Loved by Vila Gale Opera guests
"The hotel entrance is very impressive with opera themed art and costumes adorning the walls with a grand piano and pool table in the lobby."
"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."
"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."

solid stay near the congress center

the breakfast was varied and quite good. the location suited my needs because it was a short walk to the congress center. the front desk staff assisted with securing taxis quickly. i appreciated their knowledge of the area.
The hotel lacked some expected amenities for the price. There was no iron available in the room. i found this inconvenient as i needed to iron clothes for the conference. the absence of a simple iron caused a bit of a morning scramble.

the breakfast was acceptable with a good variety of options (especially the fruit).
The noise was significant. Trains and cars ran day and night due to the proximity to the bridge. the air conditioning did not get cold enough, and the windows were locked, so the room became stuffy. i found the plastic mattress protector unpleasant.
