“You can spend in the hotel 24 hours a day and feel like you've seen already the whole Ouro Preto”
There are two pousadas -- Do Douro and Pousada do Mondego, we booked both, but they are 2 parts of an antique complex, and we were staying in room 104 which has 5 balconies in 2 different directions! The breakfast is awesome, the huge antique table is full of cakes, fruits, juices, jams, and homemade yogurts (without sugar!) and the terrace (covered and partly uncovered) has a stunning view of the city and the churches. The Pousada has a vast private parking lot. We had a problem with a rented car, and all the greatly effective 3 languages speaking manager Kicila helped us to resolve it, to meet winch car, and to communicate with the rent-a-car company. Manager Claudia helped us to find important contacts inside of Ouro Preto on January 1st 7 am! They all were super effective. Next time we come to Ouro Preto we definitely stay here.
