Lonely Planet
"Cheap but not always so cheerful... Rooms are a tad dark and pokey. Bargain-basement seekers only." Full review
Rough Guide
"The cheapest hotel in Habana Vieja is an uninspiring affair, with pokey rooms, many of which have no windows and very basic facilities."
Fodor's

Frommer's
"This restored hotel is actually over a century old, yet it has the boldest and most contemporary architecture and post-modern interior design in town." Full review
Lonely Planet
"This bold royal-blue Habaguanex beauty on the northwest corner of Parque Central juxtaposes old-style architectural features (the original building hails from 1888) with futuristic design flourishes." Full review
Rough Guide
"Built from the shell of a nineteenth-century hotel, this fine four-star is actually mostly a modern construction, incorporating some of the building’s original features."
