The room was not clean and the general maintenance, the mattress for example was very old and was not in good shape.
the staff was very kind and supportative.
Historic building with a lot of character and well-maintained. Rooms were clean and adequately spacious. Staff were incredibly helpful and courteous. Breakfast provided a good variety of local options. Would definitely stay here again if ever in Salvador in the future!
Beautiful colonial hotel. Excellent breakbast and rooms (with patios and garden).
The staff was was always nice, and helping us.
The neighbourhood is safe, with a lot of options. Paciencia beach very near.
Excellent!
It started off kind of awkward since we had to wait three hours for our water to be working in our room because of a leak in our bathroom. But the hotel staff were nice, and they explained that it would be done as soon as possible. However, on our second to last day, we were told that they needed to fix the leak again and we had to go to another room which was much smaller and not even close to the nice view we had in our original room. We mentioned that the water leak really didn't bother us. It was a just a tiny leak in the bathroom next to the toilet. So the hotel agreed we could stay in your original room for one more night if we want and then we would move into a room very much like the one we had the next morning. And we agreed, but my fiance noticed that leak was coming from the tank on the toilet, and she took a little plastic trash can in the room and put it underneath the toilet to catch the drip and it solved the whole problem there. We just had to monitor it for a little while and keep our great room. So luckily the hotel was okay with that. We didn't really want to pack up everything and move to another room. We were very comfortable in the room I had originally reserved. Other than that, everything was great. Breakfast was adequate; we didn't really want a giant buffet so it was as expected when I booked the room. Back to the view, it was probably the best view of any rooms. My fiance and I have a slew of awesome pictures from that room. Beautiful hotel!
O hotel funciona num casarão histórico super charmoso, bem no coração do bairro Rio Vermelho. Tem tudo perto. O atendimento de toda a equipe é excelente. A segurança é 24 horas. O café da manhã é sensacional, produtos regionais de muita qualidade. Uma das melhores experiências de hospedagem que já vivenciei.
Excelente serviço. Instalações muito boas, tudo limpo, organizado e confortável. A localização é excelente, muitos bares, restaurantes, e os melhores acarajés acessíveis a pé. Vale a experiência!
Muito boa a minha hospedagem no Hotel Catharina Paraguaçu!
Localiza ção perfeita, hotel muito limpo, café da manhã bom, equipe de funcionários muito atenciosos!

Hotel Antigo, bem próximo a Praia e restaurantes .
Equipe de funcionários excelente, comodidades e condições da acomodação muito boas. Café da manhã compacto, mas muito variado. A nossa sugestão é melhorar o isolamento acústico do quarto, pois especificamente nosso quarto era muito barulhento, durante toda a noite/madrugada deixando entrar som e barulho da rua (voltado para a praia/Largo de Santana).
A estadia foi excelente. trata-se de uma casa antiga, restaurada.
As instalações atendem bem, apenas alguns itens de manutencao devem ser revistos. no nosso quarto uma luminaria central nao acendia e a porta fazia o maior rangido para abrir e fechar.
Banho bom, e toalhas maravilhosas.
A equipe super gentil e prestativa. pedimos um cafezinho fora de hora e as meninas formas extremamente gentis.
Cafe da manha muito bom tambem.
Localização excelente.
Super indicio!
Excelente experiência. O hotel é muito bem localizado, próximo a bares e restaurantes. A equipe do hotel muito educada e solicita. Café da manhã bem gostoso e com uma boa variedade. Quarto bem limpo, ar condicionado funcionando bem. Vi muitos comentários falando sobre o barulho por conta dos bares próximos, mas achei bem tranquilo.
O hotel é bem bonito com vários azulejos e colorido. O quarto tem um bom tamanho e super atende a um casal. O café da manhã é bom com opções de frutas, doces, pães, incluindo pão delícia, e salgados.
Os atendentes foram super atenciosos e prestativos.
Apesar de estar localizado em uma região boêmia, e naturalmente mais barulhenta, os quartos oferecem uma boa proteção acústica e quase não ouvimos barulhos externos (algumas vezes escutávamos do banheiro), mas não era algo que incomodava.
A única questão negativa que tenho a acrescentar é a TV e o funcionamento de controles. A TV não estava funcionando direito e era muito difícil mudar de canal e assistir qualquer coisa em streaming (apesar de estar escrito que os quartos tinham smartv). E o controle do ar condicionado funcionava muito mal também e tornou um pouco difícil trocar de temperatura. Mas são questões pequenas perto da boa experiência que tivemos na estadia.
Foi um achado incrível. Hotel lindo, cheio de personalidade, muito limpo e com uma equipe muito simpática. O quarto é super aconchegante; você se sente realmente no clima praiano. Recomendo muito!
Très joli hôtel d’époque de taille agréable et décoré avec soin. Très bien situé pour se déplacer à pied à quelques minutes de la plage des restos et cafés. Un petit oasis étonnamment tranquille au centre de l’action. Salle de bain étroite comparé aux standards modernes, mais mais très jolie et fonctionnelle. Il y a même une planche à repasser intégrée dans le mur! Je recommande chaudement.
