The most charming boutique hotel in the heart of Pelourinho! Both the room and bathroom were beautiful and spacious, with a mini fridge, safe (although ours was broken) and large cupboard. The rooms are named after Portuguese explorers rather than the more common room numbers, which was very fitting for the colonial style interiors of the hotel. Staff were so welcoming and very friendly. Breakfast is served at your table - tick sheet menu - and includes various cereals, drinks, bread, cakes as well as Bahian specialties. There is a small plunge pool, which we didn’t get a chance to use. We couldn’t have asked for a better location; we were able to walk through the historic centre, with both the funicular and elevator serving the lower city close by. Lots of eateries and fantastic musical entertainment right outside the hotel - music stops around 10-10.30pm. It is a short walk across the cobblestones to the main Pelourinho square, which pays homage to Michael Jackson who shot a music video there. A (steepish) walk past the church takes you to the rainbow street of San Antonio, with plenty more restaurant/bar options. Would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommended!

This was one of the highlights of my trip! Such a lovely hotel, I stayed there at the beginning and end of my trip in Salvador. It is the perfect boutique hotel in the heart of Pelourinho in Salvador. It is right next door to the Sao Francisco church and a short walk to some of the highlights of Salvador and Pelourinho. The hotel is in the colonial style, with unique rooms each named after a different Portuguese colony. The hotel had beautiful artifacts and touches in each room, making you feel like you're staying at a friend's home in Salvador. I was there in October, which made for very lovely weather during the day and in the evening. There were some tourists, but it wasn't too crowded. A lovely breakfast each morning with items unique to Bahia. Highly, highly recommend. Ana, Javier and all of the staff were super welcoming and helpful, even arranging a ride from the airport for me. I was working remotely from the hotel, and it provided a great, calm space for meetings. There is a small, cute pool in the courtyard as well.
