The Banyan Soul

Me and my wife stayed here for 3 days in March 2015. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and have simple but elegant interiors. The courtyard outside the rooms is very beautiful. I was very pleasantly surprised with the aesthetics of the entire place. We really had no problems with the stay. The hotel is located a little interior (near the German bakery) in Anjuna, but it's not too bad to get around once you rent a vehicle. You can rent vehicles at the hotel at a nominal rate. For nearby eateries, the German bakery is just next door and is a nice place for breakfast. Curlies is also a short walk from the Banyan Soul, but we found it a bit difficult to walk to Curlies at night, as the walking route is very dark.

We stayed here for 3 nights. Hotel is next to German bakery and behind Anjuna flea market. 2 mins from the main beach. It is quiet and clean. No view from any room except whats in the compound. Bathroom is clean. AC, WiFi and TV work well.Has an open air mini library. Met the owner once. Very warm and courteous. They do not have an elaborate kitchen menu. Did not have cooking gas on 2 out of 3 days but the staff ordered from outside for us. The hotel rents out bikes slightly more expensive than outside. They need to work on the lawn n general aesthetics around the compound. Also, they should atleast fix a callbell since there is no intercom to call the reception. Overall decent affordable stay and Im definitely staying here again.

It is a good place to go with friends for sleepover. They only serve breakfast but with the German Bakery just 2mins walking distance, it's not a bad choice. Warm staff and peaceful location.

the stay was definitely relaxing and rejuvenating.

The room was nice but due to mosquitoes could not open the windows and therefore no aeration - luke warm water was available ( due to the lack of sun the solar panels couldn't heat up). Decent food was available inside the hotel which was helpful especially when raining.

I had booked the hotel between Oct 5 - 10, 2014 The hotel does not serve food and only serves breakfast which is overly expensive. There is no swimming pool in the hotel which is disappointing for a place in Goa. The images of the hotel room are hyped and actual room is pretty small without any lamps (that are showed in the images).

The place was ok.. you cannot expect much out of it.. It is a typical budget accomodation and it is extremely tiresome to locate this place as there are no sign boards and neither does Google maps point to the correct place. It supposedly takes you to the owner's house.

Best place to stay with your partner. .staff is very helpful..affordable price..close to curlies is the best feature added to it.

I visited Goa with my wife and son to attend my nephew's wedding. I stayed in this hotel for 5 days. Hotel is good for staying only like a guest house.No resturant. Food had to be ordered from neary by resturant and they door delivered it. Stay was good. Staff is courteous. Only bad thing is that they do not clean up the room daily. During my five days stay room was cleaned only once that also after insisting. Hot water was not available as they use solar panals to heat water and it was raining during my stay. There is no intercom/telephone or calling bell in the room. I had to go their reception area to call room boys for any service and when it is raining such things are really bothering. The management of the hotel should take note of this and improve such small facilities.

I recently stayed here for three days. The hotel is really close to the german bakery, curlysand the beach. Great rooms and wifi. It was affordable and very much worth the money. They also have a scooter rental inside so you don't have to go looking for one.
