Sao Paulo is a 500 year old city, and the largest in South America. With a population of 8 million, even New York pales in comparison to Sao Paolo that boasts of a population of more than 19 million. The place can be easily identified as the cultural capital of the country with it wide range of museums, experimental theatres, historical sites, night clubs, restaurants and bars. Booking a hotel in Sao Paulo isn’t difficult at all. But before you book a hotel in the city, here are a few things that you ought to know:

• There are plenty of hotels in Sao Paulo that provide comfortable accommodation at affordable rates. In fact, you can even book a decent hotel for as less as $50 per night. Hotels are generally concentrated in and around a few areas like Jardin, Rus Augustus, Gaurulhos.

• Although there are plenty of mid-priced and budget hotels available within the city, they aren’t located in comfortable neighborhoods. Strolling along the avenue wouldn’t be a safe option, and you’ll have to spend your time holed up in the room.

• Sao Paulo charges a 5 per cent accommodation charge that is added ...
... to your bill by hotels. But other than this, there aren’t taxes on retail or goods.

• Rather than choosing combination packages that include air travel and accommodations. While this may sound convenient and affordable, you will have to be extra careful when choosing such a package. A dissatisfactory experience in one is sure to take on a domino effect and before you know, the entire vacation becomes a disaster. Finding good Hotéis em São Paulo is very easy, especially if you’ve done some research on the internet.

• Sao Paulo is also the financial hub of Brazil; hence you don’t have to worry if you are on a business trip and looking for suitable accommodations. People on a business trip often prefer to book accommodation in and around financial districts like Avenida Paulista.

• You can also choose to book an accommodation with an apart-hotel. These hotels offer one/two bedroom apartments and a fully furnished kitchen. They’re budget priced and yet offer the comforts of a mid-priced hotel. While you may have to compromise on a few amenities like money exchange offered in luxury hotels, they do offer breakfast, parking, and a small gym.

These are some of the things to be kept in mind before choosing to book Hotéis São Paulo.
