Enjoyable stay at Vila Gale Opera Hotel

Vila Gale Opera Hotel if you have any Summit at Lisbon Congress Centre, convenient 4 min walk, close to downtown or take tram to downtown, excellent for day/evening walk/run along Tagus River. Delicious buffet breakfast/dinner, I highly recommend this hotel! I will stay there if I am ever back to Lisbon!

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Despite the fancy appearance of the entrance way, this is a basic hotel and ideal for business trips. The bedroom was clean and comfortable. Nonetheless the sound proofing is poor - I could hear the person next door using the toilet, and the curtains are not blackout. It's insulting to charge over £200 per night and be given one small complimentary bottle of water on arrival which is not replenished through the stay, and similarly to request a coffee machine for your room and pay and additional €1 per capsule. The breakfast has an excellent selection of hot and cold options. I would stay again - but only to return to a conference in the conveniently located congress centre, and only if work are paying.

A basic 'business' room, very conveniently located for the Lisboa Congress Centre (2-3 minute walk). The entrance lobby gives a sense of an exclusive, up market hotel - the rooms feel dated and are basic. They are however comfortable and clean. Rooms do not come with a coffee machine/kettle, but can be requested from reception - the insult is having to then pay €1 per coffee capsule (despite the room costing over €200). The aircon is ok, but not 'cold' and is rather noisy.

Wonderful stay at Lisbon

This is a really very good stay at Lisbon. The location is very convenient to visit Belem district with nearby tram connections. Several food options in the walking distance of the hotel. The hotel was very clean, the employees were very courteous. The breakfast buffet has a lot of options. All in all, it was a very pleasant experience!

We loved how the front desk staff allowed us to store our luggage and use their facilities, like the pool and sauna, long before the 3pm standard check-in. They also allowed us to have the continental breakfast at the restaurant and check in just after 12 noon.

Perfect for the Belem region

Nice hotel. Little noisy due to the closeby bridge (especially the train). Good to explore the region of Belem, less suited for the historical region (little public transportation options close by, good for your daily steps). There are some cool restaurants nearby. The breakfast is elaborate with healthy and less healthy options and the staff is friendly. There is always free water (plain or pimped) available at the lobby which is a nice plus. If you have a choice ask for a room on the top floor where you can enjoy a nice view over the river.
