Salvador hotels near Mercado Modelo

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: 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: Casa Amerelindo was a splendid stay in Salvador. You are in the center of the most charming part of Pelourinho. It's like having front row seats to your anticipated show, outing, etc. Situated on a lovely street, with cute little shops, close to the square, to great restaurants and access to live music all day long. The staff were pros, kind and very attentive. As a solo traveler I felt at ease, very welcome and enjoyed my room. Highly recommend this part of town if you like being in the heart of things. And great breakfast!

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

Pros: Hotel has the perfect location to historic landmarks in the Pelourinho area , great restaurants , nightlife , souvenir stores . Most friendly staff & owner that go beyond to meet our needs , we felt so pampered , & felt safe throughout our stay . Beautiful, very clean hotel with the balcony terrace .

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: I had the pleasure of saying at this lovely hotel for 3 nights in early October 2019 at the total cost of around R$1750, including breakfast. I had a lovely bay-facing room which was beautifully appointed and spacious, and contained a huge, double king-size bed - a little strange to get used to. Excellent bathroom facilities, with various shower options, a double sink and bidet, with generous quality linen. The hotel is beautifully decorated in all respects. It is very well situated just off the main square of Pelourinho, overlooking the beautiful bay, within easy walking distance of most sights in that part of the city. The hotel has a small but delightful pool. Breakfasts were served by hand in the lovely restaurant, the only one which I experienced as a non-buffet, with large poritons of fruit, breads, juices, eggs and cakes. I had dinner one night at the hotel which was very good; there is an extensive and unusual menu, very reasonably priced.

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

Pros: Really friendly staff, great restaurant and facilities. The swimming pool area is really peaceful and great to head to for a few hours after you've explored the city. The hotel is also in a great location and on the doorstep of the old town.

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: 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!

Pros: Breakfast in bed, helpful staff, gave us luggage storage on check out. Enormous mirror for getting ready in room.

Pros: Almost everything

Pros: Nada
