ibis Sao Paulo Congonhas 3 estrelas

The desk reception did not accept my accor card as ID nor did they welcomed me as an associated member. The parking space below the building is not included in the bill, you need to pay separately, so it is not convinient.

I had always been 'dating' this hotel and the opportunity came up to finally stay there as a stopover in São Paulo, it's extremely practical for that: just cross the bridge from Congonhas airport and walk around the block. Rooms are not all in the typical Ibis standard, there are larger rooms for families of four, but they can only be booked on the ALL Accor page. Breakfast during the pandemic is in the reverse system, which means buffet is there but get to be served instead of serving yourself. It's not the best hotel to discover São Paulo as a tourist but very practical for very short visits.

In the winter season, there's no hot air inside the room. If you want a blanket, you need go downstairs to the reception to get one. In the morning I was waiting for my shirts. After long time I called the reception. They said I have to go downstairs again to pickup my shirts because they don't send it to your room. They staff are nice but the management... Too bad. Also I asked for another towel because there's only one in the room. They said I have to go to the reception again to get it. Too bad.

Great location for airport stop over, walkway over the main road to access the airport can be reached in 5 minutes by going out of the dining area of the hotel so safer than walking around the area. The rooms are basic and dated, but ok for a one night stop over.

Room is nice, I had a good night sleep at the hotel. Nothing compares to have the peace of mind of being close to the airport, depending only on yourself - 5 min waking - to get there. I went with my car, and let it at the hotel's parking - good price per day (R$30) - far cheaper than the airport parking area. Food also was good. All in all a nice place, lots of pilots and flight crew joining for the night.
