Room Details

If you’re interested to see what modern, edgy design and hospitality looks like in São Paulo, spend a night in Hotel Unique. This hotel, located in the upmarket district of Jardins, near Ibirapuera Park, certainly lives up to its name. The building is particularly striking, comprised of a quirky semi-circular shape with the flat edge facing the sky. With curved walls and floors, glass porthole windows, and odd, yet tasteful furnishings, it’s part UFO landing, part optical illusion.

Downstairs you’ll find the glass-floored gym, where you can run on the treadmill while watching people swimming in the pool beneath your feet. The pool has a giant slide too!

On the roof of the building is Skye Bar, which offers a 360-degree view of this expansive metropolis. Expect tasty cocktails and a blood red swimming pool. You don’t need to be a hotel guest to visit the bar – there’s no cover charge either. However, the rooftop pool and sun lounges are for hotel guests only during the day.

Rooms are spacious and plush, with sumptuous bedding, jacuzzi baths and motorised black-out blinds. Expect luxury without the pretence.

Prices vary depending on the season, with Standard double rooms starting at R$1,033 per night.
