The best hotel in the world is on Brazilian soil. This is the Hotel Colline de France, from Gramado (RS), chosen by travelers from all over the world in the Tripadvisor Travelers' Choice Awards 2021. The ranking of the Tripadvisor website is based on the marks that guests give to establishments in categories such as location, cleanliness, service and cost-benefit. The hotel title was won after receiving a maximum score (5) in 1,565 reviews from travelers.

 

In a style and decor reminiscent of France, the hotel has 34 suites, which feature hand-carved furniture in an imperial style. Since 2018, the project has had a credit line from the General Tourism Fund (Fungetur) for works to improve the services provided to guests. During the health crisis, the hotel had R $ 2.7 million in funds for working capital. In all, R $ 6.7 million was invested through the Fund.

 

“This is an achievement of Brazilian tourism and an acknowledgment that the Ministry of Tourism is on the right path through actions that enable the development of our sector, as is the case with Fungetur. I'm sure that the resumption is closer than we think and that it will be great ”, commented the Minister of Tourism, Gilson Machado Neto.

 

“Without the support of the Ministry of Tourism, we would not be able to make this big and desired dream come true. The arduous path, from conception to the realization of the project and also during this resumption, was only possible through the assistance of the Ministry of Tourism ”, stressed one of the partner-owners, Jonas Tomazi. The hotel also has the Responsible Tourism Seal, which establishes biosafety protocols against Covid-19.
