São Paulo
1930s Italian gentleman's club meets mid-century Milanese modernism. Understated, unhurried, discreet. No flashy lobby scenes, no DJ sets. The kind of place where Caetano Veloso books a long-term room and the sommelier knows every Barolo in the cellar personally.

Why It Matters
São Paulo's most critically acclaimed hotel, ranked #1 in the city by 14 travel publications including Condé Nast Traveler (96.6 score) and Travel + Leisure. Its flagship Fasano Restaurant has been a benchmark for Italian fine dining in South America since 1982, now led by chef Luca Gozzani. The Baretto bar was ranked #1 bar in the world by Wallpaper magazine. The Fasano family has operated restaurants in São Paulo for over 120 years — this is genuinely their home turf.
The Fasano name has meant something in São Paulo since 1902, when Vittorio Fasano arrived from Milan and opened his first brasserie. The family's first hotel followed a century later in 2003, and it landed quietly but confidently on its own private street in the Jardins district. Architects Isay Weinfeld and Márcio Kogan gave it a warm English-brick tower facade with a distinctly 1930s gentleman's-club soul — dark polished woods, Italian leather armchairs, Persian rugs, Murano glass, and enough old-school gravitas to make you feel like you've earned your stay.
Where You'll Stay
5 room types available
Deluxe Room
A comfortable step up with a proper immersion bathtub added to the white marble bathroom. Living area with two armchairs, king-size or twin bed configuration, 500-thread-count Egyptian cotton linens. Views of the Jardins neighborhood. Individually decorated — no two rooms are identical.
45 sqm
Deluxe Suite
At 1,235 square feet, the Deluxe Suite is where the hotel's design really shows off. Living room with dining area seating four, walk-in closet, and king-size bed with 500-thread-count Egyptian cotton. The white marble bathroom with hot tub is particularly well-appointed. Original artwork throughout.
115 sqm
Suite
Located on floors 16 through 18, these suites offer proper separation of living and sleeping spaces. Walk-in closet, separate sitting area, a guest bathroom, wide-screen plasma TV, and a powerful music system. White marble bathroom with hot tub. The views from this height over the Jardins canopy are genuinely impressive.
Superior Room
The entry-level category, and still a proper luxury room by any measure. Parquet floors, dark Italian leather furniture, Persian rugs, linen curtains, and that 1930s aesthetic the hotel does so well. Walk-in shower but no bathtub in this category — worth knowing before you book if soaking is your thing.
Two Bedroom Suite
The hotel's largest category, on floors 19-20. Two bedrooms each with king-size beds, a spacious living room with dining area, two walk-in closets, and white marble bathrooms with bathtubs. The highest floors mean the best city panoramas in the building. Ideal for families or guests wanting genuine apartment-style space in São Paulo.
