Excellent hotel, you can feel the history in there. Mojitos outside either sat on the sofas, or down overlooking the Malecon is a must. Nice rooms, friendly staff, good food. more

We have always wanted to visit Cuba so we took quite a while to decide where exactly to stay in Havana, as that is where we wanted to be located for our weeks holiday. As we are in the Quality accommodation business, we were not phased by some of the negative reviews about the Hotel Nacional de Cuba, which can... more

This hotel has a beautiful lobby and some very grand public areas. However the rooms and staff fall far short of its 5* rating. I moved rooms three times in less than 24 hours. The only compensation I was offered for a sleepless night was a free mojito! The General Manager was an exceptionally rude man, along with most other... more

The Hotel Nacional was my first place that i visit at Cuba after the airport, and I must say that it was the best way to put me into the Cuban atmosphere.

This is a the hotel yo stay if you really want to have the feeling of Havana...it's not the trendy place to stay or the most confortable but it worths trying. more

It is a must for anyone with interest in the history of Cuba, especially before the revolution, as this was actually built by the Americans in 1930. It still has loads of fascinating original features,... more

The servers are borderline rude and it takes foreever to get a drink. I had a really... more

This wonderful old place is certainly a must to visit ...and maybe stay if you can afford the better rooms facing the water, but not if like us you are on a budget (ie the base rate rooms are much smaller and face the back). We spent the first part of our trip staying in the old city at Hotel... more

Highlights - amazing setting, good pool, clean facilities, friendly staff, centrally located, mojitos on the veranda with spectacular views over the bay, freshly grilled fish and meat to enjoy with cocktails and live cuban music, while enjoying the ambience of the sunset behind the ocean, smoking a montecristo cigar during sunset while watching the locals relax and wind down along... more
