The Bahiacafe is a top hotel in Salvador, ideally located in the historic center, with local flavor to its design, an attentive, caring staff and terrific breakfast. Take care, however, to stay elsewhere during big music festivals, such as Sao Joao, in late June, as the hotel faces directly onto the Praca Da Se, where extremely loud music is played until 1 or 2 in the morning.
