Hotels near Gala São Pedro, Figueira da Foz

I booked a group sales event. It was challenging bc I had to pre-pay for 1/2 of rooms with cash via a bank transfer. They would not accept credit cards. I asked what would happen if we had less attendees than I’d counted on. They told me not to worry, that I’d receive any reimbursement upon check out. I was owed over 1700 euro. I was NOT paid upon check out. Then I was told that I had to wait for the accounting team to return from holiday. I was not paid then. Then I was told I had to wait until the end of the month. I was also told if I had paid with a card that they would have already done it, (but they wouldn’t allow me to use a card!) As of today, I have not been paid. They also said that I needed to receive my reimbursement in a Portuguese account, despite accepting payment out of an American account. Luckily, I had one. Unluckily, they refused to accept my account info from the internet. So they made me drive to Coimbra to get bank credentials. (Then had another excuse not to pay me.) There have been big wildfires and I drove through one, trying to get to the bank. It was terrifying. It has been 3 weeks. At this point, my emails are not answered and it looks like I will have to sue. The accommodations are fine, but I would strongly recommend against using them for a big group, based on my experience. Waiting for people to return from their holiday to get paid money that is owed?? What??! I waited 3 weeks to write this review, to give them the benefit of the doubt. I’m very disappointed. Maybe this is just the way that people do business in Portugal? I don’t know know but it isn’t good. Seems very unprofessional to me. I will never book a big group with them again, nor with any other Ibis affiliate, based on this experience.

I cannot overstate how wonderful it was to stay at this charming hotel. The staff, in particular, were terrific. They went above and beyond in every conceivable way. The breakfast was gourmet, our small apartment was comfortable and clean, and since we were there for a full week, they even did our laundry for us as needed. One of my suitcases was so heavy that we couldn't carry it up the two flights to our apartment but they took care of that. One staff member even helped with the proof-reading and editing of a narrative I needed to deliver in Portuguese. For those who are not keen on huge hotels, this is a perfect choice.

Had a good stay here in a room with a great balcony and lovely view over the vast beach. The hotel is very modern, clean and comfortable. We were made welcome on arrival and despite being early quickly shown to our very nice room. The downstairs area of the hotel was very grand for a chain and offered a very comfortable lounge. The room was well appointed and we had a good nights sleep. The room was very quiet despite being on the front of the hotel. The breakfast, which our friends had, although extra was excellent with a lot of choice. Overall I would recommend this hotel as being very good value for money.

Welcome, everything very clean, staff very sympathetic, everything very good look.

What a hotel. Absolutely the best hotel that I have ever stayed in. Checked in on Saturday October 8 for 4 nights. Greeted at the desk by the super friendly clerk and the manager on duty. Walked into our fantastic room on the 8th floor with a wrap around balcony and glass from floor to ceiling providing a panoramic view of the beach and ocean. Added to that was a welcoming bottle of champagne. It felt so opulent and luxurious. The online pictures and reviews don't lie. The breakfast was fantastic. The hotel also provides a gym and a Turkish bath.

Good service, clean, comfortable bed and pillows Good environment, swimming pool, gym, reading room and other facilities are complete, breakfast is OK, the room is small.

I was in the hotel in May two nights, super careful staff and cleaning the rooms as well as the common area exceptional space, pleasant breakfast. I have to regret the indoor pool not working and no warning ⚠️ the guests were well as I requested the massage service I asked a relaxation and relaxation massage had nothing the space where the spa service was performed was cold and uncomfortable will be to say that I was frozen, I left the massage ... Relaxing was 0 to when the end of the massage in conversation with the massageist where I was told that the A/C was allegedly damaged!!! relaxing massage at the cold never ! The only thing I do not recommend in the QH Quiaios hotel is the spa (there's much better).
