Pros:

The hotel itself is so gorgeous, with a beautiful pool that you just need to dip into! The breakfast was extraordinary too, by far the best I had in Brasil. Location is excellent in the center of Rio, though be warned that it is still about an hour to the beach.

Cons:

I think the room could have been slightly cleaner.

Perfeito!
Pros:

Estadia incrível! Quarto excelente, confortável, com edredom limpinho e aconchegante. Banheiro com água quente e fria funcionando perfeitamente, além de ar-condicionado no quarto.

O café da manhã é simplesmente maravilhoso, com muitas opções: tapioca feita na hora pelo cozinheiro, pão de queijo saindo quentinho… tudo muito bem servido!

O serviço de quarto também surpreendeu — pedimos jantar e estava perfeito. E ainda tem lanches disponíveis 24 horas por dia!

Experiência impecável do começo ao fim!

Cons:

Amei tudo!!!

Geweldig Hotel!! Voor mij 5 sterren!
Pros:

Geweldig mooi Hotel! Met heerlijk mooi zwembad, en geweldig ontbijt!
Ik had een kamer naast zwembad op de begane grond. Grote mooie kamer ook!
Echt mijn meest favoriete Hotel tot nu toe! Ben al in zoveel hotels geweest, maar jammer dat het zover weg is van Amsterdam anders zou ik er zeker vaker naartoe gaan !
Het Hotel ligt op loopafstand van de highlights. Maar buurt is erg vervallen, toch stoorde dat niet.
Ik heb in Vila Galé een geweldige tijd gehad, en zal er vaak aan terugdenken!!

Cons:

Eigenlijk echt NIETS wat niet beviel!! Echt heerlijk mooi Hotel!

Foi tudo além do esperado!
Pros:

Tudo impecável, capricho em cada detalhe. Conforto do quarto, roupa de cama, limpeza e cuidado com as áreas comuns.

Cons:

A localização do hotel é ruim. Não é um local para se andar a pé ou pelas redondezas.
