A Portuguese hotel industry saw a 3% average price increase in summer 2026, reaching 171 euros per occupied room, while autumn reservations are expected to decline. The AHP report highlights regional disparities, with the Algarseting higher absolute revenue and the Alentejo showing the strongest RevPAR growth. Key uncertainty remains regarding the final autumn quarter and the impact of geopolitical instability on future bookings.

Key points

• Summer 2026 average room rate rose 3% to 171 euros, while autumn reservations are expected to decline.
• The Algarve maintained the highest absolute ARR at 226 euros, while the Alentejo saw the strongest RevPAR growth at 7%.

Context

The findings come from the AHP's 'Summer & Autumn 2026' survey covering 403 hotels. Regional differences are significant, with the Algarve and Madeira outperforming the national average, while the Alentejo and Lisbon region faced simultaneous occupancy and rate declines.

Limitations

The survey covers only 403 hotels between September and October 2026. Autumn 2026 reservations are projected, not confirmed. Future revenue forecasts remain uncertain due to ongoing geopolitical instability and rising operational costs.
