While all that history is so easily felt throughout the light-filled hallways, meandering through the space is akin to being in a modern art gallery thanks to a vibrant collection curated by Sara Terzi, Soho House’s senior art collections manager. All of the interiors have been intentionally designed with Portuguese heritage and Brazilian artistry in mind, with modern art exclusively from Bazilian artists (many local to Sao Paulo) taking center stage.

Glance around any room on the property, and it’s a kaleidoscope of texture: reclaimed wooden floors; antique light fixtures and intricate chandeliers; wooden furniture in rich, warm tones; neutral walls with vibrant pops of color from paintings and photographs; mixed textiles and patterned upholstery; worn leathers; ample greenery — all illuminated by abundant natural light streaming in through floor-to-ceiling windows.

Unsurprisingly, Soho House Sao Paulo draws a design-minded, hip crowd — all week long, the halls and lounge spaces have been filled with the city’s chicest creatives and devastatingly cool fashionistas. Nightly events, specifically ones celebrating the LGBTQIA+ community as Pride continues this month in Sao Paulo, have kept the party going until the wee hours. Members can be seen relaxing and socializing on sofas, by the bar and in the historic courtyard, enjoying cachaca or a meal from the Brazilian-forward terrace menu, playing pool and chatting over the din of local music. It’s a lively place by night, and while it feels quieter by day, it’s still the spot to see and be seen.
The food is delicious in its simplicity and expertly crafted, and the menu highlights Brazilian classics. For breakfast this morning, I enjoyed an order of tapioca, a tortilla-like flatbread filled with fruit.

My room featured a moodily lit, spacious bathroom at the entrance, with stand-out features like a two-tone wardrobe and marble countertops. It led into a high-ceilinged bedroom, replete with eclectic modernist furniture and art, leaning into that characteristic blend of textures and patterns reflected throughout the rest of the House. Beyond the bold velvet couch, two enormous wooden doors led to a terrace overlooking the street below.

Amenities are impressive and include everything from citrus-scented Rio Negro bath products to local wine and a coffee cabinet housing a Nespresso machine and freshly baked cookies.

The deep porcelain soaking tub, framed by the antique wooden-shuttered windows, made for an eye-catching centerpiece.

This week, the first-floor lounge areas and workspaces are fully open to members, as are two bars, a dining courtyard and several upstairs lounge areas (but those are exclusively available to overnight guests). By the end of the year, the House will debut a gym with daily fitness classes and a rooftop pool with a bar and sunbeds.
