the hotel can not be faulted in any way. we found the staff very helpful and pleasant, clean rooms, and food plentiful. would not hesitate in going back to them. the fault lies with the scratch card dealers who can make holiday folk unhappy by thier pestering. that... more

Most of the rooms in this hotel seem to face north; unfortunately we like to sit in the sun on our balcony. We also paid extra for a sea view, what we got was more of a sea glimpse. At present the roads adjacent to the hotel are dug up to make them semi-pedestrianised, the... more

I have read some reviews on this hotel and think that I must have been staying in a different world! This place was superb! The food was fantastic. If you cannot find something to eat at night then you must have strange eatimh habits. If you can afford it, then get the... more

Before going to the Gala, I had read some reviews that stated their food was not too good and other 'bad' points. However, the hotel looked nice in the pictures and was a good price, so we (my boyfriend and I), decided to go for it. We were pleasantly surprised: the Gala... more

My teenage daughter and I went to The Gala hotel, Playa de las Americas out of season before the explosive nightlife began in the summer months. We were 20 minutes walking distance, along pedestrianised lit walkways between the smart shops and hotels of smart Cristianos... more

Not recommended
We chose this hotel because of generally positive comments but this hotel can't be recommended for most British visitors.The problems were: The food - you had the feeling they tried but many of the dishes were strange (e.g. chicken in a rich chocolate sauce) or not kept hot. The rooms - most of them seem to face north and although we paid extra for a sea view you really needed to be a giraffe. Try asking for a pool view instead, this should give a better view of the sea as well. The clientel - nothing wrong with our... more

Brill Time at GAla
We arrived at the Gala Hotel by Taxi and found a spotlessly clean reception area. We checked in and the concierge recommended we head straight to dinner as the restaurant was closing soon, we were meant to be there earlier but the flight had been delayed. This was good service from the reception staff as soon as we arrived and to be honest this level of service was maintained. Room: Our room was spacious and consisted of 2 single beds and a fold bed for our son. The bathroom was spacious to with plenty of toiletries, large bath, bide... more
Great value and a great holiday
I have read some reviews on this hotel and think that I must have been staying in a different world !! This place was superb !! The food was fantastic.If you cannot find something to eat at night then you must be bulimic!! If you can afford it ,then get the twin superior rooms.Included in this package is a free mini bar ,bath robes,sea and pool view (the cheaper rooms seem to face a wall), and free pool towel and sunbed pads . Evening entertainment is the usual nonsense,but then after you have had dinner it was nice to take a walk .All... more
Average/good
We were 4 girls in our mid 40s and we were amongst the youngest people there! Very few English there. Mainly German. Were initially disappointed with the room as we had paid extra for a sea view (just about!) we asked to move rooms but staff were most unhelpful and after much badgering did offer us another one which over looked the pool area! We stayed put. Yes you do have to pay extra for fridge, safe and for towels and mattresses for the sunbeds! Never heard of that one in a hotel before. Food was good I thought but I agree with... more
Definitley not 4 star.............!!
We (a group of 13) stayed at the gala, nice hotel, good location and excellent wheelchair access but the food was not 4 star stantard and we found the staff sometimes rude and unhelpful but the cleaning staff and pool attentant where very nice. Sun loungers where scarce even though it was not high season and food was very repeatative. But just to the left of the hotel literally 2 minutes was an Irish bar called Christy O'Connor's which had the best live band we had ever heard called Murphy's Mis Fitz the staff where very friendly and... more
Spot on!
This is a great hotel right amonst all the bars and nightlife. The restaurant is buffet style and plenty of choice for everyone, we have had better, but still its good enough and we will go back. The rooms are quite large with excellent bathroom and nice balcony, we opted for a seaview and were pleased we did. The noise is not a problem due to double balcony doors, at least in the seaview rooms, the bars and nightlife go on till 4.30am but never bothered us at all. There were not many Brits in the Hotel, lots of Germans and Italians and... more
Best Ever
The hotel gala is one place i would always go back to as this was my 12th time there i really enjoyed it there is very pleasent staff,enjoyable food and loads more as you may have to pay for quite alot of stuff i think it is worth it. The wheather was great but on some days it was a bit windy and one thing to enjoy even more is that every night at around eight there is show they are always magnificent. I hoipe every one else who has travelled there has had the same experince as me! more
What do you want from a holiday hotel
We are simply baffled by some of the negative comments about Hotel Gala hotel and wonder if the writers were staying at the same hotel . My wife and I spent a week at Hotel Gala (23 March - 30 March 2006)and it was great. I have spent 25+ years travelling on busines throughout Europe staying at 4 and 5 star hotels and I can assure you that I have never stayed in a friendler cleaner hotel than the Gala and what's more it's about half the price of most north European hotels. Sure the Gala doesn't have an a la carte restaurant or but... more
Pretty Average
The hotel was spacious and modern, with numerous bars. Entertainment was pretty poor (local jugglers and musical chairs)which for some reason the Italian/German guests seemed to enjoy.The staff were friendly and helpful. The food was served buffet style and after about the third day craved for some decent grub as all very bland and samey. One had to pay extra for the safe deposit box, mattresses and towels for the pool and the gym was full of old tired kit.The hotel shop was well stocked and a supermarket right next door ( so... more
