Hotel information
This famous hotel built in original Art Deco style in 1930 has welcomed its fair share of celebrities over the years – Frank Sinatra, Winston Churchill and Ernest Hemingway have all been guests and who can blame them?
Located in the middle of the Vedado district of Havana, overlooking the harbour, sea wall and city, this hotel is an ideal base from which to explore the unique city of Havana only 5 minutes away by taxi from the old town. Spend your days wandering the nearby cobbled streets of Old Havana, but don't forget to take some time to relax by the pool sipping a thirst-quenching mojito from the pool bar! In the evenings, there's a choice of smart à la carte dining in Comedor de Aguiar or delicious buffet meals at La Veranda and 5 more bars at which to try the local rums!
