WHERE COLONIAL MEETS CONTEMPORARY

Certified as a sustainable tourism hotel by the Rain Forest Alliance, the hotel was originally built from a home owned by the Bemberg Family. New renovations include an elegant swimming pool surrounded by the jungle canopy, as well as a 2500-book library. The main living area, built from boards at the old Newell’s soccer field in Rosario, Argentina, boasts contemporary art from Latin American and European artists, and a grand piano, perfect for Guarani musical concerts.

FLAVORS OF THE JUNGLE

Cuisine at Puerto Bemberg offers guests a menu inspired by the colors, shapes, and natural ingredients of the Misiones jungle. Made from vegetables cultivated in the hotel’s garden, specialties include Paraguay soup, caper Surubim fish, Pacu, barbecues with delicious salads. Sweets include tropical fruit sauces, smashed manioc, and mate ice cream.

Chefs create unexpected flavor combinations with chic presentation, served at varying locales on the hotel grounds based on the preferred ambience for that day’s meal. Guests choose from over 1500 bottles of predominantly Argentine wines from the hotel’s vast wine cellar.

Ideal for those who love history and are looking for a colonial-style lodge. Not ideal for young children, though those ages 8+ years are welcome
