“Nice enough but watch the water (in both senses!)”
4 of 5 stars

Aging "luxury" hotel, about 3-star standard in the US. Nice and spacious lobby where they make a pretty good caipirinha. Great panoramic ocean views. The neighboring area is fairly safe, but some members of a conference I was attending were robbed in the neighborhood. One distinct shortcoming is that the hotel's water is NOT safe to drink and the hotel... more

Stayed for three nights with my wife and son. It's a big hotel with intense moviment at the the lobby, because is very demanded by tourists groups. Great location, in the Rio Vermelho neighbourhood, close to main city's attractions. Large and spacious rooms , but the hotel, in a generalized manner, seems a little aged, mainly in the common areas,... more

I recently completed a one week stay at the Pestana. I am very happy with my experience. The property is located perfectly so that each room has an ocean view. I did have access to the 23rd. floor breakfast room and it was indeed fabulous. The variety of items on the buffet was generous and it changed just enough each... more

Last week I stayed at this hotel for two days. It was a business trip, when I would not have any time for enjoying hotel facilities. The only moment I had to enjoy the hotel was breakfast time. Amongst the options sent for my travel agency I found this hotel, and reading about it at Trip Advisor, I was attracted... more

When you see the hotel from the outside it looks kind of old and dated, who cares how it looks in the outside when the inside is really comfortable. The lobby has the feel of a beach hotel, the rooms have been fully remodeled, comfortable with beautiful views. The hotel is up on a cliff over looking the sea with... more

I was in Pestana Bahia for 7 nights in April. I was welcomed with the executive breakfast, this breakfast is taken in the 23 floor, with a breathtaking view. The service is much ,much better. We have an egg-station, where you can have scrambled eggs, omelettes, and lots of other things. The hotel is very big, as a wonderful location,... more

You will want one of the deluxe rooms as those are the ones that have been refurbished and are on a higher floor. Think about getting a room facing west if you want to catch the sunset, which is spectacular. Be aware that the balconies are not really more than french windows with a ledge outside - you can step... more

I was here on business this week for a three night stay. the breakfast views in the panoramic restaurant on the top floor were breathtaking. The food was varied and also good quality in hot and cold.
