"Although a block removed from the Prado, this is a much better bet than its nearby sister, the Hotel Caribbean." Full review
Lonely Planet
"The lackluster Lido is Havana's unofficial backpacker nexus. It has been popular for years for its central location and no-frills rooms with intermittent hot water and a gritty neighborhood feel."
Rough Guide
"Located on a run-down street in a lively local neighbourhood, the rooms here are dark and have rickety furniture, but are inexpensive for a hotel so close to Habana Vieja."

"This is one of the newer additions to the Habaguanex chain, and yet another stunningly restored old building." Full review
Lonely Planet
"Behind its impressive architecture, the Raquel offers well-presented if noisy rooms, a small gym/sauna, friendly staff and a great central location." 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
