Authentic Havana Experience - Wonderful stay in Old Havana. Tons of character and charm. All rooms have private bathrooms and shower (not so common in Havana) and there is a great little bar plus... read more a rooftop to hang out at. Complementary breakfast every morning. Fantastic staff - we made fast friends with Frank, who took great care of us.

  Very friendly - Hostal Balcones Muralla was my first stop on my first trip to Cuba and, unfortunately due to flight delays, I did not arrive until after 2:00 a.m., but that was... read more no problem. Staff were there to greet me enthusiastically. The room was simple, but good. It was a noisy area, but it is in old Havana. What should I expect. The staff were very helpful, but with one staff a bit too much. Overall, if you want noisy, vibrant, busy old Havana, I would recommend it.

  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.

The amenities function well, and it's very comfortable. Will definitely be back.
