Rosewood Sao Paulo
One of the nicest hotels I have ever stayed at, and I stay at many Four Seasons etc. Beautiful rooms and excellent food. Very nice spa facilities. Did not feel over crowded. I did have a short stay so I could not say if location wise it was well located, I pretty much stayed in the resort the 2 days ...
