The staff was very attentive and courteous. The property is very well maintained and the vegetation is magnificent. There is a huge focus on environmental conservation. The hotel is located in the heart of the old town within walking minutes of all the restaurants, boutiques, the port and other places of interest. During our stay the restaurant was closed for renovation and some other repair activities was ongoing. The noise was at time bothersome.

This is a very special pousada! It's a lovely oasis in a lively and fascinating old town. Literaria is extremely conveniently located, spanning a car-accessible street on one end and the old, now-pedestrian centre of town on the other. The staff are extremely accommodating, and a special shout-out to the front-desk team, who were absolutely awesome. The amenities (except perhaps for the gym, which is small. But you should be walking around anyway!) are top-notch. They offer a nice breakfast spread. I would definitely make this my choice next time I'm in Paraty.

Uma experiência inesquecível em Paraty! A Pousada Literária superou todas as nossas expectativas. A começar pela arquitetura deslumbrante, que respeita o charme do centro histórico ao mesmo tempo em que oferece muito conforto e sofisticação. O atendimento de toda a equipe é impecável, sempre gentis e dispostos a tornar a estadia perfeita. Como o próprio nome sugere, o grande diferencial é o charme dos livros espalhados por toda a pousada, criando ambientes de leitura aconchegantes e inspiradores. Para fechar com chave de ouro, fomos surpreendidos no checkout com uma linda cesta de produtos orgânicos. Um detalhe de muito carinho que mostra o cuidado da pousada com os hóspedes. Recomendadíssima!

A melhor parte da estadia foi, sem dúvida, o spa. excelente e altamente recomendável. Os livros no quarto são um delicioso convite a conhecer novos autores, criando um ótimo passatempo Já em relação à pousada, infelizmente minha experiência não foi tão positiva. No momento da reserva, não fomos informados de que o local estava em obras; só descobrimos ao chegar. Isso impactou bastante a estadia, especialmente porque pegamos um fim de semana chuvoso e acabamos passando mais tempo do que o previsto nas áreas internas. As furadeiras e barulhos constantes tornaram esse tempo bastante desconfortável, e lamento não ter tido a opção de escolher outra acomodação caso soubéssemos previamente dessa condição. O atendimento no restaurante também deixou a desejar: diversos itens do cardápio estavam indisponíveis (como água de coco e dadinho de tapioca) e um hambúrguer que pedimos nunca chegou, nem fomos informados se estava em falta. Esperava um nível de serviço mais alinhado ao padrão que a pousada comunica. No conjunto, apesar do spa realmente se destacar, e o café da manhã ser muito agradável, a estadia ficou aquém das expectativas, principalmente pela falta de comunicação sobre as obras e pelo atendimento inconsistente e moroso

A pousada é linda e muito bem cuidada. O quarto era muito confortável e limpo, apenas um pouco barulhento, devido a uma festa noturna, dentro do hotel. O café da manhã era incrível, muitas opções e quase tudo feito na hora, por uma equipe muito competente e prestativa. A recepção é apenas OK: não demonstrou interesse em apresentar a pousada ou arredores, mesmo informando que era nossa primeira visita. Tudo caminhava para ser uma experiência incrível, exceto pela cobrança abusiva do café da manhã que já havia sido pago pela hoteis.com. No site da pousada, no check-in e no Guia de Experiências disponível no quarto, informam que é possível tomar café a qualquer momento, já incluso na estadia. No Guia, há inclusive um QR Code que leva a um cardápio sem preços. Pedi meu café, e ele foi cobrado no check-out. Vale destacar que o preço cobrado não está disponível em lugar algum, pois o cardápio não tem preços, tão pouco informam no momento do pedido, descumprindo totalmente o Código de Defesa do Consumidor (atr. 6º e 31º). A recepcionista argumentou que cobrança é feita pois consumi café no dia do check-in e a política só é válida no dia seguinte, mas isso não é explicado previamente, então aqui são infligidos os Art. 30º, 46º e 47º. Ser engando dessa forma prejudicou muito minha experiência.

Tivemos uma estadia fantástica na Literária, em Paraty. O hotel consegue um equilíbrio raro entre elegância e acolhimento — sofisticado sem ser formal ou rígido. A atmosfera é um dos seus maiores destaques. O jardim e os pátios são muito bem cuidados e criam uma sensação de tranquilidade e privacidade, mesmo estando a poucos minutos a pé do centro histórico. Os quartos são decorados com muito bom gosto e atenção aos detalhes. Tudo parece pensado com cuidado, nada genérico, e o nível de conforto é excelente. O serviço foi um dos pontos altos da estadia. A equipe da recepção e do atendimento foi excepcional — sempre atenciosa, simpática e profissional. A equipe do bar e da piscina também foi muito simpática, embora o atendimento pudesse ser um pouco mais atento e proativo. O café da manhã merece destaque especial. Foi excelente — muito bem apresentado, com alta qualidade e uma ótima combinação de opções locais e clássicas. No geral, a Literária é mais do que um lugar para se hospedar — faz parte da experiência de Paraty. Uma escolha perfeita para quem busca algo boutique, tranquilo e com um toque de sofisticação.
