Guests will quickly become enamored with the Hotel’s detailed interiors, which feature travertine fireplaces and floors, hand woven carpets and upholstery and ultra-luxe French leather chairs. Restaurante Fasano, located on the premises, is considered to be Brazil’s best spot for authentic, Italian cuisine.

To top it all off, a poolside bar and restaurant will continue the culinary legacy of Rogerio Fasano’s great-grandfather, known for his trendsetting Italian cuisine which dates back to the early 1900s.
