Extremely well-run hotel within a ten minute walk from the heart of “Gay Caneca.” The Japanese/Brazilian hotel franchise known as Blue Tree is known throughout Brazil for its top-notch management and attention to detail. The company’s Paulista location is an excellent gay-friendly option.

It’s two blocks away from Avenida Paulista and less then ten minutes away from popular gay spots A Lôca, Barão da Itararé, and Bar Bofetada. It’s fun to go bar hopping and then retreat to the serenity of Blue Tree. The breakfast buffet offers American favorites, standard Brazilian fare, and traditional Japanese options.
