Frommer's "This imposing, five-story hotel stretches on for a hundred yards or so in each direction from its blocky concrete lobby." Full review
Lonely Planet "The main (only) benefit for the terribly unfussy is the price (cheap) and the location (you could hit a big home run onto the beach from here)." Full review

"For cash-strapped travelers intent on splitting their time between the beach and Havana, this dingy, 188-room budget all-inclusive hotel from the '70s might fit the bill." Full review

Frommer's "Sitting on a high bluff overlooking the Malecón, this is Havana's signature hotel, and it's loaded with atmosphere." Full review

The overpriced, tasteless dinner option at the hotel cabaret is best avoided.
Rough Guide "One of Havana’s best-looking hotels, with the air of an Arabian palace."
Fodor's "Memorabilia of such famous (and infamous) guests as Winston Churchill, Ava Gardner, Frank Sinatra, and Meyer Lansky, the Nacional still buzzes... though rooms are disappointing." Full review
OysterUpscale
"The common spaces, including the lobby and the ocean-view gardens, are gorgeous, and the food impresses. Rooms are charmingly traditional." Full review
Lonely Planet Top Choice
"Steeped in history and furnished with rooms with plaques that advertise details of illustrious past occupants, the towering Havana landmark sports two swimming pools." Full review
Lonely Planet Top Choice
