Walking distance to town yet secluded and picturesque location. Very attentive staff and hotel facilities excellent in almost all aspects. Car access is 'interesting'! with steep curved driveway. Gramado -Not often I recommend a visit to somewhere, but this place deserves a mention. Someone mysteriously transplanted an alpine town from Switzerland to one a half hours drive North of Porto Alegre in Brazil. (Two hours if you follow the signs!) Guess its most women’s idea of heaven. Chocolate shops, shoe shops, jewellery, shoe shops, exclusive house furnishing shops, shoe shops bag shops, shoe shops, clothes shops, shoe shops, restaurants, shoe shops, hotels and did I mention shoe shops? The Swiss style buildings against a forested backdrop and luckily for us all the Christmas decorations in situ made for a picturesque exceptional few days.
