Casa do Amarelindo

WHY WE LIKE THIS HOTEL

Behind the splendid colonial façade of a 19th century townhouse, the Casa do Amarelindo is a modern boutique hotel at the heart of Salvador’s historic Pelourinho. It offers a tranquil escape from the frenetic pace and energy of Salvador, and melds rich colonial history with modern creature comforts and a chic, Afro-Bahian inspired design. The restaurant comes highly recommended offering a fusion of French and Bahian cuisine and is renowned for its seafood. Equally as popular, the hotel bar overlooks a strip of greenery and offers a heady mix of tropical cocktails – the perfect way to end the day. There is a small deck and plunge pool for cooling off from the afternoon sun – the only one of its kind within the pelourinho – as well as a panoramic rooftop terrace and small gym. The Casa do Amarelindo is an excellent mid-range option in Salvador whose setting is second to none, just metres away from good bars, restaurants and nightlife. Despite its central location, it is insulated from the city bustle and would appeal to couples and honeymooners alike.
