On the continent of South America, North of Brazil in the midst of the beautiful tropical rainforest, lies a small country that, due to so many ethnic groups and cultures, is rightly considered "Caribbean". Paramaribo, the capital of Suriname, is often described as "the pearl of the Western Hemisphere" in literature, due to the beautiful white colonial buildings. Guesthouse Albergo Alberga, is located in one of these: tasteful, pleasant, rustic and typically Suriname. The premises, built during the late 19th century, and constructed entirely of wood, are listed as a World Heritage monument. Our Guesthouse is located in the hart of Paramaribo. In less than five minutes, one can walk to the entertainment district, Independence Square, the riverside (waterkant) and the shopping district. Seated on our large, green, wooden balcony, one looks out upon one of the best remaining preserved historical streets of Paramaribo. Typical Amerindian costumes, souvenirs and paintings by Suriname artists decorate the wall. Drinks are available at the bar, including the well known "Djogo", Suriname beer. In the lounge, we have TV facilities. We also provide washing and drying laundry services. Ten pleasant and tidy furnished rooms are at your disposal, for one to four people. You may choose between an air-conditioned room with a TV or one with a fan.
