Loveholidays has released its 2026 list of Most Loved hotels based on more than 280,000 verified customer reviews from around the world including 43,000 from Irish holidaymakers who travelled over the past 12 months. Over 1,400 hotels from 45 destinations have been recognised a 35pc increase since last year and more than half at 55pc have retained their Most Loved status for the second year.
Leading the top 10 for Irish holidaymakers is Aquashow Park Hotel in Portugal with an almost perfect rating of 4.96 out of 5 followed closely by the Sahara Sunset Hotel in Spain and the Vienna House by Wyndham Andel’s Cracow in Poland. While plenty of five-star luxury hotels achieved Most Loved status more than a quarter at 25pc of hotels are rated three stars or below and the top 10 for Irish holidaymakers includes a selection of hotels rated two or three stars.
Commercial Director for Ireland at Loveholidays Clem Walshe reported the list belongs to customers with every hotel on it chosen by Irish holidaymakers who stayed there, had a brilliant time and wanted others to know about it. He reported it is great to see so many familiar names back on the list this year with more than half earning their spot for a second year running. He reported the list also proves that you do not need to splash out on five-star luxury to have a fantastic holiday.
Clem Walshe shared “This list belongs to our customers. Every hotel on it has been chosen by Irish holidaymakers who stayed there, had a brilliant time and wanted others to know about it.”
