Who knew I'd find my favorite hotel in Curitiba?
LOCATION
Batel is the neighborhood you want to be in and Nomaa is in the heart of it. The clean tree-lined streets play host to a variety of local restaurants and bars. During the day it's a great area to walk around in, at night, it's safe and bustling with life. Within a 10 minute walk, there's Patio Shopping, the fanciest of malls (with Louis Vuitton, Farm, and others). My favorite feature? The VIP cinema that has waiter service -and- reclining chairs that adjoin (for romantic couples).
ROOM
My room had 2 shower heads in the same shower. The bathroom was beautifully tiled in large polished marble and might as well have been big enough to function as a studio apartment. Ok, maybe not, but it was a large bathroom and ideal for couples.
Bed: King size and super comfortable.
Nightside table: iPad included. Loved this. From the handy device, you could easily check email, browse the internet, or even order room service or chose from their amenities menu.
DECOR
Anyone who loves good design will drool over Nomaa. Eames chairs and other staples will delight the architecture and designed focused crowd.
RESTAURANT and BAR
Home to Nomade, the in-hotel restaurant and bar, I was a huge fan of the focus on gastronomy. The selection is modern European and ingredients are super fresh and tasty. Whether you order from the room service menu or dine at the restaurant, you're sure to be pleased. The cocktail menu is similarly exciting and well executed. Classics are there as are in-house creations.
There's also a spa and gym that I didn't have time to check out, but based on my overall impression of the hotel, I'm sure those two services are top notch.
