Top tips for finding the perfect Portugal hotel
Like most popular tourist destinations, Portugal has a huge range of hotels to choose from. Aside from selecting the location, hotels come in star ratings implemented by the National Tourist Board, that range from 1 to 5 stars. While more stars means a more luxurious hotel, the differences between 4 and 5 star hotels aren’t always noticeable. Usually it comes down to a wider range of services, a concierge service, and a 24-hour front office.
