We currently have 19 amazing hotels in Portugal in our JO&SO collection (tried & tested by us) and an additional 45 hotels on our Watchlist. A number of which we have already visited, we will be bringing you the full reports in the new year.
We tend to know more or less which are the hotels that we want to visit next, however it doesn’t depend only on the hotel itself but also on the region. In 2019 we want to bring you more hotels from mainland Portugal as well as our amazing islands: Madeira and Azores.
So here are the top 10 hotels in Portugal that we are very much looking forward to visiting next, in no specific order:
