Our take
Vila Gale Coimbra is a four-star overlooking the Mondego River, with warmly decorated, air-conditioned rooms, some with river views, indoor and outdoor pools, a spa with a range of treatments and a breakfast buffet. An 8.5 rating across more than 3,700 reviews reflects consistent quality. Travellers who want to sleep in the university's old quarter should look uphill, but for pools and a riverside setting, I recommend it.
- Consider booking a room with river views for a more scenic experience.
- Explore the spa's varied menu of treatments for a truly relaxing afternoon.
- Take advantage of both the indoor and outdoor pools, depending on the weather.
