Staying in Vasco Da Gama

Vasco Da Gama is a working Goan city, not a resort strip. Its character comes from Mormugao Port, the railway station and the markets and schools of a diverse resident population, with Portuguese and Indian influences side by side. The site describes it as a slice of Goan urban life away from the tourist-heavy beaches, and a practical starting point for discovering Goa, with Baina Beach on its southern side and Bogmalo and Hollant a short drive away. The city centre around the municipal market and bus stand has the shops, restaurants and transport links.

The hotels on this shortlist sit in that central and southern band. The Flora Grand is 0.1 km from the centre near Vaddem Lake, Regenta Place Vasco Goa is 0.3 km away, and La Paz Gardens Beacon Hotel Vasco da Gama, The Hq, Hotel Supreme and M The Business Hotel are all between 1.3 and 1.7 km out. Hotel Rukmini and Oyo 2195 Hotel Maharaja lie furthest, 2.1 and 2.2 km. Couples and short-break visitors get pools, bars and restaurants; families get family rooms at The Hq, Hotel Rukmini and The Citadel Hotel; business travellers get business centres and meeting rooms.
