Four of us stayed here after trekking for a week in the mountains. It is well located, comfortable, with air condition and easy access to the old town etc.

I recommend it and hope that you enjoy your stay as much as we did.

  I stayed here with friends for 2 nights in May 2022. So glad we chose this hotel which has been lovingly restored and is perfectly situated to explore old Havana.... read more Rooms were full of character. Breakfast was plentiful with lots of fresh coffee. The staff were super friendly, helpful and attentive and went out of their way to make sure our stay was comfortable. They organised a classic car tour for us which was excellent and taxis to restaurants and the airport. Overall a much nicer experience than staying at one of the bigger hotels and I would not hesitate to stay here again! Best of luck for the future, Derek. More

  This is an unique hotell in the very middle of Old Havanna.

  We've been back from our wonderful five-day stay at Hostal Balcones Muralla and through our sadness we resolve to return, and soon.

Five perfect days for two New Yorkers... read more in Havana. Think of our joy to spend hours leisurely gazing at the passers-by on the lively street below. We grew to love the sound of the city. We learned to identify the uniforms of the children on their way to school. We watched with great interest the sales progress of the fruit and vegetable merchant outside the door. Such a lively and colorful atmosphere!

It wasn’t guaranteed to be a perfect trip. My husband had misgivings about traveling as an American in Cuba. He even bought a money belt for the trip. Needless to say, it was a wasted $15 dollars that could have been much better used in support of the amazing, loving, and generous Cuban people.

Yonis, Cristobal and Jose, the three gentlemen who run the hotel, meticulously ensure the happiness and comfort of all of their guests. We started each morning with a delicious 5-course breakfast. Fresh fruit, toast with topping, salad, egg, followed by dessert. But their kindness and attention does not end at breakfast. No question was beyond their breadth, doors were opened always with a smile - like we were family, and we revelled in the recommendations, opinions, small-chat and anecdotes they offered us about Havana. Precious gems of wisdom.

The place is charming and maintained with great care and love. You experience the true atmosphere of the town in all of its hues and history.

We will be back. And we would never consider staying anywhere else.
