The Fasanos first made a name for themselves on São Paulo’s culinary scene: their eponymous Milanese restaurant opened in 1990 and remains a popular choice among local Epicureans. Twelve years later, they expanded the experience by opening this boutique hotel.

With shiny dark wood panelling, gleaming brass fittings and vast leather armchairs, the Fasano Hotel’s design follows a solid, comfortable vision of 1930s elegance. As well as some classic luxury amenities—linen drapes, Persian carpets, a rooftop spa and swimming pool—visitors can enjoy the heightened style and comforts of the Baretto, which Wallpaper once rated as the world’s best bar.
