Charming place, that immerges you into nature. The staff is friendly and arranging, the food is good, and the view is of an other world. I would live there if I could. Many thanks to the whole team, and especially the chef who has cooked some amazing vegan dinners and breakfats

The location is very handy for the old town which is only 10 minutes walk away . You are also close to the bars and restaurants in the new town but down a quiet lane away from the crowds and noise of the main street. The grounds of the hotel are pretty, full of wildlife, flowers and art work. The rooms tidy and a decent size perfect for the first stop after a trans Atlantic flight and the 4hr transfer from Rio. We arrived by a private cab that could access the back lanes but remember that if you are getting here by bus and have to walk the last 100 meters from the high street the road is cobbled and will kill any wheeled cases that you are trying to lug from bus stop to hotel. Best arrive by private transfer from the airport The breakfast room is great with a wide selection of good foods on offer. Keep going back as often as you want , they wont rush you to leave so enjoy the river view. However the same can not be said for the evening meals. these are poorly cooked with tough meat , and under cooked meat. The bar also had a very a disappointing selection of canned beers imported from Europe. Nothing Brazilian was available to drink apart from very over priced Cachaça Forget using the sauna , it was out of use but then you have the old town on your doorstep why bother staying in a sauna?

We enjoyed our stay at Magnu's Pousada. Rooms clean, breakfast very good and staff very friendly. The posada is very close to all attractions and in a safe area. I want to commend them for how they handled my lost items. I left my bankcard and phone card in the room safe. When I emailed the staff they found the items in the safe, and mailed them off to friends of mine in Sao Paulo. Many thanks for your honesty.

We stayed at the hotel for 3 nights, good beds and friendly staff! Especially the barman Thomas, was really great with his service. Although a few cocktails I ordered were not on the menu, he made them anyway, with a big smile. Good job Thomas, really enjoyed your rum sour! Ruben Dries

Velejador Hotel & Pousada has over 20 years of history in the city of Paraty, every detail is meticulously handled to ensure our guests the best service, privacy and comfort. As if they were in their own home. Besides, of course, the best value for money. Our outdoor area features a charming outdoor pool and lushly landscaped garden that project the best look for contemplation, rest or work. Our non-smoking, colonial-style rooms with wood accents come with a private bathroom, ceiling fan, minibar, air conditioning and cable TV. Superior rooms also have a delightful private balcony overlooking the garden and pool. We also provide bed linen, towels and blankets. A delicious and complete breakfast is included and is served in our lounge, from 8 to 10am with various breads, cakes, pastries, fruits, hot and cold drinks. Our staff is bilingual and the reception is open 24 hours. We have free private parking. The Hotel is located less than 400 meters from the historical center of Paraty, one of the most charming tourist cities in Brazil, with atmosphere, architecture and unique details. It is a great choice for travelers interested in walking, culture, food, crafts and history. Paraty Bus Station is 220 meters away, less than 2 blocks from the Hotel. With access through the historic center, Cais de Paraty has exits for all tastes, from private boats to schooners. Nearby, with the possibility to make the journey by car and even walking, we have the Pontal Beach and Jabaquara Beach. Niche with great rise in the city are also adventure activities, with multi-level trails.
On a whim, we decided to take a last minute trip to Paraty, a small historic city, about 250 km (400 miles, give or take) from Rio de Janeiro. Since it was an extended weekend, due to a holiday on monday, there were very few hotel choices available. Now Paraty has some specificities a traveller should know about. Since the main tourist site is the old town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, most of the hotels located inside the protected area do not accept cars, since they are not allowed on the site. Also, there are some BBs and resorts situated a few kilometers from the town, which makes visiting the historic sites kind of bothersome, if you do not chose to take a cab or the hotel does not offer a shuttle to the city, since it means driving to the city and looking for a parking space. That said, we picked the Velejador Hotel, even after reading a few very negative posts, and do not regret it. Bad things first. It is close to the local airport and the bus depot. However, the air traffic, at least during our stay, consisted of small and medium planes and helicopters, no jets, with a few take offs and landings spread out during the day. The bus depot is about a half a block away, but it seemed very tranquil, with no noises reaching the hotel. Also, there are lots of mosquitoes - remember, the city is next to the forest - so keep your doors and windows closed. Now the good things. It is about a 5-10 minute walk to the tourist attractions and it has its own parking lot. Which means you do not really need to use your car during your stay and you can enjoy your stay knowing that your car is safe. The rooms are clean, but not luxurious. We stayed three in a small, but confortable room, with a small balcony. We had a full bed (a little smaller than a queen) and a single bed. The room was equipped with a mini fridge, air conditioning, cable (no premium channels) and free wifi. Each room has its own bathroom with a shower. Now, if you have never been to Brazil, or only stayed in the larger cities, you will not be familiar with a very common contraption known as an eletric shower, which heats the water that goes out of it with a hot element (like a toaster). Unless you turn it on, the shower will run cold. It is weird, but it is supposedly safe, since there are very few, if any, reported cases of people being eletrocuted in Brazil while showering. So they do have hot showers. The have a pool. The breakfast was only served from 8 AM until 10 AM, and it consisted of coffee, milk, tea, two kinds of breads, one kind of cake, two kinds of fruit, three kinds of natural fruit juices, ham, cheese, jam, butter and honey. I believe they serve eggs and sausages sometimes, but not while I was there. The staff is very nice, they complied with the requests we made when we booked the hotel regarding the beds and, when faced with a very weird problem with the wifi (the Apple products wouldn't recognize the network, while the other systems would), they spared no effort to fix it, which they did. Also, they can help you set up boat rides and trips to the nearby islands and beaches. All that and not very expensive, considering the prices some places were charging.

Positives - Not far from bus station and old town. Paraty is probably worth seeing/experiencing (just stay somewhere else). Negatives 1) Cold welcome (and no English spoken, but that was not the problem). 2) Massive hole in roof of corridor outside room. 3) Bathroom not clean. 4) Room full of mosquitos - a killing spree yielded ok results (perhaps 20?) but they seemed to breed in the room with tens more appearing every few hours. 5) Terrible internet. 6) Poor breakfast. 7) Insanely bad value for money (76 Euro per night). All of this awaits you if you decide to stay at Pousada Konquista. We also had the added treat of staying on the same two nights as about 20 unsupervised teenagers who turned the pousada into a school camp with screaming, yelling, running and banging from mid-afternoon until after 1am.

We loved this hotel. The layout is like a series of bungalows, there are even hammocks in some of the rooms. The rooms are simple, but clean and well maintained. The location is also great, right on the canal and within a few minutes walk of the downtown restaurant and shopping areas. The breakfast was very good and we had no issues of any kind during our stay.
