Staying at this hotel was a mix of excellent and disappointing experiences. The location is superb with a view of Havana, but the service was cold at times. The dining on the rooftop terrace was lovely, although the facilities didn't meet all expectations.

Staying at this hotel was a unique experience as the rooms had no windows, which gave me a sense of privacy and coziness. The service was top-notch, with friendly staff who were attentive and provided excellent room service. The location was ideal, situated on the corner of two streets near Plaza Del Armas, offering easy access to the city's attractions. Dining on the rooftop terrace was a delight, especially enjoying the craveable salads. The facilities were clean and modern, enhancing the overall stay.

Staying at this hotel was such a unique experience! The historical significance and the window where Hemingway once stayed added a special charm. The service, however, was a bit lackluster, with some staff seeming disinterested and almost rude when it came to receiving tips. The location was superb, right at the corner of two streets near Plaza Del Armas in Habana Vieja, and the dining on the rooftop terrace was a delightful experience.

I stayed at the hotel with a window where Hemingway stayed before buying a house. The room was comfortable, but the service was very offhand and not interested. The location was convenient, not far from Plaza Del Armas, but felt like a Potyomkin village. The dining on the rooftop terrace was memorable with delicious toasted sandwiches.
