A country haven close to the pretty resort of Campos do Jordão

Resembling a pretty Swiss chalet surrounded by manicured gardens and dense woodland, Hotel Toriba is located in the Serra da Mantiqueira, at an altitude of 1700 metres. In the heart of nature yet just minutes from Campos do Jordão, this traditionally decorated hotel has three superb restaurants, three bars, a pool, panoramic sun terrace and five beautifully preserved frescoes by Fulvio Pennacchi.

Delightfully comfortable with rooms, suites and apartments in the main house and within the stunning grounds, Hotel Toriba has a cosy ambiance with a touch of retro styling. Be sure to seek out the important works of art by Pennacchi in several of the public rooms. Then, sit on the sun terrace with a refreshing drink and take in the view of the valley framed by tall pine trees.

Wake to wonderful garden and mountain views and following a delicious Hotel Toriba breakfast, head into the upmarket district of Capivari with its distinctly European style, timber-framed houses and boutiques. Be sure to taste the chocolate, sold in numerous boutiques here, and then work it off on an excursion to Horto Florestal State Park.
