Great location and lovely views but not what I would classify as 4*. Some of the staff were exceptional and some exceptionally miserable and rude. The original rooms we were given were a ridiculous size for 3 people to stay in, but the manager was more than helpful at changing us once we had complained. The maids came every day... more

We stayed in the Vila Galé based off the reviews on tripadvisor and previous experience of Vila Galé in Cascais. We had a lovely time, the location is beautiful and the option to lie by the pool whilst being within a stones throw of the beach was great. The rooms were of average size. There were cleaned daily although the... more

We stayed here for a couple of nights and were pleasantly surprised with the hotel when we turned up. Only issue I had was checking in. I had booked this online whilst travelling I hadn't printed the reservation. They did not have our reservation on their system. I had to pay 5 Euro to log on to the hotel computer... more

My boyfriend and I (both 24) have just returned from a very pleasant week at the Vile Gale Hotel in Ericeira. The hotel is quite an attractive building and is quite a landmark within the small fishing village. We stayed in room 426 which had a seaview which was definitely worth paying a bit extra for - hearing the waves... more

I thought the hotel was ok. It was exactly as described, but some of the reviews had really thought that it was fantastic, I wouldn't have said that. Don't get me wrong, it is a good hotel, but for the cost I thought it was quite expensive for what you got. Our room wasn't very big and definitely nothing special.... more

This was our second stay at this hotel in the beautiful unspoilt village of Ericeira. As in my last review - sea view room was excellent, staff helpful and friendly, rooms spotless and food good. The breakfast buffet is amazing. My only gripe - and it's small - was that the maid did not clean the glasses in the bathroom.... more

The Vila Gale is impressive before you even reach the door. It's an imposing large hotel in a traditional Portuguese style with green tiled roof.As most of the previous reviews have said, the location and views are spectacular. It really is the diiference between a seaview and an ocean view.You can hear the waves and smell the sea air from... more

I booked this trough their website and I was not disappointed. The location is fab. We had a room on the 3rd floor with sea view and balcony, sunsets to die for. Staff very helpful and nice. Breakfast very good. The village is lovely and very portugese, lots of nice places to eat. Try the Barrossa Beef and Sea bass.... more

We stayed at this lovely hotel last month (August 07) and couldn't be happier. We were a total of three families, with 3 kids under the age of 6. The views from our room were simply breathtaking. The pictures on this website of this hotel truly do not do the location justice. Again, just absolutely breathtaking views. The hotel itself... more
