Excellent location just a couple of blocks away from the main town square and an easy walk to the bus station. The buildings, facilities and the room itself are all very well-restored and well-maintained, which definitely adds to the charm of the pousada and makes for a more relaxing place to come back to. Nice touch to have chocolate placed on your bed every day. There are many quaint seating areas located throughout the property for you to relax in. The staff are all very friendly and make you feel welcome - You really appreciate the personalised service they provide to help make your stay more pleasant. Thanks in particular to Kauã, Filipe and Alessandra at the front desk, who were all especially helpful. The breakfast service is also fantastic, giving you the option to have some food made to order. Even for the buffet side the food is of a high quality, including the homemade yoghurt, and something as typical as pineapple slices were elevated by adding lime zest on top. Overall, you may pay a bit more to stay here than many other places in town, but it's well spent.

We stayed three nights to celebrate our honeymoon. The staff made us feel special and welcome. We enjoyed the sauna and pool. We stayed in the master bedroom, which is spacious and private. It was great amenities such as a professional hairdryer, Nespresso coffee maker, and bathrobes. There were two smaller beds in the lower floor, which double as sofas. What stood out the most to us was the service. We had some leftover food we needed to heat up, and the staff kindly heated, plated, and brought it to our room. They took care of our laundry (for a reasonable fee), and booked us a taxi at the end of our stay. We felt very special and definitely worth the stay.

Not being able to stay longer

Great breakfast. Central but quiet location. The morning we checked out, we left our bags at the hotel to spend another day out on a boat in the bay. In the evening, when we got back to the hotel to claim our bags, the staff gave us towels and let us shower off by the pool, even though we had already checked out.

They didn’t clean our room on one of four days we were there, and it was a bit damp in the room pretty much the whole time (though, in fairness, we were there on some rainy days). The room was a bit small, which typically doesn’t bother me, but the way the doors (to the room, to the bathroom) and the shutters (to the courtyard, to the back of the building) opened was a but awkward: it was difficult to move around the room.

Everything about this place is perfect and totally worth the money. The staff was incredible and make our stay perfect from the beginning to the end. We arrived early morning (4am) and everyone was extremely helpful despite our inconvenient timing. The breakfasts are delicious (try sweet version of the local pancake called tapioca) and the localization of the place is perfect, just inside the historical part of the town. This was such an amazing and relaxing stay and we will recommend this place to everyone. If we will ever come back to Brazil, it will be to Paraty and Pousada do Ouro, it’s magical!

Everything was perfect

We had a lovely time at the Pousada do Ouro. Everything was great - the room, the location, the pool and everything else. The people could not have been more lovely and kind. A special thanks to Isabella and Filipe for their kindness and rescuing my backpack which I stupidly left in a cab. Also a special thanks to Junior for his friendship, explanations of the birds and of course the caipirinhas!

Amazing place to stay! Great location, in the old city of Paraty just a short stroll from the bay, the facilities are beautiful, surrounded by green and super well kept, very quiet, unless guests are not mindful, great breakfast options and amazing food, we also tried some of the food services outside breakfast and quality is top notch. We did use the sauna, which we advise to if you like it, and we did have a massage as well, Kyomi and Natache were our masseur's and I highly advise anyone to avail of their services, they were excellent. We did visit around, went on the schooner trip around the bay, booked by our hosts, but our main objective was to rest before our return home, and we fully achieved that. Finally, and most important for us was the staff, from Filipe in the reception, to Luis and Miriam, to the cleaning lady that always welcomed us with a smile (I am really sorry I never asked her name) and kept leaving dark chocolate in our bed, and everyone else I don't know the name, you do an amazing job in welcoming people to your facilities, and it makes all the difference! Thank you!

Lovely old historic 2 buildings, kept in original condition, Best trained staff we have met so far, Paraty great old unesco best breakfast had in brazil, Lovely room big bright comfortable , very private no noise (unusual for brazil) Lovely pool area Parking in difficult town

expensive but seem to get what you pay for get in brazil

Beautiful old building in a fascinating town. Excellent breakfast with many choices. Beautiful pool, public areas, antique furnishings. Excellent location for tourists.

Nothing the hotel could do about it, but the streets flooded at high tide. We were almost marooned in the hotel. Streets are roughly paved which makes walking difficult.

Romantic and charming historic hotel in old town Paraty. Decorated with attention to detail. We came as part of our honeymoon and loved the special card and chocolates given to us. We loved our stay and will most certainly come back. Obrigada do coração!!!

Everything was magnificent. The staff were wonderful, very helpful and very friendly. When we went out and got soaked they gave us towels in the reception area to dry off before reaching our room. We should have taken the umbrellas offered before we went out.

Everything was well above expectations.
