We spent the weekend in Sao Paulo February 15 - 19, 2024 ($124/night including breakfast). Even though it was after Mardi Gras, the carnival celebration was not over in Sao Paulo. We stayed in a perfect location and it was way overdue for a delightful 4-star hotel experience. Everything about this place we loved! And we paid only $128 per night for an executive apartment (superior style room) including a wonderful breakfast buffet.Rua Augusta where

Vila Gale Paulista is located just a block off the major thoroughfare of Ave. Paulista and two blocks away from Rue Augusta with lots of restaurants and nightlife. Great walkable neighborhood. We took Uber everywhere outside this immediate walking neighborhood. The Metro runs along Paulista.

Some of our destinations included Museum of Art of São Paulo Assis Chateaubriand, Catedral da Sé de São Paulo, Pavilhão Japonês, Parque Ibirapuera, São Paulo Museum of Modern Art, and Museu de Arte Contemporânea da Universidade de São Paulo.

The first group of pics below are from the hotel; the second group is pics of some of the sights around town on our weekend visit. For a city of 22 million we had got a great sense of it and had a great time!
