The restored mansion is phenomenal. The staff is customer service-oriented, and communication is one of their strengths. We also booked a tour through the hotel and were very pleased. 24-hour service, security is available. Additionally, our package included breakfast, which was delicious. If you are a coffee connoisseur, you will be very pleased. I would recommend the property to anyone visiting Cuba.

Beautiful and classy property. Good central location. It’s in Old Havana so a slight culture shock at first as a result of the mixture of gorgeous architecture and run down nature or the whole area. The hotel is immaculate and marvellous.

In the middle of our first night the electricity went off. We woke up sweaty- no AC, no fan, in complete darkness. In the morning, we were informed they were working on restoring. No breakfast obviously. We went out, came back around noon- nothing is changed. I asked for some flashlight, as it is dark like in the cave in that room. They didn't have any. We used our phones to light up the way to the bathroom. We told staff if electricity isn't back on at 4pm we will move out and to tell owners we need refund as we can't use our room. Went out again. Came back- no electricity- so we are moving out. THEY REFUSED REFUND, EVEN AFTER I TRIED REASONING WITH THE OWNER. THEIR POLICY INCL BUILDING COLLAPSE AS NO REASON FOR REFUND! Now here is the thing- being Americans we have a limited choice when it comes to hotels, we cannot use any government properties, so we chose the best possible option out of privately owned hotels, and also their best room- at close to $300/ night. You would think at that price point they will have some CUSTOMER SERVICE? They don't. Thankfully I recorded conversations and conditions, and filed a complaint with Expedia. The owner came up with all sorts of lies and made up stories too, childish if you ask me. About hotel: it is an OLD BUILDING pretending to be artsy by hanging some abstracts, that a 6yo could paint, on the walls. We could smell musky odor they are trying to hide with countless air fresheners, after AC was off. Not worth it. Not recommended.

Awful experience - would not recommend this place
As a solo female traveller, I will forever be disgusted by the actions of Andre, Sandy and their employees. I booked here, despite it being costlier, as I wanted a personal touch. I did not get that. Andre was controlling, passive-aggressive and hostile to the point that I would only interact with him as needed. They charge way more than the going rate for taxis and tours. Airport pickup is 70 euros, double the usual cost. Their classic car tour is not better, other companies provide an actual tour guide along with a driver at the price they charge. The driver provided by them was rude and unprofessional. He took calls, listened to and replied to voice-notes whilst ignoring me. He also shouted at a homeless woman who asked him for money. I told Andre about this and he accepted the driver’s lies and didn’t offer a compensatory tour. Whilst unwell, I was treated badly by them. I had an awful headache, amongst other symptoms so I made a reasonable request to turn down the loud music played during breakfast. The owner's response was to not only refuse but turn the volume up even though I was the only person in the restaurant and also shout at me. He then cancelled the late check-in agreed - which I needed as I was unwell. At this point I decided to leave before check-out as I no longer felt safe or welcome. After leaving, I got an email from them full of false accusations & threats. I have travelled globally and NEVER experienced such awful behaviour so cannot ever recommend.

Our stay with Andre and the team was the best experience we’ve had with any hotel in the world because of the service and care we received. A special thank you for the time you took to explain to us about Havana and what to expect from our time there. The restaurant recommendations were spot on as well. Every member of staff were polite and courteous. Our room was upgraded and the quality was second to none. We were made to feel valued and that nothing was too much trouble. Thanks to telling us a bit more about Havana and Cuban people, we fell in love will be recommending for sure. Thank you for a great stay. 10/10.
