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!

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.

Stay somewhere else!

The hotel has terrible pillows. Room service is not existent as no one ever picks up the phone! Same with reception - no one picks up the phone. The staff, specially at the bar are rude and the food was ok. Mini bar was never replenished. Will not recommend.

The staff were friendly, our room was not ready when we arrived two hours after check in time but was resolved in about 30 minutes. Paid underground parking is confusing as to how to pay when leaving. The beds were extremely hard and limited pillows. It was fine for one night as we wanted to be in the area and it was affordable but wouldn’t stay multiple nights.

Not allergy friendly.

The hotel was in good condition and the staff helpful however, if you have food allergies, or sensitivities be extremely careful of what you eat. Twice I was given food containing wheat after I told the staff that I have an allergy and showed them my eppi pen. I cannot recommend this hotel because of that.

I have no idea how this is 4 stars. We had to ask for the sheets to be changed as other peoples hair were still in the bed. Staff appear unable to organise taxi's so be ready with uber app. It is like a 1970's throw back in decor and not in a good way. No iron, no tea or coffee facilities. Very expensive and would avoid
