I’ve been in types of hotels and spas around the world but what Grand Hotel Araxa offers can’t be find anywhere in the world. It is well-being sanctuary for deep healing and spiritual awakening! Nestled in a beautiful pristine tropical forest area in the heart of Minas Gerais state, Araxa Grand Hotel offers all the comforts and premium amenities to make your journey one of the kind ever! From all-inclusive, half board or standard, the hotel features beautiful rooms, an extra large pool, plenty of activities, a state-of-the-art on-site spa, and a welcoming team ready to please you from the bellman to the General Manager. Mr. Renan Dias. The hotel is embedded with Brazil’s historical significance such as the hotel was a vision from former Brazilian president Mr. Getulio Vargas and hosted many other presidents through the years. The hotel was design by the architects Luiz Signorelli and world famous Roberto Burle Marx. The Araxá Grand Hotel has the largest sulfur and radioactive water spa in Brazil. The Spa offers different “journeys” and each one is designed to awaken, heal, and experience a profound and ultimate life transformation. In addition to all, inside the hotel complex, a 5 minutes walk from the main building is located the “Dona Beja” fountain which is known to bring eternal youth and beauty due its medical properties. According to legend, the irresistible beauty and youthfulness of the Dona Beja was due to the naked baths she took in the mineral water of radioactive source of the fountain, which you can do too when you stay in the hotel. I did it all and I can say, I’ve replenish my energies for decades, the Araxa Grand Hotel is a hidden treasury!

Place is the most relaxing ever! I enjoyed the quiet and relaxing places and sights. Breakfast was very well served and service was great. Nature looked astonishing with lots of options for sports and food.

check in was quick however it went down hill from there on the chairs on the floor that we were staying was covered in dust, and looked like it hadn't been cleaned at all! the carpets were disgustingly dirty and stained the corridor lights were not lit the rooms are sold as luxury suites but to the contrary have chairs and that are stained and totally beat up the bathroom was a joke, the door was damaged the taps are ancient the food was terrible and atrociously expensive the swimming pool was not clean the area arou d the pool was dirty as thouigh the staff had given up on the maintenance poor value overall despite the eye watering prices

From the elegant ambiance to the exceptional customer service (thank you Deiva Beatriz, Gabriel Rodrigues (Account Manager Taua Caete), Armerindo, Rita, Rafael (check in), Franciele, Joalisson, Renan (General Manager) and everyone that make the customer experience here awesome.

Experiência incrível, a viagem foi para comemorar aniversário de casamento, e descobri que o hotel oferece pacotes comemorativos, fechei alguns, incluíndo o pic-nic, que foi o alge de encantamento da minha esposa. Ficamos totalmente satisfeitos pela escolha. Pra quem gosta de história, charme e beleza, é o local perfeito.

Minha visita ao a o Grande Hotel de Araxá, localizado na Estância do Barreiro, teve um caráter de sentimento e de jornalismo. Meu pai, Sebastião de Souza Pinto e minha mãe, Zulma Zema de e Souza, aqui viveram na década de 50. Meu pai foi da primeira turma da Escola de Hotelaria do Grande Hotel, formando como Garçon, em 1945. Fiquei emocionado ao visitar as instalações nas quais ele havia percorrido quando aqui trabalhou como Garçon. Como jornalista registrei este fato à Gerente de Relacionamento, Deiva Mota, esclarecendo que era uma promessa feita ao meu pai antes de sua morte. Um dos pontos positivos que considero importante neste processo de reativação do GHA é a utilização de tecnologia do “QRC” nas dependências do Hotel e Termas. Outro aspecto é a conservação e manutenção da de móveis e objetos históricos e tombados pelo Patrimônio Público dos espaços e ambientes naturais. Registre-se a cordialidade e a informalidade na receptividade durante nossa conversa, assim como por parte dos demais funcionários.
