It’s not lost on me what the Cuban people are going through and this review is in no way a reflection of the staff. That being said, it’s disgraceful what this hotel charges and how they claim to be a 5 star hotel. The pool was ice cold, and there was often no clean towels. The coffeemaker in the room never had coffee available and no power point to plug it in. It’s like it was there for decor. Bottled water wasn’t refreshed each day and many food/wine items at the restaurants weren’t available. I have a laundry list of issues from my stay and I understand the socioeconomic issues Cuba faces, but please don’t stay here. If you must travel to Havana, please stay at a private residence. You’ll have a much better experience and potentially save hundreds of dollars and you’ll actually support the Cuban people. This hotel was a joke.

Watching the sunset over the Malecon while sipping a Cuba libre by the Infiniti pool on the rooftop is simply breathtaking! This hotel met all my expectations: luxurious, friendly staff , great amenities and an amazing breakfast spread. Not to mention the closed proximity to Paseo Prado and the rest of Havana vieja.
