This must be the coolest place we have ever stayed in. The staff were great and th atmospher very relaxing. Although the Breakfast was in a cafe 10 seconds down the road it was perfectly adiquate (remembering you are in Cuba not New York) and overall a great base to see the sights of the City. more

Los Frailes is a really good hotel where to stay at l'Havana. It's located in between Plaza Vieja and Plaza San Francisco de Asis, so you can reach all the main places of Old Havana and Avana Centre simply walking. The service is good and the rooms are perfectly clean. Most of the rooms have not windows but, as you... more

I have used trip advisor frequently and think it's brilliant... i have finally felt compelled to join. We stayed at hostal los frailes this May - it has a nice entrance but the atmosphere is quite off. We found the reception staff snooty and unhelpful - we couldn't even get a smile out of them. Our room was nice but... more

It is a lovely hotel, we stayed here for a week. The rooms are very nice, dark because of no windows but this also makes them cool. Breakfast at the cafe on the corner wasn't too good but it was ok. The maid din't seem to clean the room, just move the towels and make the bed. However we would... more

We were in Havana for five nights the end of December to the beginning of January, 2008. We were supposed to stay at Los Frailes for the full five nights, but as I've read in many other reviews, it didn't happen that way. We booked our stay through Nash Travel in Canada. My experience with Nash Travel wasn't a positive... more

Average tries-too-hard-to-be-cute Havana Hotel in the center of the Old Havana's touristy area. Used to be a monastery so the entire staff are dressed in monk robes - which makes it somewhat interesting. I had reservation for one person and invited to friend to stay with me. The fee for the 2nd person was MORE than what I paid to... more

We stayed here for 5 nights and loved it. The having no windows thing didn't bother us, being a former monastery it seemed in keeping. It also meant that it was very quiet. The standards were the best we came across throughout our 3 1/2 week stay in Cuba. Having breakfast at the little cafe on the corner was a... more

I got away to my favourite country and city in late July/August this year and evn though I feel quite knowlegeable of the geography of Old Havan especially, couldn't tell you where at the time Hotel los Frailes was located when my Cuban Travel Agent pointed out the area. Having checked out the hotel on the internet I was still... more

After a disappointing night in Ambos Mundos in their teensy tiny , expensive rooms, we cancelled our next two nights and checked in to Hostal Los Frailes. We enjoyed an exceptionally friendly greeting by both the bell staff and the desk staff--and offered a junior suite for less than what we had paid for a standard room at Ambos Mundos.... more
