The hotel is very good located, in the center of Havana. It is close to El FLoridita, just two streets away, so you can go for a late night drink.
The hotel has a very nice garden looking to the street with a swimming pool, that is really big plus, so you can in the afternoon go and swim.
The rooms are not big, but very comfortable, bathroom OK. In the roof-restaurant you can go for a typicall Cuban danceing and singing evening with very good food!

Stayed for 1 night only on way back from Guardalavaca, the hotel itself was grand, fantastic photos and steeped in history throughout the ground floor. Our room was a bit dated looking, but clean and had the best view we had ever had out of the 3 hotels we stayed in Cuba, straight out over the ocean and the old fortress, quite spectacular. We had our daughter with us and it was 2 rooms together separated by a hallway and wardrobes, lots of space. We had stayed now in Cuba nearly 2 weeks and just wanted a quick no frills tea so asked the doorman where the nearest decent Italian was, he told us where to go, and he came across very happy to help, In Cuba you tip everyone but we did not tip him, he really did not seem to expect it, anyway we had a lovely meal and when we got back to the hotel we tried to give him a tip saying thank you for his suggestion, he still refused!! Amazing in Cuba, eventually we got him to take it. Nice pool as its so hot wandering around but extremely noisy as its on the street level, think we were spoiled at the start of our holiday in the Parque Central, its rooftop pool was amazing. Would stay here again, great location and not as many tour guides etc hitting on you as you leave the hotel as there were in the PC.

Stayed here twice on a trip to Cuba in May. Rooms were large, functional and clean. Food was good. No complaints and wouldn't hestate to stay again. Cuban idiosyncracys do appear but it only adds to the charm. For example, it took four people an hour to sort my wifi access out, when a new card for a few dollars would have been less expensive and a lot faster but no complaints about the effort expended.

This historic hotel is conveniently located on the Passeo, near the Museum of the Revolution and the Museum of Cuban Art and is a short walk from the city center and Old Havana. A fleet of taxis await just outside the front door. The views from the restaurant on the 9th floor are some of the best in the city. The lobby is lovely, reminiscent of a bygone era. Rooms are a bit worn and threadbare but lovely none the less. Each day we were there the chambermaids made different towel sculptures which was a nice touch. The TV news is "filtered". My room on a lower floor overlooked the Passeo and street noise was a constant. The breakfast buffet offered many choices but the food quality as elsewhere in Cuba left something to be desired. Front desk personnel varied in their efforts to please.
