What guests think

At Vila Gale Evora, travelers describe a convenient, walkable base just outside the city walls with attractive pools and useful amenities, a generally upbeat atmosphere, and comfortable modern rooms, balanced by some criticisms that temper otherwise positive impressions.

Service draws mixed feedback: many highlight friendly, helpful staff, while others describe slow, chaotic, or rigid experiences at reception, the bar, and the restaurant. Breakfast is frequently enjoyed, though several guests found it repetitive or limited, and dinner quality and value received multiple negative comments. Some travelers noted weak air conditioning in hot weather, fluctuating shower temperatures, occasional odors, and layout quirks. A practical choice for families and city explorers.

Boas as instalações , mas as piscinas externas deveriam ter temperatura mais agradável e uma maior disponibilidade de garçons na área da piscina . Em pleno verão hóspedes crianças e adultos reclamando da temperaturas das piscinas externas !!!

Positives- Easy walking distance from town center. Spacious lobby, nice looking pool comfortable bed able management Negatives- Hallways are humid and uncomfortable. Most likely due to indoor pool that is below the halls. Air Conditioning works but takes awhile to cool room, and bathroom does not get cool easily. Potential maintenance issues as daughter's room smelled of a sewer in the middle of the night. We wanted a refund, but could not as we booked through this 3rd party, so we will try to deal with them. Mgr was professional and did what she could, but we were left with a less than positive feel with the place.

Very nice hotel with plenty of amenities and just outside an entry to the walled city. Also near bus station and across the street from a gas station. Hotel includes a pool (pools actually) a spa, a workout area and a trainer. Good for families, couples or singles..great breakfast

The beds were really not comfortable, for everybody, whether it was the kids sleeping in the junior beds or us in the standard bed. It gets really hot in August in Evora and the AC couldn’t keep up. The parking is easy, even if not free.

Als Zwischenstopp gebucht - gehobenes Stadt-Hotel am Rande der Stadtmauer - hat aber mit seinen Poolanlagen (innen und aussen) sowie seinem Restaurant mehr zu bieten. Schöne Wandbilder die an die maurische Vergangenheit deuten. Evora selbst ist eine schöne historische Stadt die es sich lohnt zu besichtigen und eines der vielen netten Weinlokale oder Restaurants zu besuchen.

Traveling with friends thru Portugal and stayed here 1 night. Perfect location for walking to Evora walled city; free parking; comfortable beds and rooms; delicious breakfast included; enjoyed indoor pool/sauna/steam room area in the early evening. Left a Samsung tablet by mistake and the hotel staff went above and beyond to secure it; they offered to help get it shipped to home but we decided to return and pick it up instead. Would definitely recommend this hotel!!

We really enjoyed our stay here..The pool are was lovely.Had some lovely food at the pool bar..The rooms were very nice and spotless clean.Two gripes would be the room had no dressing table or mirror to apply make up and dry hair.The plug sockets were situated far from the long mirror so had to do it in all in the bathroom and it was very dark, and hot...Also I thought the breakfast was disappointing not much choice at all in the fruit selection or anything else to be honest.The first hotel Iv ever stayed in Portugal that didn’t have Nata tarts.But I still enjoyed my stay

Ikke bo her! Helt forferdelig service og kaos i resepsjon, bar og restaurant til enhver tid. Håndklær ble ikke byttet på rommet. Frokostbuffeen var fullstendig kaotisk. Det tok en times tid å få en drink i baren og tilsvarende å få regningen. Bærer preg av at de vil spare penger og at de ansatte mistrives.

Great staff, but food accomodation was lacking. We wanted to takeaway a dish that was only offered at the restaurant and not on the room service menu but they were very rigid about this. I had to sit down at the restaurant and order the dish and then immediately asked them to pack it for me. They gave me a hassle about this and I told them it was for my wife who was not feeling well and wanted to stay in the room. After talking to 3 different people, they finally allowed me to take the plate to the room.

O hotel é confortável, as instalações são novas e modernas. Contudo, o atendimento deixa muito a desejar, especialmente no restaurante e recepção. Os snacks no bar são bons, mas jantamos uma vez no restaurante e foi terrível, uma das piores refeições que fizemos ao longo da viagem (21 dias). Ressalto, contudo, a gentileza do sr. que nos atendeu a seguir, que parece ser o chefe da equipe no restaurante. Também destaco que o clube NEP não estava em funcionamento, embora conste em diversos pontos do hotel uma suposta programação. Para quem vai com crianças e cria essa expectativa, é mais uma frustração. Não voltaria.
