I loved everything: the thoughtfulness of Augusta and her team, the exceptional breakfasts, the extreme cleanliness of the house, the very good taste in the decoration. The house and the rooms are better than in the photos. The location is ideal for shopping, going to the beach or visiting the museums of the very chic Barra district.

The building itself is just beautiful and although it has all the facilities you’d expect of a hotel of this kind, its historic character has been preserved. I understand that rooms are gradually being upgraded – I was lucky to be in one of the first. The room was large, incredibly comfortable and with a wonderful view of the Igreja de São Francisco. The pool is small but a bonus. Breakfast was excellent. The staff – from the receptionist, management, cleaners and in the breakfast area were all very friendly, kind and efficient.

There wasn’t anything to fault with the Aram Yami hotel. The staff are absolutely incredible - attentive, informative and knowledgeable. The morning breakfast was superb - thank you to the kitchen staff who were always smiling! We chose the Bahia Suite which was perfect. Super large, comfortable bed with soft pillows, great A/C, separate shower and toilet and a wonderful view out to the pool. The pool area had stunning views across the bay. Complimentary drink and fruits on arrival. Wish we had more time here. Next time!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Pousada Solar dos Deuses, and it was an experience that surpassed all expectations. From the moment I stepped through the doors, I was met with warm hospitality and a charming atmosphere that set the tone for a wonderful stay. One of the highlights of my visit was the delightful breakfast. The pousada not only offered a local dish but also presented a tantalizing selection of fresh and delicious fruits. It was a refreshing departure from the typical hotel breakfast, and the attention to local flavors added an extra layer of authenticity to the overall experience. The room itself is simple but it was cozy. I took amazing pictures from its balcony. What truly sets Pousada Solar dos Deuses apart, however, is its exceptional staff. The level of service provided was nothing short of amazing. Every staff member I encountered went above and beyond to make me feel at home. Their genuine friendliness and eagerness to assist created a welcoming atmosphere that made my two-night stay truly memorable. The location of the hotel proved to be another highlight. Conveniently situated, it offered easy access to local attractions, dining, and entertainment options. Whether I was exploring the nearby landmarks or simply strolling through the surrounding area, the central location of the hotel added a significant level of convenience to my stay. In conclusion, my time at Pousada Solar dos Deuses was a delightful surprise that exceeded my expectations. I left with a sense of gratitude and a 100% certainty that I will return in the future.

The room was super big and really nice. We were able to enjoy the gym and the view on the top floor. The staff was really nice. Our cleaning lady (Josiane)was especially attentive to our needs and made sure to clean the room while we were just stepping out for an hour, and brought us some items we needed and asked for which made our life much easier.

We stayed in the Suite room with a comfortable King size bed. They added a single bed for my son for only additional 30% charge.

This is a charming small hotel. The beautifully restored original building has five meter ceilings, the new wing is attractively designed. Lovely small courtyard with attractive plants, and two really nice open gardens in front. The neighborhood is quite lively, some good bars and restaurants, and less than a minute walk to the beach.
