Pinheiro Beach Tours and Activities

As an international guest, I had expected that someone in the hotel is able to speak in English. That was not the case at all. In fact, when I was checking in, there was a problem with my payment, and it was really frustrating for both of us not being able to communicate properly. I relied on google translate if I wanted to ask about something, and that should be pretty much a yes/no question. The hotel did not have any map or booklet that explains the attraction points in the city. I thought that is fairly typical in any hotel, I don't know. maybe not in Brazil. Breakfast is Ok, nothing too exciting though. Internet was good. The facility is a bit old (or it looks old), and my room was very small. It mostly felt like a private hostel room. The hotel is located in one of the busiest part of the city. For a foreigner, it might feel a little rough in the first glance, but I got comfortable going out after a couple of days. Probably not the best place to stay out late though.

The hotel is centrally located in downtown Sao Paulo. There are many dining options. Rooms need to be updated. During our stay we had to go down to the reception to have the electronic key reprogrammed as they constantly stopped working which was an inconvenient. AC in the room was great. They offer breakfast buffet and restaurant is open for lunch and dinner as well. I suggest placing cards on the dishes to know what you are selecting from the buffet.

Very good breakfast. At least 6 varieties of fresh fruit in the morning buffet ...
