Grande Hotel da Barra

location is great! water pressure in the shower is awesome.

the elevator buttons didn’t work well, you have to press really hard for it to work. bathroom flush is really bad. If you have long nails get ready for them to break trying to flush.

Fantastic location in an area that is both safe and beautiful. There are lots of shops, bars, restaurants and things to see and do nearby. The pictures of the pool don't do it justice as it is much bigger than I'd thought. There's a plentiful range of choice for breakfast with different options on rotation all of which were interesting and good quality.the room was excellent and well worth the premium for the sea view. Staff were friendly and helpful and the hotel is spotlessly clean.

Nothing

I have no bad things to say about the hotel. Rooms are very spacious and comfortable, breakfast is more than great (and you can enjoy it by the pool), the pool is good with a bar nearby and the location is just perfect: in a safe neighborhood that is busy with bars and restaurantes within walking distance, right on the beach and just an Uber away from the main attraction. I highly recommend this hotel for those visiting Salvador!

The pool is really amazing, big and with different depths. Comfortable bed. There is a nice gym, quite big. The location is very popular, in the middle of the turistic area, many restaurants, bars around and the beach is in front of the hotel.

The hotel is quite old, should be renovated. The isolation is terrible, we heard everything from the street. The breakfast selection is okayish, no plant based milk options. The shower was hard to adjust and properly close. No minibar in the room and no iron or steamer available.

The hotel is very well located with plenty of options nearby (restaurants, shops, cafes, pharmacies, supermarkets, etc). The beach is nice and vibrant. The staff is super friendly and helpful.

I appreciate the local cuisine but the breakfast could include healthier options. There could be more fruit, non-dairy milk, berries, etc.

Across a nice, lively the beach. Nice swimming pool area. Good breakfast. Next to plenty of eateries and convenient stores. Short ride to historic downtown.

Despite being on a third floor and since public smoking is allowed in Brazil, at nigh some non-volunteering second hand smoking from the street happened, through the shower fixed open window system.

The location is awesome and the amenities are very good, mainly the pool where the children loved. The breakfast was very good and the room confortable.

Just the breakfast we expected more, mainly with the Bahia food, which is really rich. In general it was very good and it could be improved for sure.

the location is great - love the beach and sunset. breakfast also it was good. love the shower - very strong . the only think they should improve is maybe faucet in the hotel entrance for wash your feet from the beach sand🤔🤓 towels also need a little tlc

the noise outside sometimes can be loud.

Was the best location for us, close to all touristic places, was not difficult or expensive to get an Uber to get to centre of town. I’m front of Barra beach which is the best of the city and surrounded by many good restaurants and bars. I would definitely stay here if I come back to salvador.

They could inform better about COVID regulations and updates, beaches were closed on Sunday but they didn’t tell us and we programmed our plans to enjoy beach on Sunday, at the end beach was closed and we wasted that day. If we knew about this we could change our plans to go to beach on Saturday and go downtown on Sunday.

Perfect Location with beautiful view of the beach, most delicious breakfast, comfortable rooms. Very friendly staff and super convenient: it's possible to exchange money at reception.

There were small ants in the bathroom.
