Location excellent for walking around the Jardins and about a 15 minute walk to Paulista, one of the main streets in Sao Paolo. The rooms are basic, but clean and comfortable. The staff very friendly and helpful and the breakfast was delicious, with excellent coffee and service. I would definitely recommend this place. May seem a bit pricey, but it's... More

The location is good. The place is a large house with a nice looking restaurant. The food is good. The Internet works very well. The people are friendly. But the rooms are disappointing. I was very surprised by the poor quality of the room. I was in a single room and in a double. The single did remember me a... More

I came here on reading a recommendation on the "Guide du routard" for Brazil. This is an old posada, which is rare in Jardim Paulista. It's close to everything: within Jardim Paulista, and 30min walking from the centre (or else take the metro), which is not a lot in such a large city. It costs around 100EUR per night, which,...

I travel to Sao Paulo regularly on business, and this is my favorite place to stay. The rooms are spread out over two stories of a large old colonial house in Jardins, and surround a small court yard in back. They are basic, clean, and vary in size. The bathrooms are adequate, although I have very occasionally had problems with... More

In the middle of Jardim Paulista, to my opinion the most relaxed area of Sao Paulo, we found Dona Zilah. A home where you can stay as long as you like. The best food, organic, healthy, extremely nice and helpful staff. For us it is a perfect basis to go to the CoolTravel Forest, one hour from Sao Paulo to... More

If you think about staying at this awful place, I strongly recommend you to reconsider your plans. I've payed 210,00 reais per night at room #01, but I should had payed no more than 70,00 reais! Even if you don't find another place to stay in at Sao Paulo, please try to reschedule your trip, try to find another place... More

I spent my first night in Brazil here, and it was a good choice for that purpose. The room was simple, clean and comfortable. Dinner in the restaurant was excellent. Staff were friendly and spoke pretty reasonable English (my Portuguese was rusty and my jetlag extreme!). The location is great and the neighbourhood feels fairly safe to wander about in.... More

Yes it is a basic room but it is nice and very clean. Perfectly adequate if you do not plan on spending all your time in your room. The breakfast and coffee is good.
