The room was a reasonable size, clean and comfortable. Location is very good. Breakfast was OK. It was the usual buffet a reasonable selection of options. The staff were not great at keeping everything stocked and had to be advised when things ran out. The general ambience of the dining room was poor- a big room with rows of tables. No plants, no soft furnishings, not very relaxing.

Just misses the mark by alot
Rooms very dated. No USB charging. Reception explained the charges were all out and explained that I would have to purchase from a shop, that was closed. Pool table was super expensive for a guest. Towel process felt like I was treated like a criminal. Given I was told this was one of the best places in Tavira, i was not pleasantly surprised.

Impressive building, large foyer and reception area. Comfortable bedroom although poor bedside lighting. Breakfast restaurant could do with better ventilation. Self service breakfast content was adequate but room for improvement.

We have been visiting Tavira for many years and have always stayed at Hotel Vila Gale. The hotel is extremely convenient to the centre. A great little cafe over the road and lovely local supermarkets nearby. The hotel is clean the breakfast plentiful and the staff very attentive.

Tavira is a very quiet area of the Algarve. This hotel is very convenient to the riverside and catching the quick ferry to the pretty island beaches. The hotel is between a 3.5 - 4 star, I’d say. They don’t have any staff to help w/your luggage. The ample buffet breakfast was nice!

It was a nice hotel although March when we stayed so the pool wasn't open. Rooms were clean. Depending on which person at the desk you talk to, some were helpful. If I go back I would probably stay again.
