The hostel, newly opened in January 2011, combines the charm of a historical building (restored facade in the style of the 19th century) with modern comfort inside (decoration in Art-Deco colors and smith-iron grids). On the top floor there is a terrace from which you have a privileged view of the oldest part of the city of Salvador.
Guests can relax in our patio, enjoy the swimming pool and the hostel bar. We also offer free internet and Wi-Fi access. Our staff gladly gives you information and recommendations to help you explore the city and/or plan your tourist excursions.
The Hostel Barroco has 36 beds (bunk beds in 6-beds-rooms); each room has its own bathroom. In the rooms (maximum allocation with 6 persons) there is a locker for every guest. The bed linen and two towels are put by the hostel (already included in the overnight stay price). For the ladies we have reserved on the 2nd floor our most beautiful room - with balcony - as a ' Women Only '-Room.
