Hotel Minho

Geometric forms hug the landscape with the kind of restraint that has everyone reaching for Japanese comparisons, though the rooms quietly subvert the minimalist promise with actual art on the walls and, in the suites, individual artists, from Dalí to Warhol, as the guiding theme. This boutique resort in the Alto Minho carries a full spa, a restaurant leaning into regional cooking, and a wine bar stocked deep with vinhos verdes. The River Minho and Galicia are both within easy reach.
