Yes this hotel is the best in central Havana (which frankly wouldn't be that difficult) but 5 star in a western sense it certainly isn't. That said the food is edible which is more that could be said for most of the restaurants in the city, particular praise should be given to their breakfast buffet. The service was fine but... more

Fantastic hotel in the best position in Havana for sightseeing, pretty much anything worth visiting is within walking distance. Staff were helpful and friendly, rooms were spacious and well equipped only small complaint was that it didn't have free coffee making facilities which you would expect from a 5 star hotel. Rooftop pool area was amazing with fantastic views of... more

This place is a top-quality hotel. The roof top bar and pool is a lovely place to escape to after the hustle of the town. The views are amazing too. The complementary Havana rum when you arrive means you can soon get into the cuban spirit! more

The rooftop pool and views from there are brilliant, but as in previous reviews, about 1/ 3 of the rooftop loungers were reserved by the virgin air stewards who came up early, threw towels down and came back later, which is annoying for people who... more

The staff were always helpful and recommened and booked some great resturants for us. The breakfast selection compares and in most cases is better than in... more

Buy yourself a good guide book before you travel and you will find all the best sights of Havana within walking distance of the front door. Don’t be put off by the people hassling you, they are... more

This hotel is in the very heart of old Havana, so easy to get anyway with lots of taxis or horse and carriages to take you where you wish. Would highly recommend a sight seeing tour in the horse and carriage, the guide we had, Julia, was fab and so knowledgeable on the history. The hotel staff were very friendly... more

We recently stayed at the Parque Central hotel in Havana and it w as fabulous. The staff were kind and very helpful, it was clean and comfortable too. Outside was a different thing altogether. On our second day we were stopped by a man who said he had seen us at the hotel and that he worked there on security.... more
