Pousada do Pilar

Frommer's Review

One of the "newcomers" to Pelourinho is the Pousada do Pilar. The beautiful heritage building has been gutted and renovated, giving rooms a modern feel and bringing them fully up to modern standards. All 12 rooms are huge and come with all the modern facilities such as air-conditioning, nice en-suite bathrooms, and good lighting. Seven of the rooms have a veranda and face out over the port and the ocean. The remaining five rooms have a small balcony (standing room only) and look out over the street. A wonderful breakfast with regional cakes and foods is served on the rooftop patio overlooking Salvador's waterfront. The location of the pousada is perfect for exploring Pelourinho; the main square is only a 10-minute walk downhill. At press time the hotel did not accept credit cards and the cable TV included only Brazilian channels.
