    The number one hotel in the world for 2024 is the Hotel Colline de France, a boutique hotel located in the town of Gramado, a mountain resort in the far south of Brazil.

    The property is “renowned for its personalized service and French elegance,” says Tripadvisor, and it has been ranked among the top five for three consecutive years.
