CONVENTO DO CARMO: A NEW JEWEL IN SALVADOR DA BAHIA!!

The long expected “Convento Do Carmo” opened on the October 1st 2005, in the middle of Pelourinho, the picturesque historical center of Salvador, Bahia's Capital! It is a welcome addition to the hotel accommodation of the city and even the rest of Brazil. The Convento do Carmo belongs to the “Pousadas do Portugal” hotel chain and it is its first property outside of Portugal. The original monastery goes back till 1586. Over the centuries it has been the stage for major historical events and today it is Brazil's first luxury historical hotel.

The striking colonial architecture of the Convento do Carmo blends with graceful furniture and works of art, taking guests back to a more elegant age in its imposing lobby. Its sophisticated services ensure unforgettable experiences for its guests.

Behind the impressive corridors are located the elegantly decorated, 79 rooms and suites, equipped with LCD television sets, a pillow menu, Egyptian cotton bed and bath linens, special amenities and personal services provided by a staff whose dedication and courtesy reflect the personality of this hotel.

The open air pool is in perfect harmony with the architecture in one of the hotel's patios. Other facilities include a spa offering face and body massages, complete with sauna and Jacuzzi.

An exquisite restaurant with adjacent patio terrace offers a background for celebrating memorable moments.

We recommend this property for individuals as well for top incentives or seminars, without any doubt as sole destination. Of course it can as well as be combined with a beach resort in Bahia or with another destination like Rio de Janeiro.
