Top Praça da Sé Hotel Reviews

Fera Palace Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is in the best location to walk to all the sites. The room was clean and very comfortable. The staff was pleasant and very helpful."

Hotel da Bahia by Wish

8/10 Good

"O hotel é muito bom, porém o quarto que fiquei, a iluminação é difusa, e como tem um prédio muito próximo, as cortinas tem que ficar fechadas."

Pousada da Mangueira

10/10 Excellent

"We absolutely LOVED this place. Absolutely beautiful historic looking building, great outdoor space wuth water fountain, garden and pool. Delicious breakfast with so many options including fresh local fruit juices, eggs, etc. rooms were wonderful and squeaky clean. Staff was incredibly helpful - thank you so much! 🙏Very central location, walking distance to the Pelourinho historic Center. Fantastic Pousada!"

Hotel Villa Bahia

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location with very friendly and helpful staff and a very charming feel to the hotel. Breakfast was also excellent! We loved our stay and would definitely come back."

Casa do Amarelindo

8/10 Good

"Breakfast was okay. Bakery goods were a little dry."

Laranjeiras Hostel

8/10 Good

"Great value and comfy as solo woman traveler. Helpful and responsive staff. The bathrooms stay clean even though they’re shared with the other women on the floor. Breakfast is simple. As a vegetarian I stacked up on the fruits and they cook fresh eggs. My hostel roommates were nice and from other places in the world. 24 hour service and the taxi was helpful when I arrived at 1:30am to Salvador. There are nice common areas to meet other people. It would be nice for Lanranjeiras to have games on hand for people to play. And there would be music into the night but I didn’t mind but something to consider if you’re sensitive to sound. The AC unit works great and kept the room very cool. Overall, this was a great stay."

Origem Bahia

10/10 Excellent

"Great place! Great deal. Clean, safe, nice breakfast, wonderful staff, hot water in shower, & smack in the heart of Pelhourino. So yes, be prepared for weekend music outside window until midnight & then some street noise. But was fine for me. (No elevator but staff help carry stuff upstairs.) I'd gladly stay again."

Bahiacafe Hotel

8/10 Good

"The big win for this hotel is the location, in the heart of the historic district. It's incredibly easy to get around on foot to many of the top visitor sights and sites as well as some great restaurants across different price points. It's also excellent value and the staff are really great and incredibly helpful and pro-active."

Pousada Solar dos Romanos

10/10 Excellent

"2 noce, i obie w różnych pokojach. Pierwsza noc w pokoju z widokiem na zatokę, druga z balkonami z widokiem na ulicę. Obiekt, stary, kolonialny z historią, ma swój niepowtarzalny urok ale też i wady z racji na swoją historię. W momencie arę czysty, bez robactwa, i z wspaniałym śniadaniem. Minusy są 2, w obu pokojach, klimatyzacja ledwo chłodziła, cały czas był przy tej temperaturze, zaduch w pokoju. Drugi minus, to osoba z rannej zł aby za biurkiem. Patrzył na wszystko jak policjant, podczas śniadania jego wzrok powodowal że nie wiedzieliśmy czy możemy jeść czy nie. Wydaje mi się że taka postawa może zniechęcić klientów, sami niejednokrotnie zastanawialiśmy się czy nie zmienić hotelu bo źle się czuliśmy w jego obecności. "
