The location is really great. Just across the Porto da Barra Beach, which has likely the most beautiful sunset I have ever seen. The freshly made tapiocas fir breakfast are a highlight.

One of our top picks in Salvador.Right opposite Praia da Barra Beach, the 4-star Sol Barra offers a central location and great sea views of Baía de Todos os Santos, in the Barra district of Salvador.

Walk along the coastline and discover a wide range of bars and restaurants, or take the bus right opposite the hotel to reach the historic center within a 10-minute ride.

Sol Barra hotel also provides a snack bar and a restaurant, where regional and international dishes are served à la carte.

The nearest airport is Luis Eduardo Magalhães Airport, 15 mi from the property.

Barra is a great choice for travelers interested in beaches, sunsets and old-town exploration.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.1 for a two-person trip.

the hotel is very run down. for a 4star rating it most definitely does not meet the standards and is the high 2.5 Low 3 star rating. it wasn't clean. the mattresses were old. the towel and sheets had stains on and were far from white. we had a cockroach in our room. the bathroom is small and poorly maintained. it was just not what I expected from this vacation, especially when a friend stayed around the corner for the same price with better facilities and a balcony
The staff were extremely friendly and the hotel is in close proximity to the beach

The facilities were a little bit old, although it didn’t influence all that much on the whole experience, it’s a little bit discouraging entering a room and seeing yellows tainted lampshades and drapes. But the bed and the room were thoroughly clean daily, and the kindness of the staff makes you forget everything about the little things.

Outdated hotel, but i saw there doing some renovations already on some floors. Everything is clean and confortable, but for 4 stars they'll have to give it a refreshment like replacing the torn curtain in our room. TV is very small and poor quality. But i'm here to enjoy Salvador and not my hotel room so it didn't bother me.

- • Leisure trip

in the morning and afternoon came a truck to bring water to the hotel and stopped close to the pool and let the motor run for hours. lot of noise and pollution close to the area where the guests wanted to relax, in the afternoon there was very loud music at the pool area what disturbed as well, no relax possible in the area, breakfast room with a lot of noise cause of old air condition systems, no windows in the room, breakfast every day the same, breads dry and without taste, even there is a top bakery close to the hotel (Perini), safe lock did not work when we got the room, this should be tested before the guest arrives

My first room was terrible located. I arrived very late from a long haul flight, and probably got the worst room in the building, back-sided, first floor, no view, extremely hot with a non-functioning air conditioner. My request for changing rooms next day was not taken much seriously. I felt so, but I understood that the hotel was fully booked and the employees overwhelmed. They just agreed to change when the problem with the cooling system was confirmed by a technician. They gave me a room with an amazing beach view that helped me to instantly forget the previous trouble.
The location is really great. Just across the Porto da Barra Beach, which has likely the most beautiful sunset I have ever seen. The freshly made tapiocas fir breakfast are a highlight.
