Great place to stay. Pricey, but worth it. The room , the rooftop pool and views over the city are great. The cocktails and food were excellent as was the service.

My husband and I have recently returned from a holiday in Cuba. We spent the first night and the last night of our holiday in Havana at the NH Parque Central Hotel. Please see my review for the Occidental Royal Hideaway hotel in Cayo Ensenachos. The NH Parque Central is a lovely hotel right in the middle of Old Havana. Wonderful views from our room. We were extremely lucky to get room 747 which overlooks the park and centre of Havana. I had read on Tripadvisor that this room was really good (thank you for the person who recommended it for me!!) Anyway, it was an extremely large room with a huge kingsize bed. We didn't have a lot of time in Havana as we had to leave really early in the morning, after our first night there to get a plane to Cayo Las Brujas, but we had more time in Havana when we returned back for our last night. Havana itself is very interesting, beautiful old buildings falling into rack and ruin which must have been wonderful in the heyday. All the American cars and the general atmosphere of Havana. The downsides were the beggars and the dogs running around everywhere. Being a dog lover, I found that part quite upsetting. The NH Parque Central Hotel is a lovely hotel right in the heart of Old Havana. It does have a pool on the roof but we never had time to go up and use it. We had the breakfast at the hotel on our last morning, and I have to say that the breakfast was wonderful. The quality of the food was really good and offered so many choices. Considering how many people in Havana were going hungry it made me feel very lucky and privileged to be in that hotel. We walked all round Old Havana in the time we had, looking at all the old buildings including the Capitolio building, down all the main tourist spots including the harbour area. I would certainly recommend this hotel for anyone wanting a lovely stay in Havana.

Simply a superb and well managed Hotel from the NH group, superbly situated in wonderful central HAVANA, superb service throughout, a most delicious buffet breakfast is served everyday, certainly something for everyone. If you get FRANK the conceierge on the desk he has an array of information, about the city and also maps (very informative). If the housekeeper TATIANA looks after your room she is an outstanding member of staff where nothing is any problem. If you use the taxis outside the hotel fix a price first(you have been warned)! Their is a small shop at the opposite the hotel where you can buy your water, coke, crisps etc Only one gripe from the food from room service where one night i had a chicken baguette that was not cooked, which i complained about and was duly taken of the bill, otherwise a superb hotel and know wonder it is no 1 on trip advisor as its simply superb. The rooftop pool and views are outstanding. enjoy Philip

The service was both warm and friendly. The rooms were clean and tidy. The rooftop pool offers fantastic views which really add to the experience of the the hotel. The hotels location is second to none. We picked this hotel because it came no. 1 in tripadviser and we are so glad we did!
