Sao Paulo hotels near Edifício Itália

Pros: Fruits

Cons: Most of the time breakfast not hot food cold

Pros: Very friendly girls both at check in and check out (Fernanda), got a room on one of the top floors (25th) with a great view and excellent facilities, also 24/7 selection of items for room service, overall best Novotel hotel Ihave stayed throughout, also SP such a great city.

Pros: Our check in was very efficient, and the attendant pre-filled most of the details that needed signing, which is a pleasant change from many of the other hotels we stay in Brazil where you can be standing there for more than half an hour while every hotel guest is forced to fill out their life details on individual forms. We found the check in process, and staff in general, to be very welcoming. We found the lifts to be efficient. The room we had (executive suite) was big enough for 2 parents, 2 children, and had a bath. We slept well. The main bed was comfortable. The bath / shower worked well. It is very close to the Famiglia Mancini restaurants where we had a birthday.

Cons: The sofa bed was sagging and wouldn't have supported an adult (but served OK for our little 3 year old). The attendant who setup the sofa bed told us it is due for replacement. The TV in our room had poor reception (fuzzy) and was on a swivel - that kept swivelling. The other room we had booked (for the grandparents) did not have that problem. The breakfast wasn't quite as good as the previous hotels we've stayed at during this same travel: it's a huge breakfast room with which it is hard to achieve the same cosiness as with more boutique hotels. I guess it does have to efficiently process hundreds and hundreds of guests. However we also had to chase around to get cutlery. There was a pair of men's underwear just under the bed, so the cleaning of that room can't have been too thorough.

Pros: Location close to Mancini Italian Restaurant ... walking distance . Thats all.

Cons: 1. Musty smell in the Lobby / Reception .. 2. Very slow check in / out process 3. Cleanliness in room 4. Worn out furniture with stains 5. Breakfast was --so so crowded

Pros: The location was excellent.

Cons: Found a used sock in the room between bed and curtains which means room had not been cleaned very carefully.

Pros: The hotel was well located within walking distance of the Praca do Republica. It has comfortable rooms with good views on the upper floors. Very good value for money.

Pros: Breakfast seemed to be fair enough. Lots of repetition though. Bethania, the room keeper always did a good job. I would recommend this hotel to a visitor.

Pros: Attention

Cons: The toilet was not clean , literally. They kindly changed me to another room but I could see dust everywhere

Pros: Close to everything and smacked in the city center. Great and helpful staff. Clean rooms.

Pros: The location was excellent and the breakfast was amazing. The staff was very helpful. The proximity of where I had to be was extremely convineient.

Cons: N/A

Pros: large enough room. good wi-fi. very good location. nice staff. excellent breakfast. luggage storage.

Cons: no kettle.

Pros: The breakfast is fantastic, especially the selection of fresh fruit. But my favourite is the shower, most powerful jet of water I've ever had in my life. It is so powerful that it almost knocks you over when you first turn it on. And it almost hurts as you stand there showering. It certainly does its job of cleaning you, polishes you up until you shine like a jewel. Best shower in the world. I go to Sao Paulo twice a year, have for years, and I always stay there, JUST for the shower!

Cons: I asked for the highest floor possible but I only got the 8th (the hotel has some 20 floors I think).

Pros: They do not provide the least minimum service of TV cablle...even more...they dont check if the applliances work rightly

Cons: the Hotel is the middle of a pretty dangerous zone with many 24 hoiurs cinema for adults at both sides of the hotel....many homeless sourrinding who approach to you asking for food or money, during the night hours it is almost impossible to leave and going around

Pros: Size of room

Cons: Place

Pros: staff, rooms, breakfast

Cons: nothing

Pros: Location in the heart of downtown close to all major historical sights, very friendly and helpful staff, rather spacious room with the bathtube, good breakfast, perfect value for money. Despite our arrival early in the morning (at 9am), we were provided with our room immediately. Also there is very nice and popular dining place just in front of the hotel - Bar Brahma.

Cons: The property is old and slightly obsolete. Not all the staff (even on the reception deck) speaks good English (but everyone is still very friendly and helpful). The exact location of hotel in the downtown is slightly gloomy and depressing (however, the are completely no problems with the safety).

Pros: The Location was good for what we needed to do.

Cons: The fact that we tried to have a snack in some tables near the Lobby late at night and the Staff didn't allowed us, we had to eat in our room with our friends. We were paying for the stay so in my opinion we should be able to use all the facilities of the hotel.

Pros: Everthing

Pros: The hotel is in a very central location in São Paulo. The room was is a decent size and has all the amenities you would require during a stay. There was a large and plentiful breakfast buffet.

Pros: Very good located, friendly and helpfull staff.

Pros: Location . Breakfast is very good. Personal in the restaurant are fantastic . Thanks Felipe for all help. Room look like the pictures.

Pros: Nice breakfast and staff are great.

Cons: Friday night was a bit noisy if you stay in the front of the Hotel.

Cons: Dinner at the hotel was included but very simple and not very flavorful.

Pros: Breakfast & Location was Brilliant

Cons: they charged me for the free complementary pasta

Pros: Breakfast

Cons: Old hotel, old room furniture, no touristic attractions around location, exchanged euro against much more less value than the applicable rates but was obliged to pay taxi. Hotel so far from Sao Paulo International Airport (taxi 120 BRL).

Pros: It was close to the place we were visiting.

Cons: Ver old Hotel. Pictures at the site dont correspond to the real location. Also beds are very old and odd.

Pros: Superior suite is a nice sized two room quarter. Breakfast is ok.

Cons: Hotel os very old. Ossues of all sorts inside and outside the rooms. Probably worse was the bed mattress quality which was one of the worst I have ever seen. Various weird smells coming into the room late at night - from painting to some sort of burning. Very annoying! Large double beds advertised are actually two single beds stuck together with a hole in the middle. The bathtubs are tiny, so don't fall for the pictures.

Cons: hotel needs a total renovation

Pros: Nothing is good here, don't believe that this is 4 stars hotels. You will hate SP because of this hotel.

Cons: Everything is old Location is bad AC is very noisy Food is cheap No thing useful in the hotel No Business central Don't believe the rating that you will see for this hotel, It is not worth the money

Pros: Breakfast, staff

Cons: Neighborhood

Pros: Large rooms, confortable beds separeted ambient in some room...good breackfast .

Cons: Big problem to do reservation. On booking web site they ask for credit card to make reservation.... Sometimes they do have room available on booking and on front desk...they do not have room available even to pay cash...lol... Usualy they don' t let you stay to make payment daily like other good hotels...need to pay everything up front...and these is very dificult for bussiness trip....when you don't have specific set date to get it done...

Pros: Is old building but very clean

Cons: The location

Cons: The location, at night, is kind dangerous.

Cons: Behaviour of Staff, they don't english. The person who knows english came last day & charged us more, what was agreed

Pros: The breakfast here is excellent. The breads and fruit are all fresh. There are meats and cheeses as well as an assortment of juices and hot drinks. The dining area is bright and clean and the staff attentive. The rooms are a good size. The a/c works great, and everything is super clean. The shower is fantastic. Nice hot water and good pressure. The neighborhood isn't great. It's not even good. But it's so well located that it's really easy to overlook that part. During the day it's fine and I felt perfectly safe walking alone. There are many places to get a quick snack or fresh juice. There's a small grocery store across the street as well as a pharmacy. The metro is a 5 minute walk away. So location wise, it's pretty great.

Cons: The rooms are not sound proofed. At all. My floor (11) is very loud. I was all the way down the hall from the elevator and could hear every ding it made as the doors opened and closed. Also there is a night team doing laundry. I was kept awake by the sound of their carts and door slamming as they moved around. Note: I'm a heavy sleeper so the noise truly is loud. I'll say though that it might no be this way on every floor or every night.

Pros: Location and breakfast

Cons: We arrived about 9 30am and left our bags at the reception and that was ok. But check in supposed to be at 2pm. They let us in at 3 30pm with abnormal wait time because "our room was not ready". We lost more than 40 minutes in queue to arrive to check in desk. And after we needed to wait more than 30 min for the room to get ready. There are big number of floors in the building and only two little elevators which you will wait a lot. TV was not working they had to fix it, picture was terrible because bad signal. The walls were like paper made and you could hear all your neighbours. There were one door in the room which were kept all the times locked and it was separation from other room ! Shower for toilet was leaking and there was little water on the floor from it. Wi-Fi was awful.

Pros: Good Security and good value for the money.

Pros: This hotel is perfectly located in the historic Centro of São Paulo. The daily breakfast is delicious and occurs in a cute cafe space located adjacent to the lobby. The hotel staff is very friendly and available to help when needed. This is the perfect hotel for travelers who want a nice breakfast before a busy day of sightseeing and a comfortable, quiet room for when they get back.

Pros: Central location. Close to metro. Very good breakfast.

Cons: Wifi was not working well on the floor I was on.

Cons: One of the nights, there was a loud banging on our hotel room door, which kept on going for 15 minutes. We choose to not do anything, and tried to tell the staff the following day, however they didn't really understand what happened - quite a scary experience!

Pros: The problem is there left. We have stay waiting long time. Its take too long time to check in and Check out. Before staff was very fast but new staff need training required.

Cons: If we reach there little before mid day they not allow check in even have a room availability.

Pros: Location was good. Clean and safe

Cons: Small room

Pros: Nice people here. Warm and quiet atmosphere here.

Pros: Location is good, just a quick walking to Largo do Arouche. Easy access to metro and other public transport. Must be aware in the night walking alone on the streets around, as in any other hotel around the center. Breakfast was good and freely served.

Cons: Wifi was not working well. My room was looking to the inner space of the building, and it was always noisy because of the ac engines etc. Bed was not too comfy

Pros: The location is good. The breakfast is quite nice as well. The staff is nice too.

Cons: However the room had no air con, the toilet was obsolete and full of limestone and the towels provided had some stains. The room was looking very old.

Pros: It was good for a cheap convenience stay. The foyer makes it looks like the rooms will be better than they actually are. The breakfast was ok.

Cons: The bathrooms and rooms are quite old and could do with being refurbished as the foyer can be quite deceiving.
