Pousadas de Portugal has different hotel brands under its wings—Pestana Hotels & Resorts, Pestana Collection Hotels, CR7 Hotels, and Pousadas de Portugal. The striking thing about this hotel corporation is that they never started as a corporate hotel we typically know. They started off as a hotel chain built in restored historical buildings or at least next to them. The company clearly wanted to be one with the culture and traditions of Portugal, and that’s exactly what the tourists come there for so that was a great starting point for them. Portugal’s tourist economy skyrocketed within just a few years of it being known to the world. It used to be a cheap place to live but over the years, its value increased.

Along with that drastic shift, Pousadas de Portugal strived and continues to benefit from that tourism influx which primarily puts them up there. Their sub-brands and wide range of property portfolio is also a reflection of how far they have extended from the regular economy of Portugal up to when it just boomed like crazy. The hotel has a larger international client base now, too. The company keeps on expanding, reaching more underrated must-visit destinations in the country which many clients are looking forward to.
