    • Hotel Inglaterra - Havana
    by sourbugger
    The oldest hotel in Cuba, it is still one of the best.

    What it lacks in the opulence and modern amenities found in the seaside resort hotels it more than makes up with bags of character and it's superb location.

    The lobby area certainly evokes the colonial period, whilst the bar area is a riot of over-the-top decoration not dissimilar to a London Gin Palace of the Victorian era.

    Due to the age of the build, the bedrooms sometime lack the polish of more modern places, but the plumbing and air-conditioning works well (at least by Cuban standards)

    The rooftop bar is a great place to relax, and they sometime put on dancing and serve cocktails the equal of anywhere on the Island.

    The cafe area on the front of the hotel is also a great place to watch the world go by, although true to colonial times (and some may have a problem with this) Cuban nationals are clearly unwelcome.

    The Inglaterra is the oldest hotel in Havana, It's quite nice inside, very colonial style, particularly the restaurant/coffee bar area. Our room had no real window which made it a bit depressing sometimes, though we might have been lucky actually, at least it wasn't noisy.

    The hotel's location is excellent for walking around in the old town. it's also next to the Gran Teatro and two minutes from the Capitol. But what I loved most is the terrace ovelooking Parque Central (and the traffic), with good cocktails and live music.
    The hotel itself is a National Monument.

    Style and location....the hotel is idealy located rigth in the heart of Havana, in front of the hugely popular Parque Central, next to el Gran Teatro and 2mins walk to el Capitolio.

    The hotel is a slice of Cuba's Heritage as it's the oldest hotel in town, over 120 years old, and is considered as a National Monument. The mixed style of rococo, baroque and colonial makes it even more exceptional.

    You have an amazing view of Havana from the rooftop bar and the streetside terrace is a must for those who want to see the bustle of the city while drinking the best mojito in town and listening to the brass band.

    Rooms and bathrooms are a bit dated (to remind us that we're in a monument ?) but spotlessly clean and the airconditionning was slightly noisy.

    The service was good and the staff was really friendly and helpful.
    Good breakfast in the morning.

    To sum it up, a "must stay-in hotel" and I won't go to any other hotel next time I'm in Havana !

    Location
    This hotel, founded in 1875, was the favorite gathering place of the people of Havana in the 19th century. Declared National Monument for its historical values, its location in the centric Paseo del Prado and next to the Gran Teatro de La Habana, headquarters of the National Ballet of Cuba, transforms it into a cultural center par excellence. Only 20 minutes away from the José Martí international airport.

    Hotel Inglaterra

    A National Monument that was built in 1875. It was visited by the famous and a number of notable Cuban politicians. Jose Marti gave his independent speech here in 1879.

    Richly decorated interior contrasts its plain exterior, with beautiful iron fences, intricately carved ceiling, colourful mosaics and grand arches.

    Not much I can say about this hotel since I only visited the lobby and the restaurant.

    • This hotel has a collonial style. I liked it very much. Not because you have a lot of comfort but because it is old and still has his old charm. You also stay in the midle of the old town. Liked it very much.
    Take with you something to cover the ears ;-) the noice of the street in the night

    the rooms. But ask for a room on the 3th floor.

    Although we didn't stay at this hotel, we were inside the place so many times that I felt a review was in order. The hotel, built in 1875, is a national monument with elegant colonial decor. There are historic photos in the lobby that illustrate the hotel's history and celebrity patrons, interspersed with stained glass windows and Cuban art. The rooms are simple and cozy.

    There is a great Internet cafe on the main level, as well as a terrace bar and grill on the roof and a great patio. There are 3 places to eat in total in the restaurant, and the cafe-style restaurant has beautiful tables, each painted by a local Cuban artist. The location of this hotel couldn't be more central; next to Paseo del Prado and Parque Central, a 5 minute walk to El Capitolio and Gran Teatro.
