Goa Hotel Side Garden of Siolim House

The house has seven bedrooms (including two suites) named after trading ports/areas of the 18th century mostly along the Konkan coast where Goa is located, during the time Siolim House was at its prime. Each room or suite has attached tastefully designed large bathrooms.

There is a large garden with bursting bouganvilla bushes and fragrant trees and a pergola in what we call the "secret garden", a fully equipped kitchen, an inner pillared courtyard with a mosaic fountain and a part that even has a step well that provides water for the house. There are several large halls,and an 12.5 meter overflow swimming pool, great for laps! You can see it on the photos page.

Today a small boutique Goa hotel, Siolim House is an exceptionalexample of Goan architecture - a fusion of European and Indian styles in what was the earliest

permanent meeting for the two cultures. As regards the accommodation in our boutique hotel, there are four guest rooms in the front building (Macao and Macassar on the first floor, and Malabar and Bahia on the ground floor), and three (Cambay, Damao and Surat) in the rear around the pillared courtyard. Macao and Malabar are the suites, with the latter having 2 large bedrooms. You can see photos on this sitetoo and the architectural plan for the ground floor and for the first floor will give you a better idea of the layout of the property.
