A CHARMING BUILDING DATING BACK TO THE 19TH CENTURY

In the heart of the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Ouro Preto, stands the characterful Solar do Rosario hotel and guesthouse.

A charming building dating back to the 19th century, the hotel is perfect for those looking to explore the Baroque Portuguese architecture of the city.

After a complete renovation in 2008, the hotel now houses 41 guest rooms, each keeping the local character of the area.

There is a cosy restaurant which serves all meals, including afternoon tea. There is also an excellent wine cellar, a bar overlooking the Nossa Senhora do Rosário church, a heated pool, fitness room and a natural pool.

Guests can wander the cobbled streets of Ouro Preto, with its wealth of beautiful colonial architecture and many museums, art galleries and quaint shops. It is also possible to visit one of the nearby mines, which once made the area so rich during the gold-rush. For those keen on walking, the nearby Itacolomi State Park has a variety of trails and lots of diverse flora and fauna.

Its privileged location next to the Rosario Church and views of the S. Francisco de Paulo and Nossa Senhora do Rosario churches, makes Solar do Rosário an excellent place to stay when exploring Ouro Preto.

The itinerary was spot on. Claire really listened and understood the kind of holiday I wanted – from the hotels to the pace of the trip. The team on the ground were exceptional: friendly, efficient, and always one step ahead, helping with everything from flight check-ins to tax-free procedures at the end. The guides were knowledgeable and genuinely helpful. I had an amazing time. Thank you!

“TRIP TO THE TOP OF THE WORLD”

Everything about our trip was excellent. While it’s a considered investment, the service more than justifies the cost. We loved the accommodation – beautifully chosen and thoughtfully located. Our guides ranged from grear to truly exceptional. And the places we visited? They exceeded all expectations. Peru is an extraordinarily beautiful country, and this journey gave us a real sense of its wonder.
