Average

Less said the better about this property. We had a stop over on our trip to Goa, at this place for an overnight stay. Except for kitchen staff there is nothing good about the stay here. Decent breakfast. Very old property. Rooms were not that clean. Floor was dirty. We had booked the suite but cleanliness was biy dissapointing. ACs, wall paint, bathrooms werent impressive at all for the price we paid (INR 6400). Overpriced for the Quality delivered.

Stopover at Sterling Karwar.

This was a one night stopover as we were coming from Badami . The restaurant served us good food made to our liking except that the taxes added to the food bill was exorbitant. Service charges plus two GST taxes. Breakfast was also good. Restaurant staff were courteous.Overall the stay was good but i dont think that it was value for money .

Starling Karwar is a good place to rejuvenate. The privilege suites are spacious, well maintained and offers a good view of the Kali river and the Arabian see. The restaurant offers delicious foods though options are limited. Staffs are courteous and helpful. With Activity centre, swimming pool, kids play area and many other facilities, Sterling Karwar is a good place for family trip.

I'd Stay Again

Large comfortable room. Comfy King bed. Lots of hot water. Easy Check in & check out. Lovely staff. Good food delivered to the room. Although I noticed 3 or 4 different taxes added to each bill. Free Breakfast had great choice and was nice. Billiards table was nice.. Now for the negatives. A bunch of very loud staff came in while I was playing Pool, and ruined the experience. Coffee no good. TV too small for size of room. Complimentary toiletries had to be asked for..

Ok hotel.

Ok hotel - men lidt slidt. Gode senge men meget, meget langsomt internet og pengeskabet var ikke fastmonteret, så det kunne tages under armen og fjernes. Mange strømafbrydelser. Ikke særligt godt køkken. Boede i en suite på 1. sal i bygningen på billedet.
