Mais do que um hotel, uma casa no coração do Pelourinho
Pros:

O Villa Bahia é daqueles hotéis que tornam uma viagem ainda mais especial. Um verdadeiro hotel de charme, instalado num edifício de época lindamente recuperado, no coração do Pelourinho, numa localização absolutamente fantástica.
O quarto Goa é simplesmente mágico, cheio de personalidade e com uma vista extraordinária. O pequeno-almoço é divino, preparado com cuidado e cheio de sabores que nos fazem sentir na Bahia.
Mas, acima de tudo, o que torna este hotel verdadeiramente especial são as pessoas. Mais do que hóspedes, fizeram-nos sentir em casa, sempre com uma simpatia, atenção e genuína vontade de bem receber que dificilmente se encontram. Um agradecimento muito especial ao Fernando, à Mari, ao Gabriel e ao Zé Luís, que contribuíram para tornar a nossa estadia inesquecível.
Saímos do Villa Bahia com a sensação de que não estivemos apenas num hotel, mas numa casa onde fomos recebidos de braços abertos.
É, sem dúvida, um daqueles lugares a que apetece voltar.

Charm and distance in the heart of Pelourinho
Pros:

It is a cute boutique hotel with a great location for exploring Pelourinho. The staff is professional.

Cons:

The breakfast is just ok, nothing special. And the staff, while correct, isn’t really warm; sometimes there is subtle sense of distance.
