My spouse and I stayed here for 2 nights. In a place (Estoril) where there was absolutely nothing to visit for this hotel was very nice place to stay. Relaxing pool area over the 2nd floor roof, large beautiful rooms, excellent breakfast, excellent Brazilian BBQ restaurant nearby and hotel parking facilities. Also beach promenade and casino just around the corner.... more

I stayed at this hotel with my husband and friends. It is listed as a four star hotel but doesn't live up to this standard. The hotel is situated on a busy 4 lane road adjacent to the railway to Lisbon. The sea and acsino are close by. Estoril has little to offer apart from the splendid beaches and coastline.... more

My room on the last floor had a balcony overlooking the beach with stunning views. The uncovered swimming pool had plenty of space to enjoy the sunshine on its side, and the water was nice without any chlorine, although a bit cold. Breakfast was excellent with a wide variety of fresh fruit and cooked breakfast. Service in the restaurant was... more

We enjoyed a fantastic stay in Estoril in the Hotel Vila Gale. The hotel entrance is underwhelming but once inside it certainly is very welcoming with friendly hotel and bar staff. The room we stayed in was really big with a view out towards the sea. The bed was very comfortable and also very big, also could smoke in the... more

My stay was rather disappointing. I ended up in 4 different rooms: I was first given a room and went up to check in, only to find that the room was already occupied, with clothes and other personal items lying around. After some discussion with Reception (they did not believe me that the room was occupied), they checked it out... more

We stayed at the hotel with 2 friends and had a great stay. Nothing to complain about. The rooms were really big - cleaned every day. The hotel and bar staff were really helpful and friendly. We only had breakfast at the hotel - it was continental - I personally wasn't expecting much but it was great! You could have... more

Bad points: They had building works and it was very noisy, but presumably that's all finished now. Swimming pool tiny, upstairs, rather inaccessible and uninviting. No garden or anywhere to relax outside as poolside space cramped and only few chairs. We booked half-board and found the food better-than-just-edible but very boring. Good points: Good position - 2mins from beach with... more

We booked on the internet and were very disappointed with the room overlooking the parking lot. Room decor is very dated (1980'ish) and the carpet was dirty. In general, the hotel feels like it's past it's prime. The only thing new is the steak house, but it wasn't open on the night we were there (Monday). There were very little... more

This hotel is clean, quiet and very relaxing. Reception staff were very efficient. Bar staff very good and cheerful. I was particularly impressed with one young lady manager who was so pleasant and friendly. Room was nice if a little small - very welcome air conditioning but no balcony. Swimming pool also small with too few sunbeds - accessed by... more
