Teatro Garcia in Havana

Havana

There is nowhere in the world quite like Havana. Crumbling yet elegant, exotic and vibrant, it has escaped the consumer driven trappings of chain restaurants and shopping malls and remains an open air museum lost in time. The old quarter of Havana dates from 1515 and is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It's core has mainly been pedestrianised which makes it a pleasure to stroll around.

A number of colonial houses have been sensitively converted into charming hotels with plenty of atmosphere. Below we suggest 5 nights accommodation including arrival transfer, however all our trips are tailor-made so let us know your requirements. All the hotels mentioned are located in the historic, old part of town. We have listed our favourites, but if you have a hotel in mind which does not appear please contact us.
