During my stay at Vila Gale Opera, I was pleasantly surprised by the variety and quality of the buffet. The dinner options changed daily, ensuring a fresh and diverse dining experience. I particularly enjoyed the opera singers who performed at the bar, creating a delightful ambiance.
Although there were a few drawbacks, such as the room being difficult to cool down and the lack of ventilation in the bathroom, overall, I found Vila Gale Opera to be a good value for money. With its enjoyable dining options and attentive staff, I would recommend this hotel to others.

The breakfast offered a wide variety of options and was delicious. the staff was friendly and accommodating, and the room was clean and spacious. the hotel is conveniently located near public transportation and popular attractions, making it easy to explore the city. the hotel had modern amenities such as a fridge and a safe in the room.
Some aspects of the room cleanliness could be improved, as towels were not always replaced and there were instances of items left behind from previous guests. the neighborhood around the hotel felt a little unsafe at first, but after exploring a bit, we felt more comfortable.

The view from my room was breathtaking, overlooking the river. The service here was top-notch, with friendly and helpful staff.

I had a great stay at this hotel. The cleanliness was outstanding, and the hotel facilities were top-notch. The spacious garage was a bonus, and the breakfast overlooking the bay and bridge was simply delicious. The staff were always helpful and friendly. The hotel's location right next to the Tagus river was perfect, especially for someone attending a conference at the nearby venue.
Nothing all excellent.

The hotel's location is ideal for attending conferences at the nearby Congress Center. It is also convenient for low-budget travelers, as there are shops nearby where you can buy drinking water at affordable prices. the hotel is well-connected to public transportation, allowing you to explore the city easily. The proximity to the 25 April bridge offers great views for those who enjoy sightseeing.
There was an issue with the windows in some of the rooms, which allowed noise from the street and bridge to enter.

The breakfast was fantastic, with a great selection of hot dishes and a chef who made delicious eggs and pancakes. the hotel's location was also a plus, being conveniently located between the old town and Belem, with easy access to public transportation. Additionally, there were plenty of good restaurants in the nearby area to choose from.
One major downside was the noise from the nearby 25 April bridge, railway tracks, and airplane landing road. It created a constant background noise that could be bothersome, especially for light sleepers.

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The location was amazing, being situated under the main bridge in Lisbon. We loved being so close to the Tagus River and having the bridge right above us. The hotel offered excellent service, with room service available 24/7 and helpful staff who were always there to assist us with any requests. The room amenities were top-notch, with everything we needed for a comfortable stay, including ironing facilities, air conditioning, and a mini-bar. We also took advantage of the indoor swimming pool and spa facilities, which were perfect for relaxing and unwinding after a long day of exploring. The hotel's restaurant served delicious buffet breakfasts and the bar area was a great place to unwind in the evenings. we highly recommend this venue for a luxurious and comfortable stay.
This place is a must-visit for anyone looking for a luxurious and comfortable stay.

The hotel is conveniently located near a metro station, making it easy to explore the city. Additionally, it is right beside a main metro line, providing efficient transportation options.
The noise from the nearby railway track is extremely disruptive and makes it difficult to sleep.
