Wish Hotel da Bahia

Salvador|1.07km from Praia da Preguiça
My family and I stayed at the Wish with interconnecting rooms in August 2022. This worked really well for us. Lobby area is large and airy with lovely decor. Pool area looked really nice but was not warm enough for us to use. The gym was modern with plenty of choice in equipment. Had some lovely evenings at the bar drinking cocktails made by Mauro. We were allocated rooms on level 11 so we had the perfect view over the city. Just wish the windows had been cleaned. Our view was a little cloudy! On one occasion we had music outside the park for us to listen to! Plus we watched some lads playing soccer. Room sizes were good. Beds were supercosy with good selection of pillows. The decor was a little tired and could do with freshening up. There was a musty damp scent in the room on arrival which we resolved by opening the window. This must be due to the climate where its warm and wet in Winter. Breakfast was lovely each morning with lots of choice. Just wish they had some plant based alternatives. E.g soya milk, margarine etc. Outside the Wish hotel is a park which a huge monument and fountain, if you wish to take a morning stroll/jog. There are council exercise machines next to the childrens playground. We were fortunate to see Capoeira training going on. Other than that there is nothing else. A short cab ride away will take you to Bahia shopping mall - Really good food court on ground floor here - Oriental, Italian and Brazilian. Plus a good place to do a money exchange. Cash is king here guys! The tourist spots like praca da sa, Pelourinho, Rio Vermelho etc are 1.5 miles away. Hotel taxis accept card payments. Which is really convenient. Be prepared to hold on to dear life when taking a random taxi from the street. Some drive like lunatics. Our taxi from airport to hotel was like this. Maybe its worth booking a hotel transfer with Wish. Overall if I could afford the Fasano I would stay there for the luxury plus location,but if you require something more easy on the pocket and away from the madness of the tourist areas, I would choose Wish de Bahia. Many thanks for a wonderful first stay in Salvador. X

Hotel Fasano Salvador
4.6/566 Reviews
The Fasano is truly the personification of a luxury hotel. The centrally located property is a magnificent structure to begin with. All areas are elegantly but not too formally appointed with an air of casual sophistication. The roof top pool and bar area is breathtaking by day and enchanting by night and the adjacent spa small but top notch. My room, a junior suite was large by any standard. It accommodated a beautifully appointed siting, work and sleeping areas and had an exquisite bathroom. The hard wood floor was gorgeous and the bed, linens and amenities top quality. The lighting was subdued and easily controllable. My only complaint was the water temperature at the shower was only cool. I loved the chic staff uniforms and the personnel were effervescent. I only ate breakfast in the restaurant but the buffet was scrumptious. The coffee was remarkable. I thought it a bit odd that you had request smoked salmon rather than have it placed on the buffet. Overall the Fasano fits the bill as a world class luxury Hotel that I highly recssommend.
Hotel Villa Bahia
4.6/563 Reviews
The most charming boutique hotel in the heart of Pelourinho! Both the room and bathroom were beautiful and spacious, with a mini fridge, safe (although ours was broken) and large cupboard. The rooms are named after Portuguese explorers rather than the more common room numbers, which was very fitting for the colonial style interiors of the hotel. Staff were so welcoming and very friendly. Breakfast is served at your table - tick sheet menu - and includes various cereals, drinks, bread, cakes as well as Bahian specialties. There is a small plunge pool, which we didn’t get a chance to use. We couldn’t have asked for a better location; we were able to walk through the historic centre, with both the funicular and elevator serving the lower city close by. Lots of eateries and fantastic musical entertainment right outside the hotel - music stops around 10-10.30pm. It is a short walk across the cobblestones to the main Pelourinho square, which pays homage to Michael Jackson who shot a music video there. A (steepish) walk past the church takes you to the rainbow street of San Antonio, with plenty more restaurant/bar options. Would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommended!

Hotel Sempre Executive
4.2/533 Reviews
Hotel maravilhoso, de cara. Amei a recepção, a supervisora que nos recebeu, muito agradável, receptiva, comunicativa (não lembro o nome da mesma) , nos acolheu muito bem, comida excelente, preço muito bom, café da manhã impecável. Até então, tudo certo ao chegar no hotel, tivemos acesso a nossa suíte, eu e o meu marido amamos, super limpo, ambiente confortável, saímos do quarto e fomos conhecer o hotel, assim que voltamos para o quarto, meu esposo notou que a banheira estava suja de poeira parecendo cinza de cigarro, sendo que antes de sairmos do quarto, estava tudo limpo, sem poeira alguma, ou seja lá o que foi o que estava dentro da banheira.. meu marido ficou intrigado, supondo que alguém poderia ter entrado no quarto, sem que estejamos, mas eu preferir ignorar, preferi acreditar que poderia ter subido do ralo da banheira (impossível, pois o ralo estava fechado) o local onde a água sai da banheira.. continuamos a aproveitar nossa estadia, no check in fomos informados sobre algumas regras, e no quarto tem várias plaquinhas informando algumas regras, tais como “fumar dentro do quarto, será cobrado uma taxa de 60,00) justo!! Até comentei com meu esposo que achei interessante, pq as vezes as pessoas tratam as coisas dos outros com desleixo, quebram e sai do hotel deixando prejuízos, assim ficaria claro que o prejuízo seria pago pelo hóspede, ok! No dia seguinte do check out, fomos acusados de ter fumado dentro da suíte, primeiro foi nos perguntado, e eu logo disse que não fumamos, somos evangélicos e não fazemos o uso do cigarro nem de qualquer bebida alcoólica, e ainda assim fomos acusados, afirmando que sim, tinha cinzas no quarto e até cheiro, um absurdo, uma mentira cabulosa, fiquei decepcionado, muito constrangida, meu esposo rebateu a recepcionista informando o que tinha acontecido sobre encontramos a banheira com sujeira, até sobre a possibilitar de ter entrado alguém no quarto, ela continuou acreditando que fumamos sim dentro do quarto, sai do hotel super frustrada, constrangida e todo meu pensamento de amor pelo hotel, se transformou em raiva, frustração, constrangimento. Enfim, nunca mais voltarei a esse hotel, não quero correr o risco de ser constrangida novamente por pessoas irresponsáveis!
Pousada Bahia Pelô
4.4/545 Reviews
I usually don't stay in a hostel, but I was looking for something near a event where I was, to rest a little before I had to go back to him the night. I didn't regret. The hostel is simple, but very clean and clean. The room is quite airy and pleasant.We stayed in a luxury suit at the 2nd floor.There are no lifts, but I was warned before. Sandra, the manager, did everything and a little more to meet my needs. Super performance. Then I met Natalia, the owner. I'll be sure I'll come back. When I'll have something to do in the Pelourinho, I'll be sure to stay there to spend the night. I'll be sure to make my life a lot easier. They've spoken very well about breakfast, but I didn't take it. There is no vacation to park, so I prefer to go back from Uber, and have a very close restaurant.
Pousada des Arts
4.5/56 Reviews
A beautiful colourful facade reveals an even more colourful, charming and cosy interior. Built in the style of a Mediterranean patio you'll find the rooms upstairs and the common areas with library, sofa lounges and restaurant on the ground floor. Our room faced the small cobblestone street and had everything we needed (bathroom, fridge, AC, wifi). It was calm at night. The breakfast was spectacular. A rich buffet with lots of delicious exotic surprises to the European taste. The view onto the bay was fantastic. Located on a narrow cobblestone street on the northern end of the old town, you'll find most sights within walking range. It's a 15 minutes walk to the escalator with small supermarkets and banks on the way. Down there by the harbour you'll find boats and tour operators to the beaches of Morro de Sao Paulo. If you want to leave the old town you should take a cab. We found the surrounding neighbourhoods pretty dangerous. Pousada de Arts recommends a very nice and reliable driver (Miró) We may want to come back:)
