Overall Ratings & Reviews Pousada Colonial Chile

Could be better

AC was leaking all over the wall and the floor. They sent someone to fix it but it was leaking during my whole stay. They did offer to change my room but I was already settled in and said no. They did make the bed and change the towels every day. Breakfast was lackluster but included with the stay. Other guests were extremely noisy when walking up and down the stairs, especially the kids who were vocally loud as well while running up and down the stairs.

The property has the charm of a time long gone. Unfortunately, it is also quite old. We had living cockroaches and ants in our bathroom and bedroom. Moreover, our room was adjacent to the street. The noise of traffic woke us up multiple times at night due to the poor insulation of the old windows and walls. On a positive note, the breakfast was good, the location is good, and you have some great views of the old Harbour and Fortress. Finally, the employees at the check-in were nice and very helpful.

This property is not for you if you seek comfort, infrastructure and service. It is super basic, almost spartan and suitable for young backpackers traveling on a tight budget and only looking for a place to drop off bags and sleep. Room 24 is like a jail cell: small. Tiny bathroom, no view. Two slivers of soap. Breakfast? Mediocre. Any redeeming qualities? Just the location.

The neighborhood and restaurants around

Very friendly and helpful staff. Clean and comfortable. Very safe and walkable. Great breakfast! Highly recommended!

This is an old building that has been somewhat restored. It still needs a lot of work. The matress was not comfortable. However, the location is fantastic; just a few blocks from main sights. And the view from the terrace is great.

Bem localizada, belo casarão colonial, mas péssimo isolamento acústico (o ar condicionado dos prédios próximos pareciam estar dentro do nosso quarto).

Convenient to Pelourinho and the elevator and the historical part of Salvador.

Location & friendly staff Great views Been there many times hope to come back again

our 2nd time ,we loved there . we will go back great breakfast great staff

Not easy to find parking. Not very clean. But, close to historical sites.

Good standard - good location - helpful staff - got us to the Airport on time and had time for shopping on the same day!

Hotel location

Poor choice. Put it this way, even though I paid for 3 nights (non-refundable), I chose to leave after just 1 night and stay another nearby hotel that was FAR better and only $15 more per night. My issues: Room had a strong musty/moldy smell, A/C couldn't come close to cooling the room, wifi wouldn't work from the room (only the lobby), furnishings were very old, only one small towel in the bathroom. On top of that, breakfast was mediocre and the coffee (delicious everywhere else I've been in Brazil) was pretty awful. All that said, the room was at least clean, and the ocean view from the breakfast room is outstanding.

Had a very pleasant stay....the people working at the hotel were very nice. it is an older property and the rooms are small, but very clean and well worth the money.Nice breakfast which is included in a wonderful breakfast room .the hotel is located on the edge of the old town but safety could be a concern in the evening.

Prices ramped up for World Cup but pleasant accommodation on 'Vintage' hotel. Good amenities and especially breakfast! Excellent location

I loved stay in this hotel with my family, the hotel is amazing, his located is great, also the room that we stay have a wonderful viem to the ocean. All the employees are very nice and help us in all we need. I just love all my time there it was amazing.

Perfect location, near Lacerda Elevator, Placa da Sé and Pelourinho. The hotel is in the 2nd and 3rd floor and no elevator are there, so you should climb the stairs...

I would say for this hotel "only the location is perfect, the rest is very ordinary!" If you are OK to see old city you can choose this hotel...
