Room was cleaned every day. The room was a bit dated but the bed was very comfortable and there was a nice big tv. Staff were all very nice.Notjing was to much bother for them. Breakfast was the usual choices but more than adequate. The hotel location is perfect. A shopping centre about 150 meters away. Plenty of restaurants around the area. Its a nice downhill walk to the old Town and a 20 minute walk in the opposite direction to the strip. The tourist train stops right out side the hotel. Its 6 euros to use it all day. It will take you to both the strip and very close to the Old Town. The location of this hotel couldn't be any better.

Stayed here for 6 days including New Year’s Eve 2025. On arrival my first impressions were wow what a beautiful hotel. The staff on reception were extremely friendly and polite, the hotel surroundings looked really classy.
Wasn’t too happy with my room, everything in the room was too a good standard but there was this awful humming noise coming from a fan or humidity machine directly under my room. I went to reception and told them I wasn’t happy. Absolutely no problem they said, and changed my room to a much quieter location. Excellent result.
On arrival to my first breakfast sitting is when the whole experience started to unfold.
Bear with me!!
No seating available (had to wait in the queue) okay I thought no problem, it’s happened on many occasions before at other hotels.
Now it all started to go pear shaped.
I was offered a table outside, it’s December, it was cold. So no was the answer to that.
No hygiene stations.
People picking food up and putting it back.
No uncut bread, buns or rolls available, arriving a small amounts, the swooped on.
Jams and butter no where near the bread counter, so caused huge crowds bumping into each other trying to find some.
Chairs broken and wobbly.
Food on the counter tops.
Food on the floor (waiters just walked over)
No salt and pepper on the tables, had to go looking and located near the omelette making area, which caused even further chaos.
It’s an absolute zoo, in fact that’s not true. A zoo is a much better organised place.
The restaurant is a shambles at breakfast time. Far too many people for such a small eating area. I understand that during the summer months, they can provide outside eating areas, but during the winter months (especially for new year celebrations) it needs to be organised better)
So sorry Villa Galé you need to improve on this side of your hospitality.

Nice stay here, November off season. Staff very friendly and helpful. The bar area is a nice setting - lots of wooden construct! Managed to use the indoor pool, sauna and jacuzzi. Slightly dated, so 4 stars, otherwise no complaints. Good location and parking space as well!

Ideally situated for a short walk into the main tourist area, or take the land train which stops outside. For those needing fast food, McDonalds and KFC are across the road. The rooms and hotel is spotless, the food is out of this world for choice and quality. The staff...what can I say except they really make the whole stay so enjoyable with there friendly approach and helpfulness. This is our 2nd time staying here and recommend it highly.

My husband and I just spent 5 nights here while in Albufeira for a wedding. The hotel is in a great location, the staff were friendly and helpful. The pool was great, never any issue getting a sun lounger. The breakfast was good quality and lots of options. The beds were comfortable and the rooms were clean and functional. We hope to return again with our kids we had such a good experience.
