Van room with a view

Very close to our head office this is a very nice hotel. I know it for years, it has been Le Meridien and it is know part of the Dutch group Van der Valk. The marketplace in front of the hotel has a very nice Christmas Market in December, now (end of May) the square is being prepared for the 'Weinfest'.

Very pleasant hotel in the Itaim neighbourhood. Room, service and gym are really pleasant. The bathroom is very small. I would recommend this hotel while is good and not very expensive.

tryp nações unidas, sao paulo, brazil; room 1418

Van room with a view

In town for an event in the Transamerica Expo Center in April 2012. The service in Sao Paulo business hotels is very good, also in this Tryp. The rooms, and the bathrooms in particular, need some maintenance. The picture is a bit blurry because the window could not open (which I don't like) and it was kind of dirty.
