We had originally built in 'Iberostar Parque Central 'want to stay, what however unfortunately was fully booked. The alternative it was right next door, the 'telegraph', much cheaper, but for cuban standards also not bad. Breakfast and television broadcasts can one forget, but who needs already tv on vacation. The rooms really spacious and with comfy beds. From the window from great view on the blazing cuban life. Soundproofing absolutely sufficient for pleasant night's sleep. We were in any case satisfied. … read more

The staff is friendly, take it for the money not so closely and applied to its benefit. The rooms are very clean.Breakfast is barely middle class. The coffee was disgusting but otherwise is the breakfast buffet ok. It will be fresh eggs fried, there was muesli, sausage, cheese and fruit.The rooms are big enough. The location to the inner courtyard is quieter, but you can because of the smogs no windows open. The furniture was rather somewhat older, however everything was clean.Very well located middle class hotel in the city centre from Havanna.nullVery centrally located. The tourist bus drives right on the … read more

Hotel description *

  • Location
    A famous institution in Havana since 1888, this hotel has since the early 20th century been considered one of the best in all Latin America. It lies directly beside the beach and is only a few minutes on foot from the "Museo de Bellas Artes", the "Capitolio", and the "Gran Teatro de La Habana", famous for presenting the best opera and ballet performances in the city.
  • Facilities
    The historic city hotel was established in 1860 and was then located on Calle Amistad. Around 1888, it was relocated to its present position on the busy corner of Prado and Neptuno streets. In 1911 the hotel was completely rebuilt, and when it reopened it was regarded by the press of the day as the most modern hotel in the city and ranked amongst the top eleven hotels in Latin America. The hotel of today combines modern and colonial elements in its architecture to create a wonderful unity of present and traditional styles. On offer are a total of 63 comfortable guest rooms with excellent views out over the city. The inner courtyard with the original brickwork of its arches forms an interesting contrast to the new design features. The hotel has a large ceramic mural in the form of a collage, showing elements of Havana's colonial architecture and a fountain which appears to magnify the courtyard and its surrounding ruins. There are 54 standard rooms, three suites, and six junior suites available, in addition to a lobby area with a reception desk manned around the clock, a hotel safe, a cloakroom, a currency exchange facility, and lift access. Guests at this air-conditioned establishment may also take advantage of the restaurant, the two cafes, the bar, and the selection of shops. Also available here is room service (charges apply), conference facilities, a public Internet connection (charges apply), and parking for those arriving by car (charges apply).
  • Rooms
    All rooms are fitted with an en suite bathroom with a bathtub and hairdryer, centrally regulated air conditioning, a double or king-size bed, cable TV, a telephone, a room safe, a minibar, and either a balcony or terrace as standard.
  • Meals
    The elegant hotel restaurant specialises in Cuban and international haute cuisine. Its decoration creates a unique place with a classical ambience, ready to welcome guests back at any time. Its appointment with modern furniture creates a timeless atmosphere in the halls with stained glass windows. The restaurant is situated on the ground floor of the building and offers guests a breakfast buffet or an individual breakfast, lunch à la carte, lunch from a set menu (offered for groups), and a set menu in the evening.
  • Payment
    MasterCard and VISA are accepted as methods of payment.
