“Ambos Mundos”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 November 2011

Stayed here for 2 nights, more than enough time in Havana.
This hotel has a very nice lobby area and was the only place we saw in Havana that sell chips and a burger...

The rooms were very basic. If it is only for 2 nights would not put me off but if you are used to nice hotels I would reccommend the parque Central or Telegrafo.
Ambos Mundos has one of the best locations in Old Town which is where everything is mainly.
The next two I would choose as was 5 mins walks was telegrafo and Parque Central.

Thing to do

Floriditas for dinner and cocktails
Tropicana show
A guided excursion around the main sites.
Lake Buena Vista social club

Overall average hotel brilliant locations, room fairly clean just not luxury.

“a nice and historical place”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 September 2011

A nice hotel with a rememberer of Ernst Hemingway.It´s well situated in the center of Havanna. Only you have to walk the last 100m.The style is old Cuba but the rooms are clean.

“immerse yourself in the atmosphere”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 August 2011
4
people found this review helpful

after reading the reviews we were a little uncertain - but I say just enjoy the atmosphere of the place. it is a one off, there is nowhere I have ever been that is quite like it. We felt safe, the room we had was basic but full of character, we fell asleep listening to the sound of the piano from the bar - thats what Cuba is all about. the breakfast was basic but the view - phenomenal. just try out this place before someone ruins it by making it like every other hotel.

Room Tip: its quirky just take what you get

“Rooms akin to a mental asylum!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 July 2011
2
people found this review helpful

We recently spent 1 very uncomfortable night in this rip-off hotel and it was one of the worst hotels I hve ever stayed in. The rooms can only be likened to a mental asylum with lumpy old beds and old mutsy bedding. The room itself smelt damp and the doors would not open or close properly. The bathroom taps leaked and the shower barely worked. It was late when we arrived and therefore we had no option but to stay but wewere out of there the nextmorning as quickly as possible. It was grim and an awful experience!
