Rosewood São Paulo

Rosewood announces its first property in South America with Rosewood São Paulo. Rosewood São Paulo is located in an historic 1904 building that was formerly a maternity hospital and lies at the centre of Cidade Matarazzo, a complex of elegant, preserved buildings that were built in the early 20th century. The site was developed by French entrepreneur, Alexandre Allard, who previously helped to bring about the renaissance of the House of Balmain. Allard and Rosewood collaborated on this project with leading international figures such as the Pritzker Prize-winning architect Jean Nouvel, the designer Philippe Starck, as well as the renowned Brazilian artists Vik Muniz and Saint-Clair Cemin. Rosewood São Paulo features 151 guest-rooms and 122 owners' residences, situated within a vertical park created by Nouvel. Two restaurants, including one located on a veranda overlooking the lush hotel gardens, are complemented by a bar and lounge. Recreational facilities will include two swimming pools (one rooftop pool and one set amongst the landscaped grounds) in 2023 the facilities will be expanded and feature a large spa with six treatment rooms. The property offers a number of event and meeting spaces totaling 100,000 sq ft. For special occasions, a listed wedding chapel stands in the grounds of Rosewood São Paulo. The chapel retained the original architecture with a new stained glass window which has been specially commissioned.
