Palácio Tangará overlooks the Burle Marx Park in central São Paulo, close to the home of Travelweek Sao Paulo by ILTM - Bienial Pavilion.

The hotel is considered a true “green sanctuary in Brazil’s bustling metropolis,” and will offer 141 spacious guestrooms (including 59 suites) all with beautiful views overlooking the park.
