Bahia Othon Palace

The staff of this hotel was great--everyone was friendly and did all they could to ensure a pleasant stay. In particular, the woman with the short dark hair at reception was especially helpful and her perfect English was comforting (certainly my travel weary tourist Portuguese was a bit worse for wear after our long terrible flight!). Food was good too and the lobby bar was convenient and we loved our lovely waitress.

The hotel is in really weird area. Lots of high rises and a lot of people who work in the high rises--a lot of wealth disparity. The beach is kind of skeevy--there was always some guy sleeping on the rocks. Its in the middle--between Rio Vermelho and Barra--but that doesnt mean it has the best of both. I'd choose one or the other. Don't be fooled by the photos--the pool's nice but it isnt a resort. It really needs a major renovation and it may have been going through one while we were there--it looked like lots of things were in the middle of being painted and the weather wasnt helping move things along. Also a staff member told me the fitness center was not open. It's not a bad place though--it's quiet and staff and food are great.

Its in a decent beach front location where you can walk in Barra neighborhood, and short taxi ride to Pelourinho. Views from the rooms are stunning. Breakfast was excellent.

It's old and worn out....no wi-fi in rooms, just wired. You may not be able to close your door in the room, so wind will be blowing throughout the night. Bring earplugs, just in case...

The food was poor at the hotel. Why did someone shoot fireworks constantly outside the hotell around the clock? Very annoying! I think the hotel was 4 stars not 5. At least according to European standards the hotel is only 4 stars.

Very easy to talk to them. Mostly relax and laid back approach.

Breakfast. It was kind of very low profile for a hotel rated 5 stars

Would like some better oatmeal for breakfast

O café da manhã

Vista privilegiada para o mar

O que eu mais gostei no Bahia Othon Palace foi da vista pelas sacadas do mar, do amanhecer e entardecer. Excelente café da manhã.

Não notei diferença alguma para um hotel 3 estrelas.

Como eu estava em um evento no próprio hotel, facilitou muito a minha permanência e a estrutura do evento também foi boa

O hotel está precisando de ser reformado.

Hotel agréable mais qui aurai besoin d'un coup de peinture neuve

Boa recepção de manobrista e baianas no restaurante; boa cama.

o café da manhã no domingo estava ruim, ovos ruins; na segunda foi melhor, mas o leite frio estava azedado;

Do servicos e facilidades

Teve somente um contratempo na recepçao onde a recepcionista indagou a nossa permanencia por apenas 2 dias, sendo que nos ja tinhamos reservado por este brioso site a reserva de 3 dias. Contudo, foi resolvido.
