Resort Panjim Inn - Goa
The Panjim Inn has been Part of the Romantic
Latin Quarter Pantheon for Many Years and was Amongst the First
Big Colonial Mansions of Fontainhas in Panaji Goa.
Built in the late 1800’s by Francis Assis D’Silveira,
a Landed Gentleman and Successful Businessman it has been owned
by the Same Family over 5 Generations. The Gilded Pelmets and
Wrought Iron Railings which run across the 1st Floor Balcaos
and Verandahs Sport the Family Insignia.
The Panjim Inn is an Eco friendly Resort with a solar water heating & rain-water harvesting facility
besides energy saving devices being used wherever feasible.
In spite of space constraints composting of wet kitchen waste
is being done on the premises. So as to reduce plastic waste
efforts are on to install solar stills and provide pure water
for drinking.
Sitting on Turn of the Century Rosewood Chairs and Tables
over a Beer or a Local Feni or Sipping a Juice, one can Observe
the Town People go about their Mundane Chores. A Little Imagination
- Down Memory Lane to Better Times, to an Old Fashioned World
of Chivalry and Noblesse Oblige and You can Envision Youthful
Romeos Serenading Comely Damsels from Below the Balcaos or
Perhaps almost hear the Wistful Lament of a Portuguese Fado
emerge from the Shadows of Twilight.
