Lonely Planet "Meyer Lansky's magnificent Vegas-style palace has leapt back into fashion with its gloriously retro lobby almost unchanged since 1957 (when it was the height of modernity)." Full review
DK Eyewitness "A famous 1950s high-rise Hotel Habana Riviera overlooks the waterfront boulevard."
Rough Guide "Built by the mafia in the 1950s as a casino hotel, the Riviera retains much of that era’s style."
Fodor's "Although it's large, impersonal, and inefficient, the Riviera is home to El Palacio de la Salsa, one of Havana's best music venues." Full review

DK Eyewitness "A renovated Art Nouveau stunner, this popular hotel, located close to Plaza Vieja, exudes style and charm."
Rough Guide "Handsome and sleek with Art Deco touches, this is an unexpectedly upmarket hotel given its low-key side-street location."
Fodor's "Majestic and regal best describes the hotel's elegant Baroque facade and impressive lobby, with its soaring marble columns and domed stained glass roof." Full review
