Vila Gale Collection Braga Hotel

Vila Gale Collection Braga Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"This is a beautiful hotel. It looks like a castle, but is in fact the restoration of a very old hospital.many of the original elements have been kept. There are interesting little rooms to explore as you wander through the hotel. It is very spacious. This can lead to a few issues finding your way around, but that was a minor inconvenience. The restaurant served delicious meals and the breakfasts were excellent. The hotel is centrally located and I would certainly go back on my next trip to a Braga."

"All the staff, without fail, were absolutely lovely. The property was spotlessly clean and the location was perfect (within easy walking distance of all attractions). It was one of the nicest small hotels I have stayed in, anywhere in the world. We were on holiday to celebrate a major anniversary and the staff gave us a charming surprise. I would totally recommend the hotel."
