Okay hotel in good location

3.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed Sep 1, 2015
This hotel has especially good location in the city. It's right next to Avenida Paulista and close to many restaurants and shops. Hotel is not very spacious, though at least my room was quite large for one person. A slight disappointment was the quality of materials and finishings in the room, especially in the bathroom which was very old-fashioned and very small. Hotel is quite clean though.

Hotel has a restaurant/bar, gym, backyard with a swimming pool, and the Sky Bar with quite fachinating view above city. Equipment at the gym is not up-to-date, sun doesn't shine at backyard because of other high buildings (perhaps in mid-summer it's different) and the water in pool is far too cold at least for me. Nice extra is the sauna next to gym.

Breakfast is just ok - nothing fancy and the same stuff every morning. Fresh fruits, bread, scrambled eggs, salsicha, juice, coffee...

I had my room at 3rd floor with a view to the alley which wasn't nice. Waitress left my window open every morning after cleaning, hence someone could have come in via roof right next to my room! That ended after informing the front desk.
Date of stay: August 2015
Room Tip: Room at the 3rd level was a bit noisy. The upper you go the better view.

A great place to stay in Sao Paulo. Great location, great staff, great cleanliness. I stayed here on business for a week recently. I would recommend this hotel very strongly it is well located, very safe and very good value for money. All of the staff were very helpful and efficient. Many people often complain about Wi-Fi in Sao Paulo but the Wi-Fi here is very good. I will most definitely stay here again.

The room is amazing, everything you might need. I loved specially the red sofa. The bed is incredibly comfy, really nice and clean, good lightening in the toilet too. The localization is also really great.

The location is great, with lots of good restaurants around and the hotel is close to Avenida Paulista.
Unfortunately the management of the Hotel does not work, leaving guests waiting at check in or check out even hours to be attend .... terrible ..... It is very far from being an international hotel with a few stars ....

The Transamerica Prime Hotel is very good , I stayed here this week for 6 Nights.
On the Rooftop , 29th Floor is the viewbar with a excellent view over the City of Sao- Paulo and with Livemusic every night. Also the area here is nice with a lot of good Restaurants. Only little minus , the braefast could have some more variety . But I will come back here again in the future /
