Ipê Rosa Hotel
The city's one budget address, beside the Centrinho hospital
Bauru, Bauru
About this stay
The format is a budget hotel that also sells dormitory beds, not a backpacker hostel, and the distinction shapes everything about a stay here. Rooms and dormitories share the same tiled floors and private bathrooms, the property is entirely non-smoking, and free WiFi covers the building. What makes it more than a cheap bed is the position: 850 metres from the Hospital da USP Centrinho, close enough to walk to an early appointment, and a kilometre from the Vitoria Regia park for the hours in between. The automated check-in service removes the usual problem of arriving after a long coach journey with no one at the desk. The daily breakfast buffet runs to seasonal fruit and natural juices, which at this price is rare across the interior paulista.
- Dormitory beds and private rooms

Our take
Hospital families, students on placement at the USP dentistry faculty and drivers breaking a long journey are the right guests for this budget hotel. The walk to the Centrinho saves a daily taxi and the included breakfast covers the first meal. Travellers who want a social hostel atmosphere should not book here, because the common areas are quiet and functional rather than sociable. Anyone arriving with a pet should reserve a private room rather than a dormitory bed.
- ✓Message the property before arrival to confirm how the automated check-in works, because there is no permanent night porter to let you in.
- ✓Choose a private room over a dormitory if you are travelling as a couple, since the price gap here is smaller than the comfort gap.
- ✓Walk to the Vitoria Regia park a kilometre away for a free afternoon rather than paying for transport across the city.
Why we love it
- Eight hundred and fifty metres from the Centrinho hospital

Why guests love itIpê Rosa Hotel sits 850 metres from the USP Centrinho hospital and a kilometre from the Vitória Régia park, so I would point it out to families in Bauru for a hospital appointment on a tight budget. It sells private rooms with private bathrooms as well as dormitory beds, and the floors are tiled. Free WiFi runs throughout, and an automated check-in service covers late arrivals. Guests give it 7.5 from 93 reviews, a modest score.
