We booked the Lido online. We could have booked other hotels in the $100 range but we decided to take the chance since it is cheap in a good location. Plus, the reviews weren't totally awful. The Lido is only a few blocks away from the Capitolio and Parque Central on a side street (which is rundown but not as... more

The Lido is cheap...you can see much nicer hotels from your room, but for the money it can't be beat. I paid about $39.00CDN (online booking) but could have done better if I had called the Hotel and booked. The staff are friendly and helpful, english is basic; much better than my Spanish. Basic breakfast is included...the coffee is good;... more

We were put here because the hotel booked for the start of our tour - The Telegrafo - was double booked. The Lido was very basic and we had an interesting group of insects in our bathroom. They had made their home in the rotten wood of the door frame, so at least they were happy. The room was small... more

If you stay here be sure to ask for a room with balcony facing outward. Arrived and put into dungeon style room that smelt like a sewer. Asked to be moved and after paying extra got a room with a balcony facing onto the street which was much better. Although left by mistake a wash bag with medicine behind and... more

The hotel is worse than other budget hotels I have stayed in -- For US$40/night in Havana we expected something more than what we got -- 1) The sheets and blankets were stained and they were not changed at all during our 4-night stay. (We hope the sheets were fresh when we checked in -- fingers crossed.) 2) Hot water... more

The hotel is located in the deep downtown of Havana. It's really cheap (we paid around 25 euros per night in a double room) and the conditions are those which the price indicates. Some rooms have no hot water and people need to move to other rooms. The landscape in the breakfast terrace is fantastic. Dinner is not bad and... more

The Lido was among the cheapest hotels in Havana, which is why I went for it. And in its case you certainly get what you pay for. It was a bit grim. The bedroom looked grotty and the bathroom was the size of a closet. On the first night there was NO WATER and then it was cold for the... more
