The Property — Abbas Hotel
The Abbas Hotel is a no-frills business-oriented 3-star right off Avenida Rondon Pacheco, Uberlândia’s main commercial spine. The lobby is functional rather than fancy: tiled floors, a reception desk with a computer terminal, and a small seating area where you might see salespeople checking phones. It suits short-stay travellers who need a clean, reliable room near the city centre without paying for frills they won’t use.
Chronicles of Uberlandia
Uberlândia was founded in 1888 as a small settlement on the road between Goiás and São Paulo, later becoming a railway hub. Its growth boomed after the 1920s when the Mogiana Railway arrived, then again with the shift towards agribusiness and logistics. The city’s architecture is largely mid-century modern and unadorned, with wide avenues and few historic buildings, reflecting its pragmatic frontier spirit. Today it’s known as a regional commercial and medical centre, with a young population driven by its two large universities, giving it a lively but workaday feel.
Best Time to Visit
Full Uberlandia guide →Best months
May, June, July – these are the dry winter months, with clear skies, low humidity, and daytime highs around 25°C. Crowds are minimal because it’s not a tourist city, so you’ll find good availability and reasonable rates.
Peak / festival surge
December and January – school summer holidays and Christmas bring families visiting relatives. The city warms up to 30°C with frequent rain. Hotel prices rise by 15–20% and rooms book up for events like the New Year’s Eve party at Praça Tubal Vilela.
Budget shoulder season
March, April, and August – March has quieter weeks after Carnival, with still-warm weather but fewer crowds. August remains dry and pleasant, with hotel rates often dropping 10–15% as demand from business travellers dips.
Weather & packing
Uberlândia’s altitude (860m) gives it cooler nights than the rest of the Cerrado region, even in summer – a jacket is useful after sunset. Pack layers: light tops for day, a fleece or windbreaker for evening, plus waterproof shoes if you visit between October and March.
Live City Briefing — Uberlandia
- The renovation of Estação Uberlândia (the old railway station cultural centre) is now complete, with a new exhibition on the city’s railway history opening in June 2026.
- A new bus rapid transit (BRT) corridor along Avenida João Naves de Ávila launched in April 2026, reducing journey times between the city centre and the southern neighbourhoods. Visitors should use the ‘Uberlândia Integra’ app for live routes and fares.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jun 2026Before you check in to Abbas Hotel, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request rooms at the back of the building, away from the main road – these are usually quieter with less traffic noise from the front.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms near the lift shaft or stairwell doors. In a 3-star hotel, those areas often have clunky lifts and noisier foot traffic.
Best views
Ask for a room facing the back courtyard or an internal block – views are limited in a 3-star but you trade scenery for peace.
Quietest floors
Lower floors (1-3) can be quiet if the street is not busy, but higher floors (4+) usually cut out street-level sounds if the building has decent windows.
🔊 Noise notes
Check if the hotel has thin walls by tapping a bit after check-in. If so, ask to move early – don't wait until night.
Insider tips
Book directly with the hotel and ask for a 'quiet zone' room – some 3-star hotels reserve quieter rooms for phone or email bookings. Also, request a room away from the ice machine or vending area if the hotel has one.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Money & Currency
Get a travel card →Brazilian Real, BRL
Most people withdraw from bank ATMs (Banco do Brasil, Bradesco, Santander) for fair rates; avoid exchange bureaus at airports and shopping centres as they give poor rates.
Visa and Mastercard are widely accepted in supermarkets, restaurants and shops; contactless and mobile pay (Apple Pay, Google Pay) work in many places but carry some cash for smaller vendors and bakeries.
Restaurants often add 10% service charge (serviço) to the bill; check before adding extra. Taxi drivers don't expect a tip, but rounding up is fine. Hotel staff appreciate R$5–10 per bag or per day for housekeeping.
Eat, Shop & Travel on a Budget
Cheap car hire →A simple espresso (cafézinho) at a padaria (bakery) or lanchonete costs about R$3–5 and is strong and small.
A prato feito (set meal of rice, beans, protein, salad) at a self-service buffet costs around R$15–25.
A main dish like a pastel with juice or a simple pizza slice runs R$20–35 at neighbourhood eateries.
Popular cheap-eats include pastéis (fried pastries) and tapioca at market stalls, especially around the central market (Mercado Municipal) and food trucks on Avenida João Pinheiro.
Common budget supermarket chains are Supermercados BH, Atacadão, and Extra — good for staples and snacks.
Affordable clothing shopping is at street markets (feiras) like Feira da Avenida, and the shopping centres like Uberlândia Shopping have budget stores like Riachuelo.
City bus fares are about R$4.50–5.00 per ride (pay cash or reloadable card). The cheapest way from the airport is the bus line T120 (R$4.50) to central area; taxis cost about R$40+.
Eat at self-service lunch buffets (comida a quilo) for cheap, filling meals. Use an umbrella or hat instead of buying overpriced sunscreen at tourist shops. Buy bottled water and snacks from supermarkets, not hotel minibars.
