Top Alto da Se Cathedral Hotel Reviews

Hotel 7 Colinas

10/10 Excellent

"What an absolutely beautiful hotel! I loved everything about my stay, from the architecture and thoughtful little details to the abundance of plants and greenery throughout the property. The entire place feels peaceful and inviting. The pool area is lovely, the staff is wonderful, and my room was beautiful, with a little private deck overlooking the greenery where I could sit and relax. There are also several lovely spots around the property to sit with a laptop and get some work done. The only small thing I noticed was a bit of mold at the very bottom of the shower, but otherwise everything was perfect. I loved how much attention was given to creating spaces where guests can simply slow down and enjoy their surroundings. When it was time to leave for my next hotel in Recife, I genuinely felt sad. I wasn’t ready to go! I would have happily stayed much longer. Such a special place, and one I’d love to return to."

Irradiante

10/10 Excellent

"What an amazing find, the view is unreal, the breakfast is amazing and you are right in the heart of Olinda. I had one of the smaller rooms an it was plenty. Comfy bed, cool enough at night not to use the AC. I'll come back if I ever head this way again"

Pousada Convento da Conceição

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice. I would stay again Consistent with being a former convent, it's simple & humble, & very clean and orderly. Nice breakfast. Wonderful location - situated at Olinda's hilltop with beautiful views of the city and water. My room had 2 twin beds & a sink (nothing more), with shared baths (very clean!) down the hallway. Know that there's still a big Catholic statue in middle of the courtyard & religious paintings around (maybe it's still owned by the church?) Receptionist 24 hours who lets you in. On street with many arts/souvenir vendors & restaurants, including Art & Grill (nice fish, but steak for one is thin & dry). Down the hill are some lively bars, & beautiful Pausada do Amparo - gorgeous hotel & also nice restaurant (modestly priced), & wonderful (but pricey!) Oficina do Sabor restaurant."
