Sao Paulo hotellit lähellä Praça do Ciclista

Plussat: Located perfectly just a block away from the Paulista with access to the great metro system. Few blocks away from MASP. The breakfast is very elegant, served in a delightful space and everything that was served was absolutely delicious. The staff was super attentive, cordial, friendly and very knowledgeable. Our room was clean, nicely designed and very spacious.

Miinukset: Clients should have access to the spa facilities. It’s a cheap and great marketing tool to sell other services and make your guest even happier.

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: It feels like you're in a two star hotel, but you are actually paying for a five star. They do not provide free water in the rooms. The rooms are outdated and there is chipped wood on the doors.

Plussat: Hotel was excellent, staff was amazing, especially Fillipe who helped me out loads. A mistake was made to my booking and I was upgraded. This hotel is a true 5 star experience... and it charges 5 star rates... however, I thought the 5 star rates were competitive with other 5 star hotels. Everything really was to the expected standard so I give it full marks.

Miinukset: I was traveling all around Brazil and by the time I got to Tivoli I had some laundry to do. It cost me 430 reais to do a white and dark load... wooops!!! I should have checked that they were charging 10 reais to wash a little pair of underwear... (may as well just buy new stuff for that price). Bit exorbitant to say the least!

Plussat: the staff

Plussat: Modern, efficient staff, good location and very nicely decorated rooms. Good breakfast selction also

Plussat: A neat, nicely decorated, wall placed hotel in the center of the city, not two minutes walking from the busy Av. Paulista and the MASP museum. It's safe to walk around both during daytime and night. The staff is efficient and good humoured, though they indulge themselves a bit to much in ocasions. The spa, gym and restaurants ara A-class but a bit too expensive. I would have appreciated some all-inclusivce offers as to take more advantage to what the premises have to offer. Excellent on the whole, though.

Plussat: Excellent personal service. Beautiful modern design. Great location.

Miinukset: Expensive.

Plussat: The staff were very friendly and helpful. It's a lovely location, near shops, restaurants, etc. The little outdoor heated pool amongst sofas etc was very pleasant. I was able to do some work seating in the sunshine, excellent for Londoners. The common areas are trendier than the actual rooms which are bit traditional. Overall a pleasant stay.

Miinukset: Little niggles: no printed list of numbers/hotel facilities; spa was ridiculously expensive; kettle was provided but no cups/tea/coffee; hairdryer plug didn't fit in the bathroom plug, had to go out with wet hair (in fact there was a knack to fitting it but some of the staff did not know it); my room was very small, and lastly it was clear that they saved a bit on the hotel refurb as some of the...

Plussat: Being at the center of Sao Paulo

Miinukset: The room was too small

Plussat: Perfect location in Jardins. Excellent facilities (gym, pool...). Good breakfast buffet with most helpful staff.

Miinukset: Upon early arrival (just a couple of hours), I was told I would be charged for an early check-in, which I agreed to. However, I did not find fair that they would charge exactly the same daily rate offered at booking.com.

Plussat: Hotel is based in a charming old building of some sort. They weren't able to locate my Kayak reservation without the full confirmation, so fortunately I had brought that along. I was surprised that the included wi-fi was so bad although it worked better towards the front side of the room. Breakfast was nice with good service. Used their taxi into GRU which was professional and reasonable.

Plussat: Guest service: Allow me to check in early and check out late without extra charges Location Peace and quite right off Avenida Paulista Close to most things you may want for pleasure and business

Miinukset: The internet service is extremely slow, unstable (drops on an off). I had to find a virtual office elsewhere for a very important conference call. I had some other calls at the hotel where the client had to call me at the hotel and another one where they heard most but not all that I was saying. I called before booking the hotel and they told me they had made improvements 2 weeks ago. When I experienced problems and questioned the staff, they told me that they just added access points but no improvements were mad about speed (extremely slow), not could they control the stability of the internet (dropped connection). I should mention that even at the virtual office I had problems and had to make a call using international data roaming on my cell phone due to internet problems there too.

Plussat: The location was good, facilities were clean.

Miinukset: The internet connection was unreliable at best and generally nonexistent. It was slow during the day (speedtest.net about 2-3mb/s) but wouldn't work at all during the evenings. The hotel felt tired and in need of a facelift.

Plussat: the service... the food.... the security.... the location...the people they personally knew me by Mr _______ do not pass this hotel up i will never anywhere else

Miinukset: nothing i did not like

Plussat: Nice boutique hotel. Attentive service, clean. The Cab service provided to the airport was great, very comfortable and was reasonably priced ($R160). Very well located. Very comfortable bed

Miinukset: The carpet was old and worn but I believe they were in fact changing the carpet during my stay. Had a crying baby throughout the 3 nights I was there, in the next room and the walls are very thin. I have a reasonable tolerance to that but others may not. I guess there is not much the hotel can do about that but I was surprised given that my perception was that this is a business hotel. Other than that nothing negative to say.

Plussat: Love this hotel. I've stayed in three hotels in Sao Paulo and this is the one I'll be returning to. Such a lovely welcome. Great room and amazing breakfasts. The added and unexpected extras such as sparkling wine, chocolate and the japanese hot tub made the stay very special. Thank you to all the staff at L'Hotel Porto Bay.

Plussat: Best Hotel I have ever stayed in Brazil. Although it is expensive, the hotel offers you high quality.

Miinukset: If you need a taxi, don't ask it to the reception and don't take the ones waiting in front of the hotel. The Black colored taxis are luxurious but charge you more money. Take the usual white colored taxis.

Plussat: Exquisite service and attention to detail! One of the best hotels regarding the service that I have ever stayed in - anywhere. Period!

Miinukset: Two minor details. I was not aware that I have to pay extra for the cappucino that I was ordering every morning. The taxi service provided/associated with the hotel is even more expensive than the already expensive taxi service in SP. They should provide free taxi service/shuttle from-to the airport.

Plussat: The bed was huge for Brazilian beds. Very comfortable. Good location (1 block from av. Paulista, and close to metro, MASP...). Staff is very helpfull and attentive.

Miinukset: The food. We ordered roomservice: chicken soup and pasta. The chicken soup had no taste, despite the fact you could see it was done with fresh vegetables. The pasta was cold and nothing special. Just a bunch of cream with strong flavour of lemon. It was also quite expensive. The breakfast was also on the poor side. Lots of people and small sizes portions of everything. Staff couldn't manage the quick pace in refilling the buffet. Also you have to wait till they breng coffie to you. You took too long! (specially if you wanted a second round...). Main guests are business people.

Plussat: Close to where I needed to be, and close to the central avenue for shopping

Plussat: The staff were really friendly and always willing to help. I like the chinese jaccuzi, but remember, you have to call to reserve it, it takes time for it to heat up (free of charge). The pool and gym are bit too small but sufficient. The breakfast is good. I would definitely go back. While in SP, make sure to visit Skybar at hotel unique (the view and atmosphere is marvelous)

Miinukset: Wished that the pool was an outside pool :)

Plussat: Love Porto Bay Hotels and this is one was no exception. Fantastic Gym, Pool and Spa, Very helpful service and very nice breakfast. I will definitely be back!

Plussat: If the price/quality ration stays the same, this will probably become my best address in Sao Paulo. Maybe not 100% full five star but the service is extreemly high quality, rooms are very confortable (bathrooms a little small) and breakfast is perfect. Location is good as well.

Plussat: The members of staff at the Hotel is exceptionally helpfull

Miinukset: no

Plussat: Bathroom tub is great. Breakfast is delicious.

Miinukset: Send email to inquire about billing method but gets no response. It's not a big deal but hope they could be more attentive. Stay there for 5 days and the room is relatively small considering the room rate.

Plussat: Great location, nice staff and good price

Miinukset: Small rooms and not cleaned thoroughly; beds not very comfortable, shower not consistent, and thin walls

Plussat: The breakfast was good, the live music and bar were very nice, the staff was very attentive.

Miinukset: Check in time of 2:00 PM is very late. Check out time of 12:00 PM is very early. Wireless internet access should be free like most hotels in the US.

Plussat: Nothing

Miinukset: Absolutely horrible rooms, smelly carpets, cheap bed linen, dark and smelly hotel on the whole.

Plussat: Gostaria Gretzky Great location excelent breakfast Good value Gretzky

Plussat: Good location hotel, nearby museum of modern art (10 min. walk) and exclusive shopping areas (10 min. walk). 7 minutes walk to metro. Safe location also.

Plussat: locatiom

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Bar facilities very limited

Plussat: I’ve been many times in this Hotel. the staff is very educated and proactive. They speak good English

Plussat: location and nice staff

Plussat: Very good stay. Very helpful staff, good value, great location, nice room + bathroom facilities.

Miinukset: Only restriction was the swimming pool being closed for repair. But guess that's a must. After all, that was a worthwhile stay.

Plussat: nice and safe areal, mange restaurats around, and walking distance to main street Paulista

Plussat: Excellent location, just a few blocks away from the Museum of Art, Sunday flea market, the Trianon Park and the famous Paulista Avenue

Miinukset: Breakfast was not included as it usualy is in Brazil. The cost is R$ 28.00 which I consider too overpriced

Plussat: room furniture very confortabel

Miinukset: situation of hotel computers in front of elevators is unconfortable

Plussat: The porters were more helpful and friendly than the reception staff.

Miinukset: The elevator.

Plussat: Location. Location. Location.

Miinukset: The internet service hardly worked, even after several extended phone calls with a 3rd party provider. Also, I was promised (according to Booking.com) to be given a double bed room, but in fact I got a twin bed. Double ben was substantially more expensive and not even available. I was also asked to pay for all 13 nights upon arrival, which made me very subspicious. I decided to only pay for one night. I left the hotel after the first night.

Plussat: location, close to clinicas metro station, many buses on av.reboucas, near to paulista, near to pinheiros

Miinukset: lock on door - doors need to be slamed when exiting to be able to close

Plussat: Excelent breakfast and location

Miinukset: Bedroom a little small
