Lonely Planet Review
From the people who brought the Panjim Inn to the Old Quarter comes Panjim People's, the most decadent of them all. With the same intention of old-world revival, the People's is a step up in elegance from the other options in the area.
If you're lucky enough to get one of the four bright and airy rooms in this landmark of Fountainhas, you're in for a travel treat. Rooms truly do justice to the proud exterior of this converted heritage building. Decadent four-poster beds, colonial-era furniture and tiled mosaic bathrooms allow you to immerse yourself away from the entire modern world, despite modern amenities like fridge and TV. The larger room at the back of the building has an ornately carved antique rosewood bedhead which is an elegant centerpiece. Each of the four rooms has slightly different character, though all have private balconies overlooking picturesque fragments of the Old Quarter. Downstairs is Cafe Gitanjali where you can enjoy old and modern art over a hot or cold drink.
