Local knowledge for Ouro Preto

Where to stay

Most budget accommodation sits within a few blocks of Praça Tiradentes, the town's central square. The streets sloping down toward the Antônio Dias parish are a little quieter and still a short walk from the main churches and the Museu da Inconfidência.

Getting around

  • The cobblestone streets rise and fall sharply. A rolling suitcase is a liability here. Pack a backpack or be ready to carry luggage by hand.
  • Buses to Mariana, the neighboring colonial town, run throughout the day and cost a few reais. It makes a solid half-day side trip without paying for a guided tour.
  • Semana Santa (Holy Week before Easter) is the single biggest event on Ouro Preto's calendar. Prices spike and rooms sell out weeks in advance. If your dates are flexible, the week immediately after is quieter and noticeably cheaper.

When to go

Hostels are most affordable from April (after Easter) through June and again in August. Expect full houses during Carnival, Semana Santa, and the July school holiday period.
