Top Pet-Friendly Stays in Belo Horizonte

Max Savassi Premier 14 is one of the better-equipped family stays in Belo Horizonte. The air-conditioned apartments have a kitchenette and a balcony, and the building adds an outdoor pool, an indoor play area for children, a sauna, a steam room and a fitness centre. The restaurant serving Brazilian cuisine is family-friendly, and pets are welcome. A score of 9.6 from 71 reviews is outstanding. I would book it for a city break with children.

For a family, the layout is the reason I would book Max Savassi Prime: each one-bedroom apartment has two bathrooms and a separate living room, so parents and children are not squeezed into a single space. The kitchenette covers simple breakfasts and snacks, and the private balcony adds a little air. The outdoor pool is open all year, which helps after a day out in Belo Horizonte, while the sauna and steam room suit the adults. Pets are accepted as well.

Family rooms are available, pets are accepted, and Casa Fiat de Cultura is less than 1 km away for a cultural outing.
