Hilton Hotels & Resorts is about to triple its popularity Tourism in Portugal with the announcement of three new hotels soon to the trendy travel destination.
Let’s take a look at the three different Hilton brands that will be adding to the Portuguese family in 2025 and 2026.
Double Tree by Hilton Lisbon Airport
Airport hotels are very popular with travelers because they are a convenient place to stay the first night after arriving in the country or even strategically positioned near the airport for an early morning flight.
This new Double Tree by Hilton will be conveniently located near Lisbon Airport, offering travelers easy access to Lisbon Airport.
The hotel is being designed to cater to both leisure and business guests. It will have a restaurant, bar, breakfast room and ample meeting space for conferences and events.

The Santo André Beach Hotel, Tapestry Collection by Hilton will also open in Portugal next year.
It will be Hilton’s first hotel complex in the Santiago do Cacém region, located along the Atlantic coast south of Lisbon.
This boutique oceanfront hotel is created as an escape to Portugal’s authentic coastline.
It will have just 44 rooms, for a small resort style, a restaurant and bar, a gym and a rooftop pool with awe-inspiring views of the Atlantic Ocean.
Canopy of Hilton Vilamoura Marina
Hilton’s relatively new Canopy brand is introducing a new hotel in Portugal that will open in 2026.
It will be located on the Algarve coast, west of Faro, in the town of Vilamoura.
The marina is one of the largest in the entire country of Portugal and the area is known for great restaurants and even nearby resort-style golf courses.
