Hospital Umberto I, Neoclassical hospital in Bela Vista, São Paulo, Brazil.

The Hospital Umberto I complex spans 27,419 square meters and contains ten buildings with different architectural designs across the property.

Francesco Matarazzo established the hospital in 1904 through the Societá Italiana de Beneficenza to provide medical care for Italian immigrants in São Paulo.

The hospital marked the strong influence of Italian immigration in São Paulo, becoming a central institution for healthcare and medical training in South America.

The complex ceased medical operations in 1993 and is currently undergoing transformation into the Rosewood hotel, scheduled to open in 2024.

During its first year of operation in 1904, the hospital recorded 710 hospitalizations and provided medical consultations to 6,956 patients.
