Me and my partner had a fantastic stay at this hotel! We loved our room with lovely antique furniture and the hotel bar/breakfast room was also beautifully decorated. The staff here are very friendly and welcoming and made our stay very special. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants a lovely building and cosy room to explore Havana from!

Super friendly and helpful staff. Easy access to the centre of Havana. Lots of dining and shopping options. The hotel is in an impressive old building and very atmospheric, but a bit clunky - the window shutters don’t quite close, the plumbing is a bit tricky and noisy. But overall a great stay.

**Great Little Havana Hotel – Tasty Breakfast, Strong Drinks, Friendly Staff** Stayed hefe and really enjoyed it. The **4-course breakfast** was a nice surprise—good coffee, fresh fruit, eggs, and breads. The **cocktails were excellent** (try the mojito). Best part was the **staff**—always helpful and smiling. Good value, clean room, great location. Would stay again! **⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️**

Absolutely loved our stay. Great breakfast and best Mohitos from a teapot on the roof amongst some crazy artwork. Awesome location in Old Havana within easy walking distance of everything you want to see and really close to some truly wonderful restaurants and bars. The staff are some of the best hosts I have ever experienced on my travels! … I also never leave reviews so this is a testament to this truly unique and stylish B&B / Hostel. A gem in Old Havana

Hostel Balcones is a gem!!! I have traveled around the world, and this place is now in my top two!! Customer service here is exquisite! Jorge checked us in and educated us on everything we needed to know about what to do and not to do in Havana. Jorge is also a gem…. Everyone that worked there made us feel like we were family. The place itself had so much character and charm. The breakfasts each morning were included, and the chef even cooked our eggs right in front of us!! She was top notch. Amazing how the owner took a run down building and made it into a beautiful haven…. Thank you again Hostal Balcones- we will be back!! :)
