How Brazil Became One of the Most Exciting Hospitality Markets in the World

Brazil is world-famous as a vaunted travel destination, owing to the country's rich breath of cultures, incredible diversity of landscapes, and unmatched festivities, including the Brazilian Carnival, an annual festival held between the Friday afternoon 51 days before Easter and Ash Wednesday.

While Carnival—which features some of the largest and decadent city-wide parade events in the world—may steal headlines when it comes to the tourism industry in Brazil, it's far from the only enticement for would-be visitors. The beaches of Rio de Janeiro are gorgeous, and filled with gorgeous people, while eco tourists and adventures are sure to flock to the countries extensive tropical rain forests.

It's a cliché in the hospitality industry to say that a place offers something for everyone, but this may be true of Brazil, which presents a tapestry of people, places and events as rich as any locale on the planet. The Brazilian economy has also become a major player over the past two decades, rising in an array of areas, from agriculture to real estate, meaning that hotel owners and operators have seen a boost from business travelers to the country as well.

With all this in mind, it's important to keep informed about what's currently happening in South America's largest country, and, of course, one of the best ways to do so is by being aware of the largest hotel pipeline projects that are currently underway.
