Stayed here for 3 nights at end of May. Really loved Porto and travelled around a lot because the public transport...Metro, buses and Tram are all first class, very clean, safe and well organised. Make sure you visit beach by tram or Metro as they are lovely and nice to get out of town. Hotel is nice, as mentioned it... more

We stayed here for two nights parking our car for the duration so that we could sightsee. We were slightly shocked on our first evening in the restaurant, which runs a buffet style set meal, to be overlooking lean-to corrugated roof structures. We felt uncomfortable at being in this enormous tower overlooking these peoples' homes. It's a plush hotel and... more

Great hotel on a nice location: walking distance is some 15 minutes from the city centre. Breakfast was nice and big, with a great service. Small garage may be a problem, but there is other parking place near the hotel. Overall, would stay here again. more

It is a rather straightforward hotel, with a fantastic, friendly staff and more than decent, confortable rooms (great pillows) and in a central location, within walking distance to the city centre and the FC Porto Dragão stadium. It has a supermarket in front, plenty bus stations around and a subway station mere 150 meters from the hotel, which is set... more

Just back from a lovely weekend in Porto having stayed at the Vila Gale Hotel. Like the reports I had read before we left, I chose the hotel based on location and price and it scored well on both counts. The twin room was airy and lovely and the staff were polite and helpful. The bar is currently being renovated... more

The hotel was fairly easy to find, a metro station being a couple of minutes away. My first impression was that it looked liked an unfinished Barbican Centre, situated in a dilapidated concrete jungle. Once you entered the reception area, the outside surroundings were forgotten. I agree with previous reviews, this is not a typical 4 * hotel, more a... more

I booked three nights in October at the Vila Gale in Oporto, as they had the cheapest rate compared to similar hotels during this time-frame. I fully agree with some other reviews that this hotel is not a 4-star. Summary: - the rooms definitely need an update. Furniture is old, the bathrooms were nice approx. 5-10 years ago. A/C/TV/Fridge worked... more

This is not a 4 star hotel. It is clean and acceptable but do not be fooled, if you have ever stayed in a 4 star hotel before this is absolutely no luxury experience. We stayed in much nicer less expensive hotels in portugal (for example the sofitel in Lisbon is beautiful). Although this hotel is clean and acceptable there... more
