Amazing location and wonderful staff. The breakfast was also great. The hotel is walking distance to many attractions in Rio Vermelho, which is a fabulous neighborhood.

Maria United States of America

Nice colonial style hotel in very safe street lots of options nearby to visit and many restaurants and bars all around. Lovely staff, too.

Jelena Brazil

The staff was friendly and very helpful. I got sick and one of the ladies even made me tea and brought it for me in the room. They were all lovely. The bed and pillows super comfortable, the hotel is beautiful and has a lot of original artwork, which I appreciate. Breakfast was rich, fresh and delicious (even for me, a vegan!)

I particularly like the design and decorative features of the facilities. Room was large and accommodating. Breakfast was great with a variety of foods.

Mary Brazil

Perfect location in the coolest neighborhood of Salvador - Rio Vermelho. Best bars and restaurants are a short walk from the hotel. Rooms are comfortably set in a beautiful old house refurbished with a new pavilion. Breakfast is great and staff is very kind. Second time here and I wouldn't stay anywhere else in Salvador.

Marianna and Sheila and all the staff are awesome 👏
