Yes, book it if you want a five-star base in central Campinas with a strong breakfast and a guest score of 9.0. If you only need a good bed, our Best Value pick scores the same for about €10 less per night.

This is a five-star hotel with an official rating, a 9.0/10 guest score and 997 reviews behind that number. It suits couples and business travellers who want to walk to bars and restaurants and start the day with a proper breakfast. The property lists a gym, a pool, a restaurant, family rooms and a garden, so families have options too.
Skip it if price is your main filter. Mariano Palace Hotel, our Budget pick, came in at about €51 a night. And if you plan long dinners at the hotel, read the restaurant comments below first.
Location and getting around
The address is Avenida Julio de Mesquita, 705. Guests describe the setting as central and say bars and restaurants are a short walk away. The location score is 9.3, one of the stronger numbers in this review.
The Basilica of Our Lady of Carmel is about 0.6 km away, roughly 8 minutes on foot. The Campinas Brazil Temple is 5.5 km away, around 69 minutes walking. That is far, so plan on public transport or a taxi. All walking times here are straight-line estimates and have not been verified on the ground.
What guests say
Breakfast gets the clearest praise. Guests mention a varied, fresh buffet with omelets made to order, tapioca and juices. The location comes second: people like being close to bars and places to eat.
The main complaint is the restaurant. Guests say the food is good and there is live music, but service is often slow and orders arrive late. If you are tired after a flight, that matters. Ordering early or eating out nearby are simple workarounds.
Price and what you get compared with our other picks
In our reference check, a 2-night stay on 10 to 12 November 2026 for 2 adults came to about €134.38 per night. That is above the sample median of €104.72. These are reference prices seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026, not live quotes, so check today's price for your dates.
For comparison, Mariano Palace Hotel (Budget, 3 stars, 8.2/10) was about €51.12 a night. Royal Palm Tower Anhanguera (Best Value, 4 stars, 9.0/10) was about €123.92. The honest read: you pay roughly €10 more per night here for the fifth star and the central address, not for a higher guest score.
Why it made our top 3
We compared 10 eligible properties in Campinas. Radisson RED shares the top review-score position among them, with 9.0 from 997 reviews. Our Luxury slot goes to five-star hotels first, and this one has the official rating plus a score that holds up across close to a thousand reviews.
The location score of 9.3 and the breakfast comments sealed it. The slow restaurant service is a real weakness, but it did not outweigh the rest.
