Hotels to look out for in 2012

We’ve been going for some 11 years and have seen some weird, way out and wonderful (plus not so wonderful) places to stay in our time.

Here is our, by no means exhaustive, pick of some of our favourite hot hotels to look out for in 2012, starting off with Portugal. We think you’ll love them:

Kids can come too (Family Friendly Hotels)

Taking the kids need not be a hassle, especially with places like these:

Casas do Sal, Alentejo

Aldeia da Pedralva, Agarve

Memmo Baleeira, Algarve

Low Cost (On a Budget)

Should good taste and individuality only be available to the wealthy and privileged? No!:

Casa Costa do Castelo, Lisbon

Quinta de São Vicente, Minho

Tapada do Gramacho, Algarve

Boutique Heaven (Style Conscious Accommodations)

Great design at great prices:

Choupana Hills, Madeira

Jeronimos 8, Lisbon

Vilacampina, Algarve

Luxury comes as standard (High End Hotels)

If you want to splash out a little, have a look at this:

Areias do Seixo, Lisbon Coast

Hotel Bairro Alto, Lisbon

Martinhal Beach Resort, Algarve

Beach Bums (Seaside Hotels)

We do like to be by the seaside especially when the seaside takes in these three gems:

Farol design Hotel, Cascais

Martinhal Beach Resort, Algarve

Club Porto Mos, Algarve

Living in the past (Historic hotels)

The past is still definitely what it used to be:

Pousada de Santa Marinha, Guimarães

Palace Hotel do Bussaco, Lisbon Coast

Solar do Castelo, Lisbon

Away from it all (Secluded Hotels)

You want to be alone? Then may we suggest…:

Casa da Ermida de Santa Catarina, Alentejo

Azenha do Corvo, Sintra

Refugio da Praia, Alentejo
