It's a nice big hotel. The first impression is great as the reception and lobby areas are modern and beautiful. The room is huge. The biggest 4 stars room I've experienced in my trip to Portugal but a little characterless as it's not nicely decorated as the lobby of the hotel. Bathroom is also big. Bed linen provided could be... More

A new hotel, outside the historic centre. Not very far, but we can't say that it is a very short walk. I found it very comfortable, with a nice staff, great breakfast and - if your faces it - a lovely view of the river. My room had a big balcony on which I literally spent hours. The fridge contents...

Generally, this hotel is fine. Everything is pretty new because this hotel has been build in 2010 or so. Rooms are really large and confortable, samething for the bathroom. The lobby is pretty impressive too. People at the reception are really kind. This is a really high quality hotel that respond to all our modern standard. The only think I... More

We stayed here for one night before heading to Porto. It is located close to the bus station and when you come out of the station look to your right and there are signs directing you to the hotel. It is within walking distance of the Old University. Check-in was quick and efficient. Reception gave us a coupon for a... More

I was at Vila Galé Hotel to congress a week ago! The room was uninteresting and the decoration was poor. The bathroom was spacious and okay. Unfortunately there was a constant noise in the room that was not due to air conditioning or refrigerator. After complaining at the reception I was informed that my room was above the general electric... More

This hotel offers you a great combination of both relaxing vacation with big modern rooms and facilities-swimming pool and spa,and it is about 10 minutes walk from the old city, and for those who travel by public transportation, as we did, it is about 5 minute walk from the bus...

We walked into this hotel with no reservation and were treated like old customers. The design is comfortably modern. The mini bar is yours for the taking... at no charge. I must say that was a first and one I now wish I had taken advantage of. It's about a 10-15 minute walk to the old town, but not a... More

We spent the weekend at the Vila Galé Coimbra, to take advantage of the end of the summer weather. We arrived and were informed that we had a complimentary bar in the room and were offered a free bottle of wine for dinner. As we reached the room, received complimentary fruit and water. We wondered if the room number was... More

Modern contemporary hotel. We were on the 5th floor with a city view. Very comfortable bed and large comfortable room. Bathroom was very clean and the breakfast was great - lots of choices. We got a room with free parking and breakfast and felt it was a good value. Hotel staff were great - good guest focus and very pleasant. More
