Salvador hotels near Praça da Sé

Pros: The hotel is nice, clean and the staff friendly and helfull. The hotel has some reception staff able to speak english and spanish. My room was in the 3rt floor (number IX) had a confortable bed, with good quality of pillows. Tv and wifi are both available in all rooms. Good room service and a nice restaurant in the first floor. The hotel is located in a historical part of the city. If you prefer a beach hotel, you can stay in the modern part of the city and visit the old town in a half day tour. Churches and oldbulding are really nice and look like a small old Lisbon. The Salvador´s old town is safe enough taking the normal precautions. In many streets are police officers protecting tourists. You can take some private tours but is cheaper if you join to a "colective tour" with some of the many agencies located around the San Francisco Church and main square. I went to Guarajuba beach with "Cassi turismo". The bus was a modern and clean one and the service was cheap and basic but you have 2 or 3 hours alone to enjoy a beach day.

Pros: It was beautifully renovated with spacious rooms and a wonderful outlook over the bay.

Pros: Breakfast difficult as one guy serving all tables in rotation. Two glasses of juice not necessary. A lot of bread and cakes. A small buffet would be so much better where you could help yourself to food you wanted e.g. more fruit less carbs. Location amazing, couldn’t be better! Great staff, friendly, helpful, charming.

Pros: Excellent location in the heart of the historic centre. Staff are extremely helpful from restaurant bookings, buying theatre tickets, arranging trips , general advice etc and speaking excellent English. Lovely roof top bar and swimming pool area with fabulous views. Despite being at the front of the hotel no noise/music from the street outside was heard.

Pros: Unsurpassable location in a pedestrianised [except for airport transfer] street. A short walking distance from all of the main city centre sights. Staff exceptionally helpful and friendly. Great rooftop top with a pool and stunning views. And a massive set breakfast that will keep you going all day---if you want to leave room for lunch or supper do not have all of the breakfast. A very happening bar [on some nights--Tuesday in my case] across the street!!!

Pros: I stayed for seven nights during Copa America and highly recommend Casa do Amerilindo. The area of Pelourinho is small but the hotel is in a very safe location. The room and decor was very nice and the bathroom has a wonderful rain shower. The location was perfectly situated on a main Street with performers appearing right outside the hotel. (The rooms are sound proofed so you won't be disturbed by any noise if you want to sleep in). Beautiful views of the bay but it rained daily so I didn't take any meals on the terrace. However, the best part of my visit was the staff. Luis the front desk receptionist is a lovely man who was incredibly helpful, genuine and went out of his way to make me feel welcome. Adam offered lots of tips on getting around and always greeted guests with a smile. Both Luis and Adam speak impeccable English and Spanish. The dining room staff was very professional and the dinner options are quite good.

Pros: Excellent room with views. Beautiful decoration. Polite staff.

Pros: The staff are amazing - friendly, helpful, and engaging. Can't beat the location, just a block from the main square. The food and service in the restaurant are also great.

Pros: We made a last minute booking as our plans changed and we found ourselves in Salvador for an extra night. The location was great, in a lovely part of the city. The staff were so kind and our room and the hotel facilities exceeded expectations. The restaurant was also great, we really enjoyed our dinner and the breakfast. We loved our stay here!

Pros: Amazing hotel. Best location and great restaurant. Didn’t want to leave.

Pros: The staff was extremely friendly, attentive and genuinely wanted to make the stay memorable. The hotel was very stylish, open and airy. The small pol area was beautiful.

Pros: Everything

Pros: Great location, close to colonial center in a relaxed and safe location

Pros: Smart hotel with gorgeous rooms

Pros: Wonderful staff and hotel. The breakfast is amazing!! Interior design and home decoration, home design decor and decorating, are really exceptional and time seems to be stopped here. It feels like there's a spiritual touch in the room and it has no value. I highly recommend and will go back there :)

Pros: Just a short walk from the historic city centre, this is a real boutique hotel find. It’s tiny and cozy, staff are very charming. Breakfast is fantastic! The old city is tired but beautiful, very vibrant with lots of music and dancing (at the weekend at least), bars and restaurants to hang out in. Apparently it is not that safe at night but during the day and weekend evenings it was fine for us with teenagers and sticking together

Pros: Hotel has great design and large rooms. Beautiful views of the water from the bar area and the pool. Had an excellent massage during my stay. Staff was very accommodating, especially Daniel and Claudio. We will be back!

Pros: The staff were phenomenal, especially Claudio who gave us a detailed colour coded map of area with tips on sights, museums, places to eat and safety. He recommended a brilliant churriscaria. We were able to avail of the facilities, pool and shower after check out. The caipirinhas served by the pool were super too. Claudio went above and beyond his role of manager and helped us resolve an issue we had with a flight. He is a consummate professional who truly cares about his guest's experience at the hotel and Brazil.

Pros: The location near the port, where boats to Morro do São Paulo leave.

Pros: The location is good but the room is very small and old.

Pros: Never mind the ugly and inconspicuous front door: the hotel is gorgeous. It has an old colonial style, and it shows throughout. Beautiful original furniture, dazzling original wooden boarded floor, and a magnificent upper-floor staircase that´s just spectacular! Location is just fantastic. Mere meters away from Sé Square, the Pelourinho, Elevador Lacerda, Mercado Modelo (via the Lacerda Lift, of course) and many of the other foremost historic fixtures of the city. The area SEEMS a bit shady and insecure, especially at night, but police are ALWAYS nearby, and you will be completely safe, so long as you stay in the tourist trail. You can even "relax" a bit with your phone and camera because the area is really well-patrolled. Of course, pickpockets are a thing as in any touristic area, so watch out for sneaky types, more than robbers or other violent hazards. The view from the terrace is top-notch. You can alllllllmost see the Elevador Lacerda (just its tip, but it´s nice to realize it´s just around the corner), and you get an amazing view of the fort, the Navy station, the Mercado Modelo and a boat dock from the port. There is a roof below that's not properly beautiful, but it´s just how Salvador is: the gorgeous and the ugly go hand in hand. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. They go as far as making cute little jokes all the time, and the go out of their way to make conversation as best as they can. They´re very informative as well.

Pros: Booked my room in the middle of the night because of some home rental problems and the staff was super kind and arranged us a nice room with a view to the sea! It was a happy ending to a terrible night!
