Would definitely recommend this hostal! The building is beautiful, breakfast is delicious and best of all the staff are the loveliest of people! We want to thank Sarais and Aramis... read more specifically for being so kind, friendly and helpful to us with all of our questions. They really made our stay here special and are wonderful people!
The owner Richard is really welcoming and lovely and was a huge help so big thanks too!

Our one piece of general advice would be to make sure you bring lots of cash with you to Cuba! The exchange rate at the ATM here is so bad that you’ll end up paying 4x the price for everything!! More

  We stayed four nights in this exiting hotel. We had the 2 room apartment which is very lovely restored. The whole hotel shows the love that was given to the... read more restauration.
We had a excellent breakfast every day, with coffee and juice, vegetables, bread, marmalade, cheese and eggs madein every way we wanted.
The stuff is very nice and helpful.
Most of the sightseeing places are reachable in walking distance. A lot of restaurants and bars are around, for covid they were all cclosed, but the stuff organised take away for us and made delicious cocktails at the hotel bar.
We will get back to this place when covid is over and enjoy real Habana life there. We recommend this place for having a great time in Havanna! More

  This is an unique hotell in the very middle of Old Havanna.
Original beautyful tile floor, old furniture and art, a breakfast to kill for.
Host are so friendly and... read more made everything for us to be satisfyed.

  We stayed at the Hostal Balcones Muralla for 4 nights as a couple and it was our first time in Cuba. Based in old Havana it was the perfect base... read more for going out to explore the city. The staff were very friendly and so helpful, assisting in booking one classic car tour we did, arranging airport pick up as well as giving recommendations for local restaurants and where we could find essentials like SIM cards. They were always around 24/7 to answer our questions or make us a cocktail on the balcony. The room was as described with air-con & a lovely balcony. Unfortunately there was noise from the street in the evenings, but that tended to die down before midnight and we understood it was nothing the hotel could control.
Would recommend to anyone travelling or planning a holiday in Havana to get a real taste of Cuban life. Would happily return and start there again.
