빌라 갈레 도우로(Vila Gale Collection Douro)

Extensive work being carried out meant noise throughout the hotel. Every time we needed reception we had to wait for staff to return. On the plus side, the restaurant staff were excellent.

Spacious room overlooking the Douro River. No air conditioning the night we stayed because they said it was cold and raining and only the heat is available. The receptionist at check in was not very friendly or accommodating. She acted like it was a lot of trouble for her to arrange a wine tasting tour for us. The restaurant was deafening loud during dinner because there were a couple of tour groups. I would not recommend shrimp risotto.

The carpet was musty and in Sun evening we saw 3 couples who were also guests turned away for dinner " bc no reservations" but it was not full or over booked. Front desk recommended a terrible boat ride to another town and we saw several nicer boats docked when we boarded ours.

Good dinner and breakfast. Nice pool. Swimming cap is mandatory. Big room.

Lovely property, nice people, perfect location. So, what's wrong? A bathroom with a picture window to the room, zero privacy, uncomfortable at best. And no way to mitigate. Fine for some people, but beware if you are not among them.

Very nice hotel by Douro tiver. Excelente staff. Good food. Nice view. Good and comfortable room with a nice view of Régua, through a nice varanda. Inside warmth and outside pools, and SPA. Restaurante staff quite professional and kind. Very good meals

Excellent hotel in an excellent location, large rooms and welcoming staff

There is nothing special or distinctive about this hotel which is part of larger corporate chain. This specific hotel lacks charm, with rooms furnished in corporate fashion. In our room carpets were stained and all lights did not work correctly. Staff was friendly but not overly helpful. Gym was adequately equipped. Parking on the street (road next to the hotel) was adequate.

The lovely Vila Gale Douro hotel was located by the river Douro. The rooms were spacious and very comfortable. Unusually the entrance floor is floor 4, with the numbering of all the lower floors going down.The salmon dinner we ate there was excellent
