Fasano, Sao Paolo
A fine recreation of 1930’s glamour and elegance, the Fasano Sao Paulo is a chic, understated institution boasting glossy wood floors, period furniture and bold English brickwork. Leather upholstery, roaring fireplaces and vintage lamps create a cosy, plush environment in which to indulge and unwind. Expect superior service and sheer sophistication at this grand Jardins property.The hotel’s 64 rooms and suites boast designer furnishings, sweeping city views and white marble bathrooms. King size beds feature silky Egyptian cotton sheets and plump goose down pillows, whilst LCD televisions and iPod docks promise modern entertainment. If you are travelling in a larger party, or simply desire acres of space in which to relax, we recommend the two bedroom suite. Situated on the top floors of the hotel with panoramic city views and generously proportioned living spaces, this lavish accommodation boasts a comfortable lounge, a stylish dining area and walk in wardrobes. Whirlpool baths and a Bang and Olufsen sound system are extravagant additions.
Classicism and modern panache fuse in the hotel’s restaurants, with the chic Restaurante Fasano serving traditional regional Italian cuisine alongside innovative, contemporary re-interpretations of established dishes. A vast wine cellar is also a celebration of Italian abundance, with perfect pairings suggested by the restaurant’s expert sommelier. For a rustic, homely meal we recommend Nonno Ruggero, an Italian Trattoria serving delicious antipasti and fresh salads. For drinks, jazz and intimate live performances the Baretto can’t be beaten, whilst the Lobby Bar is a relaxed and airy venue in which to sip an aperitif.
After exploring the chic Jardins neighbourhood, with its refined art galleries, designer boutiques and buzzing cafés, we suggest that you head to the top floors of the hotel to gaze over the city from the hotel’s inviting pool and baths. Workout in the well-equipped fitness centre or book a blissful massage before relaxing in the sauna and steam room.
