The hotel staff was wonderful, particularly Lorena and Ivanilson. They went out of their way to make sure we were well taken care of and having a great time. We are not fluent in Portuguese, and Joao Pessoa in general doesn't have a lot of English speakers (which we knew going in and obviously was not an expectation). Lorena really helped us navigate, often coming from a completely different location in the hotel to ensure we were doing ok, and Ivanilson took excellent care of us during the days up at the pool. Everyone we interacted with at the hotel was friendly and motivated to ensure the guests were having a positive experience. The location of this hotel is also amazing. Highly recommend.

The Ba’ra Hotel is probably the best hotel in Joao Pessoa. This was our first time staying here, but we had previously visited to dine in their 2 restaurants, and seeing a bit of their infrastructure, I wanted to give them a try. We were not disappointed. Our room was elegantly designed, although a bit small. The bed is large, and of good quality, but surprisingly not that comfortable, but the linens are incredibly soft—a great quality cotton. The bathroom is large and the shower is even bigger (and the water pressure is great). The hotel has only been open for about 4 months (since October 2022). I think they are still shaking the bugs out, but their future looks good. The hotel staff are almost all incredible: in the restaurant Iocá, the maitre Murilo and our waitress Valeria were excellent; Guillherme, who works at the reception was able to answer any question I had about the property; the mixologist, Ulisses in Iocá had an encyclopedic knowledge of the art of drink preparation; Luciano, who works as security at the entrance was as charming, friendly and helpful as could be; Aquila, the hostess in Iocá was a wonderful face for the hotel, as she was as friendly as she was r. There were many employees who I want to praise, but I cannot remember all their names. Guillherme explained to me that the hotel has 122 rooms; the name “Ba’ra” means “ocean”, the name of their rooftop bar/restaurant, “Orama”, means “view” (both of these words are from the native Tupi language). The hotel has a kid’s space (really cute!), a rooftop pool (warm water), a 24-hour gym (great machines) and a spa; you can use bicycles that the hotel provides free of charge; breakfast, which is included, has options such as mimosas, eggs Benedict or smoked salmon; the rooms provide cotton robes and they also provide complimentary spumante at check-in and welcome petit-fours in your room. Private parking is also complimentary.

The hotel has 2 restaurants that are both open to the public for lunch and dinner (the service in both are intermittently good/bad, so if you eat here, you have a 50/50 chance of having a great meal (or a terrible one…). Lunch has always been good—dinners here, not so much.

hotel is really confortable, the room is really nice. Hotel has two nice restaurants the food has good quality. tue whole staff in the hotel are really kind.

in overall all staff does not speak other le languages, in my case I speak Spanish, English and German but in the check in the lobby was a little complex understand all information related to hotel because the staff in the lobby just speak Portuguese. I believe that is are opportunity area to hotel staff to learn another language
