel until the day they all want to be like us, which is
highly unlikely! ("you can't run a hotel like this!").
We hate to call Siolim House any thing but a home, so call it yours while
you enjoy your holidays in Goa and unwind on nearby goa beaches, that are
among Goa's most wonderful.
Once our guests visit nearby Mandrem, Morjim, Arambol and Ashwem beaches they
can never go anywhere else, and Siolim House is hugely fortunate in being
located so close to these beaches where you can really feel you own miles
of empty beaches.
While on holiday in Goa you can also enjoy Goa's alternative culture or see
the historical and cultural sights of Goa
