Up market Spain or Portugal hotel

You have no idea of actual location? No idea of facilities you require? We have no idea what you mean by up market. So just go to the likes of Booking, KAYAK, Priceline, HotelsCombined etc etc

Are you aware of
https://www.paradores-spain.com/
and
https://www.pousadas.pt/en/hotels

without the specific details, I would suggest looking into the Paradores (Spain) / Pousadas (Portugal) hotels, which you will almost always find in extraordinary locations (old monasteries, mansions etc.), with their high-level kitchens focusing on regional cuisine - and imo still not extraordinarily priced.

Another vote for the two hotel chains mentioned above

up market hotel or resort

From the above remark I get the feeling that some up market hotels could be to "stuffy"

Thanks for taking the time to reply. Location is anywhere in southern Spain or Portugal - end of May. Something with facilities better than better than a typical hostel or cheap hotel. Beach would be nice but not necessary. Do you have an experience you could share? If you can't think of anything that's ok. You don't need to reply. Thanks for the suggestions from other posters. I will try those links. I have checked the sites for the chains where I get brownie points - Marriott/Sheraton - Discover - Accor. And Trivago, Hotels.com, Trip Advisor, but there is too much information and its difficult to put real world interpretation on it. I was hoping for some suggestions based on a actual stays people particularly enjoyed and thought was worth the money that might inspire us.
