Can’t recommend this place enough, the building is as beautiful as everyone who works in it, and the 4 course breakfast is the best in Havana Those eggs! The staff... read more are so helpful and have a great knowledge of Cuba, they are more than happy to help suggest and organise the rest of your trip around the country. One note, if you are travelling to Cuba do not transfer your money at the airport, wait until you arrive in Havana and do it at your hotel or in a restaurant, much better exchange rate. We’ll definitely be back!

  Absolutely amazing stay at this gem in Old Havana. Through an unsuspecting brown door at street level you are guided up to a beautiful restaurant and terrace where the hosts... read more will give you the lay of the land. Our room was so charming and the bed comfortable. The location is spot on and walking distance to all the sights. This place oozes character and charm and gave us such a more memorable experience than a normal hotel. The breakfast is abundant and fresh everyday and we looked forward to it every morning, sitting on the terrace watching the daily life zoom past below. Despite its location in the heart of Old Havana, in the night it was quiet and peaceful. The only small negative is a slight smell from the plumbing but when you are staying in older renovated buildings such as this it is normal, and didn’t bother us.
What makes this place extra special is the wonderful people who work there, like Chris who helped organize everything and made us feel so comfortable

  I couldn't make a better choice. The interior and rooms had lots of charme, I immediately fell in love with. The breakfast was more than I could ever ask for... read more and when you order a cocktail in the evening you won't be disappointed. The staff made my stay really exceptional. They are very helpful and good to talk to. It was very fun when staying at the hotel. The Hostal has a very central location in Old Habana to get to the most important sights in walking distance.

A big thank you to all of the crew for having me, it has been a real pleasure!
