The hotel is located in a good area. There are lots of restaurants and bars walking distance. In addition, the hotel has a great rooftop with a beautiful view to the ocean and you can watch the sunset. Luiza from the reception desk has provided great recommendation. Breakfast is great, but I would recommend to be more attentive with the room since it was cleaned around 5 pm and the toilet paper wasn't enough for one night.

I enjoyed myself at Novotel in Salvador where I stayed for 1 week. Great location with plenty of restaurants and music and great buffet and very kind staff who went out of their way to accommodate me. There is a shuttle car that takes guests up the hill where the hotel is located. Great rooftop bar and pool with beautiful sunset views. They are busy painting some floors of the hotel but very accommodating if you are uncomfortable. I can’t wait to return!

The Room had a fantastic sea view and was very clean. Outstanding breakfast with plenty of options (the Lady that does the Tapioca and the Omelets lives up to her legacy of being super nice and doing fantastic Tapioca) All staff was nice and helpful. Swimming pool on the roof top was very clean.

The staff were fantastic 10/10. The location was fun, with things happening all around. Such a fantastic vibe. The breakfast was ok, with a lot of options; however, any other meals were mediocre, taking a long time to be served even when no other guests were in the restaurant. The gym was very small and the equipment in poor condition and the pool was often dirty with algae and things floating in it. The view, however, made everything better!

Beautiful property. Had some issues with the shuttle that dropped you down on the street as it didn't show up when we were told it would be. Am still waiting on a refund for a double charge after 3 weeks and the hotel has yet to reply regarding it.

The view is gorgeous. The service staff was accommodating. However, the initial room we were put in had puddles of water under and beside the bed. Apparently, a technician had been there earlier to fix the air conditioner and that was the cause of the water puddles. Still, once we turned on the a/c, the water began to pour out like it was from a faucet. Also, upon using the bathroom sink, we found that it was clogged. The room that we were moved to was smaller, but in better condition. By the time we were able to get this new room, we were too exhausted to enjoy. The next day , we were inconvenienced by being locked out of the room for half an hour because the key cards wouldn’t work . So, my fiancé needed, once again, needed to go to the front desk to fix the key card. Upon entering the room, my fiancé couldn’t retrieve her items from the safe because it wouldn’t unlock . She had to wait quite a while before maintenance brought a physical key. This was my first time staying at a Novotel property and it has left a bad impression in my mind. However, the service staff in cleaning and room service were excellent. The security guard was awesome as well.

You can tell the hotel was rebranded or renovated. Some parts are very old and tacky looking, like the area inbetween the your hotel room and the elevator. But the room and the reception area is nice and modern looking. The elevators are small for a big hotel. The pool is small not that modern, the terrace is old and gym pitifully small. The view from my seaside view is good, but right below is not that great. The breakfast is good and varied. Did not order dinner or lunch, as there are better restaurantes to try in Salvador. Would be better if got a stay at a resort or something. Only good parts the location, hotel room, and reception area/breakfast.
