L'Hotel PortoBay Sao Paulo is an upscale property ideally located in the heart of Bixigia, Sao Paulo's "Little Italy." The 84 rooms here are elegant, comfortable, and well-equipped with flat-screen TVs, minibars, and lovely marble bathrooms. Some units have balconies, but only suites have coffee- and tea-making facilities. Trebbiano Restaurant is known for its excellent breakfast buffet, which includes a special Japanese spread, but it also serves solid Mediterranean cuisine for lunch and dinner. The small spa is lovely, offering Japanese tubs, a wonderful array of body treatments, and a sauna, while the tiny indoor pool -- complete with a retractable roof -- is a pleasant spot for some quiet time or a dip. There are also five meeting rooms, a bar, and on-site covered parking (for a fee). Event planners looking for more room may want to consider the similarly priced Renaissance Sao Paulo Hotel, which has a huge gym and tons of meeting space.

What are the Design and Scene Like at L'Hotel PortoBay Sao Paulo?
Upscale, classic hotel with marble lobby, popular with business travelers
L'Hotel PortoBay Sao Paulo is an upscale tower hotel with a classic, and some might say dated, lobby clad in rust-red and cream-hued marble. Big tufted armchairs, heavy wooden furniture, and mirrors with ornate golden frames dot the area next to reception, while fresh flowers give it a pleasant feel. Elevators lead up to rooms, though there's a wide staircase with an old medieval-style tapestry at its landing that adds a little drama to the space. Two mezzanine levels with open balconies look down to the lobby below, lending the entrance a rather grand feel. The Trebbiano Restaurant here is contrastingly chic, with green accents and wood floors that give it a modern-vintage feel. While the property attracts plenty of tourists due to its central location just off Avenida Paulista, it's also popular with business travelers.
Where is L'Hotel PortoBay Sao Paulo Located?
In the heart of Bixiga, close to the city center and walking distance to attractions
L'Hotel PortoBay Sao Paulo is located right off Avenida Paulista, the city's main thoroughfare, in Bela Vista (AKA Bixiga). Bela Vista is known for great Italian food and theaters, and while the nightlife is not as lively as it was in the 80s, this is still a fun spot after dark. The area is also home to great shopping, and there are several malls within a few blocks of the hotel.

Suites, however, have been renovated and have stylish additions such as off-white and charcoal rugs with zig-zag patterns, vintage-style leather accents, and elegant wall moldings.
