Restored Art Deco landmark
Restored Art Deco architecture sets a breezy rhythm, drawing guests from the lively historic square to quiet coastal views.
“Hotel Fasano Salvador sits in the headquarters of a former newspaper and overlooks the Bay of All Saints, and the nearby Art Deco Fera Palace...”

What they say
One Michelin Key

Inside, the entry and lobby continue in a beautifully restored Art Deco vein, while, as you get into more private spaces like the spa, restaurant, and rooms and suites, a sleeker, more modern aspect emerges.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Anchoring Praça Castro Alves, the hotel places guests steps from Pelourinho's cobblestone streets and vibrant Afro-Brazilian culture.
The rooms
Parquet flooring and dark jacaranda wood frame the bedrooms, while marble-clad bathrooms feature deep soaking tubs and rainfall showers.
The rooftop pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Azul Bahia granite clads the rooftop pool, looking out across the waters of the Bay of All Saints.
The spa
Treatments draw on regional botanicals with rituals curated by Fabrícia Nogueira, alongside saunas and steam rooms.
The gym
Cardio machines and treadmills sit along floor-to-ceiling glass looking out toward outdoor terrace greenery.
Dogs stay too.
Restaurant
Restaurante Fasano
Heritage Italian pastas and Bahian moquecas share the menu under the dining room's warm jacaranda columns.
At the table
Drinks flow between the ground-floor lobby lounge and the open-air rooftop bar overlooking the bay.
How it began
Built in the 1930s as the headquarters for newspaper A Tarde, the landmark was inaugurated with a Caetano Veloso performance.
