Melia, Havanna

"Our stay at Hostal Balcones was perfect. Lovely room, nice location in the heart of Old Havanna and there was always a personal and warm welcome when we got home from an excursion around the city - at any time of the day or night. Really, the heart of Hostal Balcones are the people. Mariana, Henri, Ronaldo and the lovely ladies in the kitchen: thank you from the bottom of my heart to make us feel so welcome and to help us find our way around Cuba. Thank you for really nice conversations, for a wonderful breakfast and for welcoming us back after our four-day-trip to Trinidad just for the few hours we had before leaving to the airport. If I ever come back, I'll be sure to stay with you."

"Most beautyful casa particular in Havanna, with pool and any convenience, like a new museum of havanna. With fantastic view over the city."

"Very warm welcome, perfect service and delicious breakfast! Great support with every question and wish from my side throughout the whole stay and even before. I will definitely consider to come back, next time I stay in Havana. Thanks a lot!"

"We stayed here 3 days in February 24 and enjoyed the really Central location, just 2 blocks from Plaza Vieja and the Rum Museum. Old Havanna is all in walking distance, Capitolio is a 20 minutes walk. Super friendly staff consists of two teams (all speak English), changing every 2-3 days, who are all helpful with really everything you need to survive Havanna. Really good cappuccino with refill and tasty egg dishes. Water bottles are available for a little charge from the semi-public fridge. Tourists from other Casas came to enjoy breakfast and stable Wifi here too for a good reason. From the terraces in the 3rd and 4th floor we had a great view over the city, and in the 2nd floor "lounge" we enjoyed drinks in the evening. There were no flies or mosquitos while we stayed here. Actually we even returned for 2 more nights before leaving home, because of the nice atmosphere and the helpful people there. "

"Dieses nette kleine Hotel war mehr als eine Unterkunft, ich habe mich sofort zuhause gefühlt, bestens aufgehoben und bei allen Fragen bestens beraten. Auf der wunderschönen Dachterrasse mit Bar konnte ich fernab von jedem Großstadtstress Ruhe finden. I loved it and booked it also for the end of my journey! "

"I received such a warm and heartly welcome from René. I immediately felt cozy and was impressed by the lovely furnished house. My room was great and I slept incredibly well in the huge bed. Everything was very clean and totally stylish. In the evening I was greeted by Manni, who was there all night and gave me great tips for restaurants and the evening program. The next morning I was welcomed by the loving housekeeper who prepared me a wonderful breakfast. I would check in again at any time and I'm a little sad that I only spent one night there!!!"

"It was my first time in Cuba and my flight was delayed. Even though I arrived in the middle of the night, one of the owners was waiting for me and greeted me. The breakfast was also perfect, lots of fruit and very tasty scrambled eggs! Good accommodation, if I come to Cuba again I would like to come back!"

"sehr zuvorkommend sehr guter Gastgeber"

"Big thank you to the manager Raúl, who was of great help."
