Out of all the hotels in Havana the most charming are the one located in Havana’s Old Town. Its location is privileged – only few steps away from the most amusing corners of Havana.

There are about 2 dozens of these hotels in the old Town. Among which it is worth mentioning Florida Hotel. This 4 star property is one of the most charming and grandest hotels in Havana.

Its most elegant space is the restaurant La Floridana with sixty capacities for dinner and ten benches at its bar. Its Piano bar located opposite to the restaurant is probably the nicest place to spend a night listening to traditional Cuban music and dancing to the beat of the Afro Cuban rhythms.

This hotel is also a favourite place for businessmen meetings, wine tasting, and presentations of products. It is remarkable its stained-glass window at the upper part, second in size because the largest one decorates the ceiling of the hotel’s main staircase.

It seems a little hard to imagine that Obispo Street, one of Havana’s most crowded pedestrian ways, is located just some steps away, as well as the Plaza de Armas, place of foundation of Havana in November 16th, 1519.

This magnificent palace became home to some important economic institutions in the early 50?s. After the triumph of the revolution in 1959 it was nationalized and through almost 40 years of constant deterioration the Cuban government decided to refurbish the building and transform it into one of the best hotels in Havana.

Hotel Florida is a magical, perfect resting place. It is equipped for welcoming the most discerning visitor looking for the real Cuban feast that also means travelling, meditating, and having a good accommodation. This hotel could be just what you need for your holidays in Havana.
