Vila Gale Hotels in Beira from NZ$221

"Great staff. Lovely pool. Great views over river "

"All the hotel staff, and especially Helena, were friendly and helpful. The rooms are uniquely decorated in a cool and unique ‘marble library’ motif. The shower works great and the bed is comfortable. The location is convenient to the university and the rail station. One critique: the water closet is in a separate room (good) but the door and wall are clear glass, floor to ceiling (not good unless you’re an exhibitionist). "

"Very helpful staff! Thanks a lot for umbrella and taxi in this raining morning! :)"

"Stunningly beautiful hotel and grounds. View or river from second floor was exceptional. Very nice staff."

"Centrally located, nice breakfast, Leandro and Jessica? were both prompt and helpful with checkin/out and breakfast."

"Such a lovely property. Very clean and accessible. Location was pretty much in the hub of activity and was very close to most of the attractions we visited. Staff was kind and very helpful. If I come back to Coimbra, I would absolutely come back here to stay! "

"I cannot say enough positive things about this hotel. At check-in, I was thoughtfully greeted and allowed to retreat to my room well over 3 hours early. Reception encouraged me to get some rest when I mentioned I was quite tired, and that they’d be happy to give me a tour once rested if this was my preference. This considerate gesture was just one of MANY positive experiences with this lovely staff. From an interior design standpoint, I found the hotel well curated with special details like beautiful dinnerware from Costa Nova and materials that reflected the natural environment. Everything felt quite serene. Even the thought to plant rosemary in the gardens added a special touch; When out by the pool in the afternoon sun it smelled only of herbs and the effect was just so unique given the wine and the vineyards that surround the hotel. The food, too, was excellent. From Caesar salads with quail eggs, as an example, everything had just a little something extra. The breakfast buffet also had expansive offerings including local, hand-made pastries. And with respect to the facilities, I wanted for nothing and enjoyed the spa and pool very much, including the fact that the spa had “children free” hours for those of us looking for those relaxing quiet hours. I can’t wait to return with friends. There was so much more to do and see and my short weekend trip was not nearly sufficient. Further, it was so easy to get to! Obrigada!"

"Junior and Rachel and the rest of the staff were amazing, so kind and attentive. Truly a 5 star hotel and spa"

"A contemporary, newly built hotel that does indeed give California beach vibes. The hotel is tastefully decorated and has a wonderful spacious pool area. Make sure to get a room with a terrace, though note ground floor rooms will have no view as they’re blocked by a wall of shrubs. Breakfast is decent, lots of fresh fruit and juices. Seems a family focused hotel, lots of strollers and small kids!"
