Just returned from Sao Paulo. This property is in a great location. The service was exceptional. Very friendly. The building itself was ok. A little worn but clean. The best part is the location. Within walking distance of the nice Rua Oscar Freire area with nice shops and cafe. If you want to try a nice Cuban cigar while sipping... More

I stayed for 3 nights on business. It is more casual than supposed to be as its name "executive the advance", actually. Staffs are nice and the room is comfortable enough for its price. You need to tell in Portuguese when you order a room service, but no need any difficult words. If you can tell your room number and... More

Excelent cost-benefit. Only 1 block from Paulista Avenue, near to subway station (essential in Sao Paulo). Near to several good restaurants, with a charming (but small) public park at a walking distance. An easy place to go by taxi, about 5 miles from domestic flights airport. People at the front desk are very kind and try to do everything to... More

Typical hotel for business travellers: practical, spacious rooms, comfortable, charmless and well located for those who need to work at Paulista Avenue area or wish to use the metro/subway. Breakfast is regular. Pros: in room sitting area with sofa, work table with chair, and a kitchenette set with microwave oven, nice bed. Cons: slow service at front desk. More

I was in Sao Paulo on Business for just over a month's time. Two days after check-in I had a surprise when they offered me a lower rate than what I had originally arranged. They lowered the daily rate by around 20% considering that I am going to stay over 30 days. The staff at reception speak good English ,... More

Do not expect a friendly smile from the receptionists. The air conditioner just next to the bed is an invitation to wake up with a cold, the Gym is for show only, all the equipment is rusty and badly cared for. Small but nice clean pool and dry sauna, large clean rooms, soft bed and the breakfast is not too... More
