Tapestries, carved antique headboards, secretaries with mother-of-pearl inlays, premium cotton bed linen with the hotel logo, polished silverware: nothing was spared for our dear guests.

The works of art - paintings and sculptures placed and hung throughout the house - are entirely originals, part-time hotel owner and collector.

At La Trattoria Tony, chef Talaso Bo treats guests to signature versions of Italian and Paraguayan dishes. And for an aperitif, you should definitely look into the hotel lounge, which is simply called the Great Room, with an antique piano and a collection of paintings.

The hotel also has room for a small but well-equipped fitness room, and there is a patio outdoor pool.
