This historic hotel, built in the original Art Deco design in 1930, has hosted a slew of superstars over the years, including Frank Sinatra, Winston Churchill, and Ernest Hemingway, and who can blame them? This hotel is a great location from which to explore the unique city of Old Havana, which is only 5 minutes away by taxi. It is located in the heart of Havana’s Vedado area, with views of the port, sea wall, and city. Spend your days exploring Old Havana’s cobblestone streets, but don’t forget to rest by the pool and sip a thirst-quenching mojito from the pool bar! In the evenings, there’s a choice of elegant à la carte dining at Comedor de Aguiar or delectable buffet dinners at La Veranda, as well as five more bars where you may sample the local rums!
