Fiesta Bahia Hotel
The Fiesta Bahia Hotel exceeded my expectations in many ways—great location, friendly staff, and a very comfortable stay overall. However, the breakfast was a letdown for a 5-star property. I was expecting more variety and basic items like warm sandwiches or cheese bread, but those were completely missing. It felt disappointing considering the hotel's high rating. Still, the room was clean, spacious, and well-maintained, and the service was attentive throughout. With a few improvements to the breakfast offering, this place could easily be top-tier. Overall, it’s a solid choice if you’re looking for value and comfort in Salvador.
Ibis Salvador Rio Vermelho
Ibis Salvador Rio Vermelho is a fantastic choice for travelers visiting Salvador! The location is unbeatable—right near the metro and just a short walk from major attractions. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, with a cozy bed that ensured a great night's sleep. The breakfast was excellent—fresh coffee, generous portions, and a nice variety of options. Friendly staff, reliable Wi-Fi, and a welcoming atmosphere make this hotel stand out. I’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.
Villa Domenico
My stay was absolutely fantastic! The host, Josy, was incredibly polite, attentive, and thoughtful—she shared so many helpful tips that made our trip much more enjoyable. The apartment was spotless and perfectly organized, making everything feel comfortable and welcoming. I’d highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Salvador. I’m already planning my return trip!
Bed & Breakfast Villa Carmo
The location is absolutely perfect—right between Pelourinho and the Santo Antônio neighborhood, near Alem do Carmo, making it super convenient for exploring Salvador. The room we stayed in faced the ocean, so waking up to that view was a real treat. The bathroom was spacious and well-designed, offering plenty of room and comfort. Everything about the stay felt thoughtfully put together—clean, peaceful, and genuinely welcoming. With such a great value for the price and an unbeatable position, I’d definitely come back without hesitation.
Studio Do Carmo Boutique Hotel
Staying at Studio Do Carmo Boutique Hotel was an absolute delight. Located perfectly between the historic old town and the trendy local neighborhood, it’s just a short walk to everything you’d want to explore. The rooms are spacious with high ceilings, air conditioning, and a small fridge—so comfortable and well thought out. I especially loved the breakfast, which was fresh, abundant, and served with a great vibe. It made starting the day feel special. The whole experience felt authentic and welcoming, making it easy to see why this place earns top marks. If you’re looking for a stylish, central stay in Salvador, this is definitely one to consider.
Hostel Casarão 65
The location is fantastic—just a short walk from the beach, with shopping centers, markets, restaurants, bars, and street food all within easy reach. Yet, it’s tucked away on a quiet residential street, offering peace and comfort without sacrificing convenience. The rooms are spacious and well-designed, and common areas are clean and thoughtfully laid out. The staff went above and beyond—always friendly, helpful, and eager to share local tips. Whether it was recommending hidden gem eateries or helping navigate the city, their guidance made our stay much more enjoyable. It’s rare to find such a welcoming atmosphere combined with great value. I’d definitely come back and highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Salvador.
Marazul Hotel
This hotel doesn’t actually exist—there’s nothing but construction barriers blocking the entire property. I booked through the platform, only to find out it’s completely closed and abandoned. It’s really misleading that this listing is still active. I’d strongly recommend travelers and locals alike to leave feedback to warn others—don’t get caught like I did. The lack of updates and transparency is disappointing, especially when you’re relying on accurate info for your trip. This place should be taken down from the site.
Hotel Pedra da Concha
We were just looking for a place to sleep, but this ended up being one of the worst hotel experiences I've ever had. Right when we arrived, the pillow was covered in someone else's hair—there was no way to tell if it had been changed or not—and it looked pretty grimy. Later that night, we found a cockroach in the bathroom and asked for insecticide, but shockingly, the hotel didn’t even have any. The breakfast was awful—cakes and pastries swarming with flies, and the tapioca was inedible. The overall cleanliness was terrible, and the staff didn’t seem to care. I won’t be returning, and honestly, this stay felt more like a horror story than a vacation. Definitely not worth it.
