Das Eigentum — Kitnets Schmitt
Kitnets Schmitt is a no-frills 3-star in the central Vila Nova district, specialising in self-catering studio apartments (kitnets) rather than hotel rooms. The lobby feels like a small apartment block entrance: functional, clean and quiet, with a reception desk and a few chairs. It suits independent travellers who want a kitchenette and a central base without paying for extra hotel services. The USP is practical independence at a low price point, not charm or luxury.
Chroniken von Blumenau
Blumenau was founded in 1850 by German immigrant Hermann Blumenau, who named it after himself and set up a farming colony along the Itajaí-Açu River. It grew into a textile manufacturing hub, and its architecture still reflects that heritage—many timber-framed houses and old brick factories. Today the city wears its German roots openly: half-timbered buildings, the half-timbered city hall, and a strong beer culture. But it’s no replica of Germany; the street life, tropical gardens and Portuguese-language rhythm make it a genuinely Brazilian place, not a theme park.
Beste Zeit zu besuchen
Vollständiger Blumenau-Guide →Die besten Monate
October and November offer mild temperatures (20–28°C), lower humidity than summer, and fewer tourists than during Oktoberfest. March and April are similarly good for dry, comfortable weather.
Peak / Festival Surge
July is the dead of winter for most Brazilians, but for Blumenau it’s cold (10–20°C) and rainy, with very few visitors—the true peak is October for Oktoberfest. During that fortnight hotel prices triple and rooms sell out months ahead. July sees no major event, so prices are low and the city is quiet.
Budget Schulter Saison
August and September are the best budget shoulder months: still cool and often cloudy, but dry enough for walking, and hotel rates stay low until Oktoberfest season kicks off in late September.
Wetter & Verpackung
Blumenau has a humid subtropical climate, meaning winter (June–August) is cool and damp, not cold—but temperatures can drop to 5°C at night. Pack layers: a waterproof jacket, a fleece or jumper, and closed shoes; leave shorts at home.

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Kitnets Schmitt, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on floors 2-4 at the back of the building, away from Rua Francisco Vahldieck. These upper floors minimise street noise and offer better privacy. The hotel has no lift (3-star budget property), so lower back rooms are accessible but still quiet.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the ground floor facing the street (Rua Francisco Vahldieck). Traffic noise from this main road is constant, especially during morning and evening rush hours. Also skip rooms near the reception or breakfast area for quiet.
Best views
The best view is from upper back rooms (floors 2-3) overlooking the small rear courtyard or neighbouring rooftops, not the busy street. Front rooms see Rua Francisco Vahldieck—traffic and parked cars, no beauty.
Quietest floors
Floors 2 and 3 are the quietest. Ground floor is noisy from reception and street; floor 4 (top) may have heat issues without AC in summer.
🔊 Noise notes
Rua Francisco Vahldieck is a two-lane road with regular bus and truck traffic from early morning (6am) to late evening (10pm). Blumenau's Oktoberfest season (October) adds party noise until late. Weekend mornings bring street cleaning.
Insider tips
1. Park on the side street (Rua dos Andradas) if driving—free 2-hour parking, but check for residents-only zones. 2. Bring earplugs if street-side is your only option; the hotel doesn't offer them. 3. Request a room at booking and confirm 24h before arrival—reception speaks Portuguese only, have your request written down.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
