Pais Tropical is the best hostel that I've stayed in my Brazilian tour. Really great location in the heart of Pelourihno. But not this is most important. The atmosphere of this place, the people who are really helpful, full of positive energy. Hostel has very good breakfast, everything was working and it was clean. It was a big pleasure to... More

Very friendly, great localization and very affordable. Ania, Alexandre and Felipe are very helpful and make you feel at home, in a good and at-easy way. It's clean, great breakfast and again, the people are always helpful and explain anything you need to know about the city.

Top location, right on Pelourinho square. The breakfast was very good, they serve best fruit juices we've tried in Brazil. We stayed in private room nr 5 and it was lovely, we loved vintage floral bed sheets. Plus very friendly people, Anna and Alexandre were always ready to help us with a smile on their face.

Pais Tropical is very conveniently located, has good breakfast, and there's nothing is lacking in terms of facilities. Overall, there's no reason not to stay here. However, while the place is definitely not dirty or uncomfortable, it is a little run-down compared to all other places I've stayed in Brazil. A tiny brush-up and a little more character, and it's...

The best aspect is the location: in Largo do Pelourinho, the heart of Pelourinho, in front of Musem da Cidade e Jorge Amado Museum, and at 50 meters from Teatro Santana. The best position that you could have in Salvador. Rooms clean, staff kind and helpful, free wi-fi and two PC available for guests. The breakfast is good and plentiful.... More

Fantastic Hostel placed in a heart of Salvador. The view from window is great and you can experience there the soul of Salvador. Tasty breakfast ( includes fruits and eggs), lockers for luggage in room and clean toilets. Very kind and helpful stuff. I could be in Salvador only 2,5 day and it was the best solution for me.

Great location in the middle of historical center, gives You possibility to feel the atmosphere of the Brazilian city. The place is excellent for open people, looking for fun rather than quiet. The music is all around, concerts, lessons, parades etc. The Pousada itself is nicely painted and offers a good various breakfast. There is a kitchen to be used.... More

First I want to mention that there’s a Samba/Percussion school on the bottom floor of this building. Loud--very loud music was often played non-stop between 10am-7pm and could be heard throughout the pousada. The variety at breakfast was good and the eating area was a fun place to chat & meet people. As another reviewer mentioned, I also had the... More

When you rent Simples Room in the "Booking" or "hostelworld" is informed that kind of room has no window. We have two simple rooms without windows, but we have also two superior rooms with two windows in each room. Please take more attention when making the booking. You should read the description of the room before you rent it. About... More

This Pousada is in an amazing location, right in the centre of Pelourinho. The owner is a great guy - really welcoming and helpful, and the atmostphere was relaxed and friendly. I had a room to myself with an en suite which was clean and quiet, although it is probably noisier if you have a room with a (beautiful) view... More
