Tivoli Mofarrej Sao Paulo is a large upscale hotel on Alameda Santos in Jardins, just off Avenida Paulista and close to the Trianon park and MASP. It belongs to the Tivoli group and is one of the best-known full-service hotels in this part of the city, with a reputation for professional service and a calm, well-kept atmosphere. The lobby and public spaces are elegant without being showy, and the rooms are spacious, with large windows, comfortable beds and generous bathrooms. The hotel has a restaurant, a bar, an outdoor pool with a terrace, a spa and a fitness centre, and business facilities that make it popular with corporate travellers. For leisure visitors the main appeal is the location, which puts museums, cafes, the metro and Jardins' shops and restaurants within easy reach.
Location and getting around
The hotel is on Alameda Santos, a quiet, tree-lined street one block from Avenida Paulista. MASP, the Trianon park and the Trianon-MASP metro station are within walking distance, which makes this one of the easiest upscale hotels from which to see the main sights without a car. Jardins' restaurants and boutiques are close, and ride-hailing cars take you to Ibirapuera, Vila Madalena and the old centre. In daylight the neighbourhood is pleasant for walking, while late evenings are best covered by car.
The rooms and the facilities
Rooms and suites are modern and comfortable, with air conditioning, desks, large televisions and good soundproofing for a busy city, and higher floors often have views over the rooftops. The outdoor pool and terrace provide a relaxing break after a day of sightseeing, and the spa and gym are useful for long trips.
The on-site restaurant and bar serve meals through the day, and a buffet breakfast is usually available, though you should check whether it is included in your rate. Business facilities, concierge service and meeting rooms are available, and the staff are used to international guests. Services can change, so confirm what is offered at the time of booking.
What to know
The hotel is popular with business travellers on weekdays and with events at weekends, so rates can rise sharply during trade fairs and large conferences. Book early for those dates and ask for a higher floor and a quiet side if you prefer calm. Parking is normally available for a daily fee, but most visitors will find the metro and ride-hailing cars simpler.
For travellers who want a comfortable, polished base within walking distance of MASP and Avenida Paulista, without the price of the city's most exclusive addresses, Tivoli Mofarrej is a dependable middle path between the luxury hotels and the budget options on the avenue.
