We loved this place! Full of quirky character and charm. The staff were incredibly friendly and sociable. We were well attended and nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommend if you want to be smack bang in the middle of Havana Vieja.
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
We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely hotel. Great location, fab decor and roof top and most of all looked after so well by all the staff who make this place special. High ceilings, quirky touches everywhere and moreish cocktails for every palate. Definitely recommend!
Authentic Cuban Hospitality at Its Best!
Delicious breakfasts, beautifully vintage rooms, and a perfect location—but the real highlight? The incredibly kind staff who made our stay unforgettable. If you want to experience true Cuban warmth, this is the place to be!
Such a lovely stay. Breakfast is lovely, the bar makes amazing drinks. Super safe neighbourhood. Walking distance to lots of nice eateries. The staff were so lovely, speak multiple languages and went out if their way to help.
Unique character with super friendly and helpful staff. Great location, easy to walk to the centre , just minutes away.
This is Cuban with limited food in the country as a whole, so expect this reflectwd in the breakfast options (and in all restaurants in the country).
Good place to stay if you want an authentic experience.
Perfect location, comfortable rooms, relaxing rooftop lounge, delicious food,(and cocktails) and an AMAZING staff. - Thank you Adrian, Jordania, Turan, Lisandra and Jorge. I checked out dozens of guest houses in Old Havana, and this was by far the best!
Amazing!! The staff are the best people and made my stay so enjoyable. They were there for anything I needed help with and made me feel at home. Can’t compliment enough, best place to stay in Havana
A delightful hotel and exceptionally helpful staff
Balcones deserves six points out of five on every count: it was absolutely excellent! The place was charming and well located, and the staff were all brilliant. They were charming, helpful, friendly, and well informed, and not at all pushy. They offered as much contact as you wanted but were always ready with help or just for a chat.
