I was in Vicosa attending a conference, so this hotel booking was left in the hands of the organisers. I did not have high hopes (past experience) and nor did I think Vicosa itself was the ideal location for a landmark conference.

Vivant has a bit of an 'industrial'' look to it but anyone with business at the large Federal University in Vicosa could not be better placed than at the Vivant Suites Rooms were clean and relatively quiet, building was very modern, I would guess it had been built quite recently. Breakfast was typical could not say good or bad - more than adequate. Walking distance to the centre of town and the University of Vicosa sprawling campus Check out staff were slow and disorganised but overall the Vivant Suites was an unexpected surprise

This hotel is so new that the space by the front door designated for a small sofa is currently empty. The walls are mostly blank, awaiting art, and the kitchen window has no blinds or shades. (The view out our kitchen window was of a lovely lake.) But everything is thoughtfully laid out, with the kitchen area having a two burner gas stove and a desk in the sleeping room. This could easily be turned into a lovely dorm room should the nearby University require additional space. The breakfasts were typical of our experience in Brazil, and everything I tried was fresh.
