Second and third time in Elena's, this time with some more time than last time. This woman never disappoints you, perfect host with loads of experiences to share. All has been said about the house and all to be discover with her. She is the Vedado's hidden gem.

This is the second time I stay at the Hostal Casa Tarajano and I have to admit I would never stay anywhere else. Elena really takes her guests to heart and is always welcoming and helpful. If you need someone to tell you what to do, see, go, eat, or even plan a trip around the island. She'll do it... More

My husband and I stayed with Elena for 4 nights in March. Elena's husband collected us from the airport in his awesome 1950s car- a brilliant start to our holiday! The apartment is perfectly located next to Hotel Nacional- so it was easy to find our way home after a day sightseeing and perfect for going for drinks in the... More

I’m so happy to receive this opinion from both of you! Thanks a lot, you are most kind. No doubt you can always count on me. The restaurant you are referring to is ‘Café Laurent’, it is just around the corner and is one of the best we can recommend to our guests. Thanks a lot again for your opinion.... More

Both my partner and I stayed at Casa Tarajano over Christmas. We both had an incredible experience. The place is immaculate and comfortable. Although Elena wasn't there (she did help me set everything up and was very helpful) her friends Maria Eugenia and Nancy took very good care of us and helped us with info about the city, and even...

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay of 4 nights at Elena's casa. House and host - both perfect and amazing! First, with respect to the room we rented: great! It was very tidy, always clean and nicely made. That in its own right deserves already the highest amount of stars. It is located right next to the Hotel Nacional and within... More

I was extremely fortunate that a friend of a friend had made my booking at Elenas. Although Elena herself was in Spain when I visited, her cousin (forgot name??!!) took excellent care of me with local advice regarding transport, local eateries, and especially correcting my spanish. The casa itself is beautifully appointed and very comfortable and the location is just... More
