My first time in Cuba and with only two nights, I felt at home. Since my arrival with the attention of the reception staff Mariem I received an incredible early check in and a great free upgrade to one of their best rooms, the Junior Suit, super comfortable and spacious. I really enjoyed breakfast, mainly the coffee and the egg, and the chefs were attentive to everything I asked for. I can't leave aside the cleaning staff who always received the room like the first time. Thank you all! I hope to return soon!

It has to be the best in Havana
That was the first place where I took refuge when I reached Havana and I am happy I chose this place. Best staff always ready to help you and the way they conducted business. Rooms are comfortable, very affordable rents, and they provide solution to everything.Location is very central at less than 10 min walk to China Town. It was the first place I stayed at on arrival to Cuba and the last one too. I have heaps of praises for every staff member who works at Alhabana. Would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Havana.

The best vacation!!, my first time and it was incredible, everyone's attention never lacked from the cleaning staff who, thanks to them, received my room every day as if it were the first time and the breakfast was very delicious, I tried new things like guava although it was not something very sweet for me.

Magnificent attentions during the long stay by all the attentive and professional staff, the room was spacious, comfortable, clean with TV and minibar, full bathroom, amenities and 7 towels, a good experience despite the difficulties beyond the control of the property that despite having an emergency power plant, the situation was extreme throughout the island with days without electricity generation. I will definitely return to this hotel for its good handling of the crisis and attentions.

My stay at Hostal Alhabana was simply wonderful. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcome thanks to the free early check-in, which was a great relief after a long trip. Although they do not offer free internet as part of the regular service, they provided it to me at no additional cost, which was a pleasant surprise and very useful for staying connected with family and friends. Additionally, the hostel is located in a safe neighborhood, which allowed me to explore the area with complete peace of mind. The room was very comfortable and the hostel is extremely clean. One of the highlights of my stay was definitely the breakfast; The chef prepares an excellent breakfast each morning, with a variety of delicious options that gave me the energy to start the day. I especially want to thank Rafael for all the help provided and the reception team for always being on top of everything I might need. In short, Hostal Alhabana offers a perfect combination of comfort, security and excellent service. I would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Havana!
