Ondina Apart Hotel
Staying at Ondina Apart Hotel was an absolute delight! The location is perfect if you want to be close to Barra but still enjoy a peaceful, residential vibe. The pool area is stunning—well-maintained, beautifully landscaped, and just the right size for relaxing or taking a swim. The apartment itself was spotless, neatly organized, and perfectly climate-controlled—no matter the weather outside, it stayed comfortable inside. I was greeted warmly by the front desk staff, who were helpful and friendly throughout my stay. The view from the window was simply breathtaking, especially during sunset when the sky turned golden. It’s rare to find such a clean, well-run property with such a great balance of comfort and convenience. I’d highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Salvador—whether for business or leisure. A real gem!
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.
Mercure Salvador Rio Vermelho
Every single day at this hotel felt like a perfect stay! From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The staff went above and beyond with their warm and attentive service, making us feel right at home. The room was clean, spacious, and beautifully designed, with amazing views of the city and the sea—especially stunning at sunset. The location is unbeatable: just steps away from local attractions, restaurants, and public transport, so exploring Salvador was effortless. Whether you're here for business or leisure, this place offers comfort, convenience, and an unforgettable experience. A true gem in Rio Vermelho—highly recommend!
Portobello Ondina Praia
This is our third time staying at this hotel, and it still feels like coming home. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive—always going the extra mile to make sure we’re comfortable. The location is fantastic: just a short metro ride into the city center, with plenty of great restaurants and lively spots nearby. The rooms are clean, well-maintained, and equipped with everything you’d need. It’s clear the team takes pride in their service, and that shows in every detail. Great value for money, and I’d absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting Salvador. Booking through the platform was smooth and hassle-free—perfect experience all around.
Sol Victoria Marina
Absolutely stunning location with unbeatable value for money. The hotel is perfectly situated near the marina, making it easy to explore Salvador on foot or by public transport. The rooms are clean, well-maintained, and surprisingly spacious for the price. Staff are friendly and attentive without being overbearing. I was blown away by how much comfort and convenience you get at this rate—definitely one of the best finds during my trip. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.
Hotel Alah Mar
I absolutely loved my stay at Hotel Alah Mar! The location is fantastic—just a short walk from the city center and close to great restaurants and local shops. The room was clean, spacious, and very comfortable, with a cozy bed that made for a restful night's sleep. The air conditioning worked perfectly, which was a big plus during the warm weather. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout my visit, making check-in and check-out smooth and stress-free. What stood out most was the excellent value for money—this hotel offers quality amenities and a welcoming atmosphere without breaking the bank. I’d definitely recommend it and will be staying here again on my next trip to 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.
Pousada Estrela do Mar
This hotel is absolutely wonderful! The breakfast was incredible—fresh, delicious, and varied every day. They offered a different natural juice each morning, along with treats like cake, couscous, tapioca, bread, cold cuts, and fresh fruit. It’s such a delightful way to start the day. The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and always ready to help. The entire place was spotless and well-organized. If you’re looking for a memorable stay in Salvador, this is the perfect choice—you won’t be disappointed!
Marano Hotel
The Marano Hotel is absolutely fantastic! The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, making our stay feel truly special. The breakfast was delicious and well-prepared with a great variety of options. The location is convenient, and the overall atmosphere of the hotel is warm and welcoming. It's clear that attention to detail is a priority here. I’d highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Salvador—excellent value and a memorable experience.
Pousada Marcos
Staying at Pousada Marcos in Salvador was an absolute highlight of my trip. Located right in the heart of Barra, this charming guesthouse offers breathtaking views of the ocean and is just a short walk from the iconic Farol da Barra lighthouse. What really stands out is how walkable the area is—most of Barra’s best attractions are within easy reach on foot, making it effortless to explore the vibrant coastal vibe. I loved strolling along the seafront promenade, enjoying the breeze while stopping by local cafes and restaurants that cater to every taste and budget. Whether you're looking for a casual happy hour or a more refined dinner, everything is conveniently close. The combination of stunning ocean views, prime location, and a relaxed atmosphere makes this place feel like a true home away from home.
Farol da Barra Suites e Hostel
Staying here was an absolute highlight of my trip to Salvador! The location is unbeatable—just steps away from the beach, restaurants, bars, and the iconic Farol da Barra lighthouse. My couple’s room was cozy, clean, and perfectly appointed with no flaws. What really stood out was the vibrant atmosphere—daily events like live music, cultural gatherings, and guided tours kept things lively and helped me connect with other travelers. It felt less like a hostel and more like a welcoming community. The staff were friendly and helpful, always going the extra mile. If you're looking for a fun, social, and well-located stay in Salvador, this place is a must-book. I couldn’t recommend it more!
