Following the concepts of sustainability, there are many glazed areas to make good use of natural light. The pieces used as decoration have a sustainable source, recycled or reused in some way. In addition, two Muzzicycle bikes – made of PET – are at guests’ disposal and also for sale.

On the top floor there is a solarium with a green roof, which helps to cool down the environment and also create a beautiful and pleasant area.

Still in the solarium, there is a small vegetable garden, cultivated and used by the hostel bar, and a warehouse where the organic waste is processed, transformed into grass fertilizer in a composting process. Practical and sustainable!

Hostel Pauliceia – Mário de Andrade and his hometown

All references in Pauliceia mention São Paulo and the Brazilian poet Mário de Andrade. In the cozy bar, a mosaic with tricolored pieces reminds us the cover of Mário de Andrade’s book, Pauliceia Desvairada (Hallucinated City) published in 1922. The rooms were given names and decoration in honor of São Paulo neighborhoods, such as Anhangabaú, Bixiga, Liberdade and Ibirapuera.
