"It was a beautiful location with awesome views and the grounds were beautiful though could have been more well maintained. We booked the room with the dome that opened but it wasn’t working and there was a leak in the sink. They tried to fix the roof but could not get it fixed during our stay. We paid full price but they tried to compensate by giving us free drinks. The staff was excellent but I will stay at another property next time we visit."

"The stay there was generally great. Good view from the accommodation, quiet and good breakfast. Service is nice, and efficient through WhatsApp. Only one issue is the last night of my stay there are termites. I know that they are not harmful, but the wings and worms dropped on my baggage. I don’t know if there are efficient and sustainable way to avoid this or not. Guess it might be a common issue living in old buildings. Overall, Ouro Preto is so nice, worth coming and living for some time."

Short 5 min walk from center, close to everything. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, and the views of the mountains were AMAZING. I did not want to leave in the morning, was just mesmerizing watching the view. The hotel staff barely spoke English but we got by with some Spanish and lots of sign language, and they were super helpful, even helped me get instructions on how to book my bus to Rio. I was in Ouro Preto during carnival, so was wild out but the pousada was a short walk away...

Really gorgeous place in an old building in the heart of the historic town. Just 5 minutes walk from the church of St Francis of Assisi, restaurants, shopping streets etc but tucked away on a quieter street. We had room 6, very pretty with two small balconies with full length windows overlooking the street. We loved standing on the balconies looking across the rooftops to the mountains. Very comfy bed. Can borrow a hairdryer from reception. Bring your own soap and toiletries. Nice towels,...

Grande Hotel de Ouro Preto

10/10 Excellent

Unbeatable location, great view, excellent food at the restaurant (I don’t usually eat at hotel restaurants, but I ate at this one four times during a three-night stay not counting breakfast). If you’re interested in architecture, Oscar Niemeyer designed this place (which was a delightful surprise that I didn’t remember seeing in the description), and they seemed to have maintained it in mostly its original design. It felt like being able to stay at the Paimio sanatorium by Alvar Aalto. Very...
