The hotel has been carved from a ruin, the remnants of a corner building in Salvador's historic district that has the architectural characteristics of the early nineteenth century. Casa das Portas Velhas is situated in one of the most celebrated squares in the historic district - Palm Square. Casa das Portas Velhas has just 14 rooms, all beautifully decorated, with private facilities.
