My Niece and I only stayed here 1 night, old saying, "you pays your money, you takes your choice, pictures make it look grand, maybe many years ago! as for staff speaking French/English etc etc, they must have all been off. Put in a wash to be done, had to ask 4 times when it would be ready, as we were checking out, came back WET, and found out later that Traveling towel was missing. If you want cheap local. this is for you.

Pousada Portas da Amazônia was a nice experience in the historical area of São Luís. It was great to stay here and see the historical part of the city. The food served was good and the pousada had a lot of historical details. There are a lot of options within walking distance to eat, shop, and other activities. We loved seeing the history from the city firsthand.

A propriedade é muito bonita e bem conservada. Os atendentes foram atenciosos e educados. O Centro Histórico de São Luís está abandonado, mas ainda é um lugar lindo e cheio de cultura.

Essa eh a primeira pousada/hotel que visito em minha vida em que tive que comprar sabão para poder tomar banho. Tb não havia shampoo nos banheiros. Toalha de rosto estava encardida. Parede do quarto estava suja próxima a cabeceira (precisa de nova pintura). Esperava mais pelo preço pago.

The property is fine, the breakfast is ok, the staff is friendly. The problem is that the pousada is on a street with no car access. The is not disclose when I make the reservation. The taxi left the guesses 2 blocks away, and this is a bad situation because we have to carry our baggage in the street. Next day we have a pickup for to go to Barreirinhas and again the problem, we have to drag our luggage 4 blocks away because no cars at the street. Never more i will stay or recommend this place.

I Loved the rustic rooms and the antique ambiance that I experienced at this beautiful hotel!! Nestled in a sweet little town in São Luis, on a beautiful cobblestone road that took me back in time to a moment when life was more simple and peaceful! I will definitely be staying here again when I return to Brazil!!!
