The first room the gave us was under the restaurant and that made it very noisy. When we exposed this they gave us immediately another room.

Agus Argentina

Amazing location, walking distance to the principal tourist attractions in Petropolis. Very charming hotel with afternoon tea. Will definitely be coming back with my family.

Dadia United States of America

Beautiful neoclassical buildings, amazing location, delicious food, very friendly and attentive staff.

The location is perfect. We could go to all the main spots on foot. Perfect sauna na d indoor warm swimming pool. Afternoon tea and hot chocolate and muffins as a courstesy. Special beds, nice linen, excellent restaurant with a French chef. First class remodelled mansion. Friendly staff We just loved it

Nilza Brazil

Comfortable bed, and excellent food. Atmospheric colonial building. Just a few minutes walk from museums and shops.

Julian United States of America

Breakfast was great, a lot of variety and very good service when eating in the hotel restaurant. The place is really beautiful, spacious rooms, the service was great most of the time and the bed is really comfortable.

Anonymous Brazil

The breakfast was fantastic...I love having a choice of eggs :-)

Susan Canada

Great location for seeing the centre of Petropolis. Beautiful house and building. Good restaurant, nice breakfast (which we enjoyed having in the garden). The Wifi was good enough to work and keep teenagers happy. Definitely recommended.

Anders Norway

Wonderful breakfast, splendid room/suite in a recently renovated heritage building in Brazil's Imperial capital. The location couldn't be better, in a tree-lined avenue alongside some of Petropolis' most illustrious mansions, mostly 19th Century. Walking distance to most of the town's notable sites.

Tania Brazil

Wonderful experience in Colonial architecture design and atmosphere with warm staff that is eager to help
