Loved by Vila Gale Opera guests
"Roof top plung pools were fantastic, just what you need after a long day sightseeing."
"The room was facing the 7 Pillar Bridge , and one does hear some noise, but this is more than compensated for by the stunning view of the Bridge ( during the day & lit at Night) and of the Statue of Christ the King, across the river Tagus. Truly beautiful."
"We loved how the front desk staff allowed us to store our luggage and use their facilities, like the pool and sauna, long before the 3pm standard check-in."

“I see a focus here on business and solo travelers, especially given the proximity to the Lisbon Congress Center; still, the live opera performances inject a dash of culture into any stay, alongside those indoor pools and health club facilities to unwind. For a conference or a personal city break, this seems a practical choice, though some may find the rooms needing an upgrade.”

decent choicebasic thingswindow noise
the breakfast was acceptable with a decent choice of items.
The room lacked basic things. There was no soap provided for hand washing! i also needed to request a kettle, and there wasn't a convenient outlet to plug it into. the noise from outside was awful. The windows did not block out noise from the bridge and planes.
