Mercure Sao Paulo Moema Times Square

This hotel is small, but nice. The elevator is small and is slow. The room is spacious. There is a large desk in the middle of the room with an office chair and two lounging chairs and a small table to one side. I loved the lounging chairs because it was nice to be able to relax on someplace other than a bed, but still be in a private setting. I didn't care for the odd panel near the mini-bar. I don't know if there is electrical items or plumbing behind it, but it felt like wasted space. There were no luggage racks in the room either. The bathroom was decent-sized and in decent condition. The water pressure was very good. The swimming pool had to be accessed through another hotel which wasn't the most convenient. Towels for the pool were available, but had to be picked up in the lobby of the other hotel (it's right next door). The pool is mostly a lap pool, so long but not wide. It probably wouldn't be my first choice of hotels if I was traveling with children who wanted to swim. The breakfast had to be purchased separately (not included in the room cost). It wasn't a good breakfast, especially for the price paid. Breakfast items similar to most hotels I stayed at in Brazil. Fruit, breads, cheese, ham, scrambled eggs, juices, coffee, teas. The only two items I didn't find at any other hotels were tapioca and bacon. Room was clean. Front desk staff usually didn't speak English or limited English. Staff was nice, but not friendly. Wi-Fi was a little slow.

very good location, room is more suitable to European clients than N. American. No wash cloths (use hand towels), and pillow have no support

This has been my fourth stay at the Mercure time Square,,Very Good!!!
