Hostal Beltran de Santa Cruz

Good for budget

Beltran de Santa Cruz was the mansion of a French marquis in the old dyas and has a very special atmosphere. You can feel the early Colonial period here with columns, window shutters and building ornaments. Even there’s a museum room in the building.

The hotel is in the heart of Old Havana. There was a friendly staff. Rooms were located around a small courtyard. My room was big enough and decorated according to the theme of the hotel. Linens were not so clean, but towels were changed everyday. Mini bar was full. Bathtub was looking in bad condition and shower head was broken, but they fixed it. There's no instant hot water. You should ask from the reception to turn on the hot water.

The hotel breakfast was very poor.

To sense the air of colonial era, Beltran is a good choice among boutique hotels in Old Havana.

Unique Quality: Architecture and atmosphere.
