Historic, well-run hotel in a lively central location, with stylish rooms and a central courtyard retaining original brickwork and arches.

In a lively corner of Old Havana on the busy Parque Central, a late 19th-century building houses the well-run Hotel Telégrafo - Cuba's oldest hotel.  Its striking sky blue façade forms a distinctive part of the local architecture, while inside the décor is tasteful and contemporary.

The well-appointed rooms are stylishly furnished and comfortable. There's a beautiful central courtyard, which has retained much of its original brickwork and arches together with a rather impressive mural. Other amenities include a bar, atmospheric pavement cafe and restaurant serving a good breakfast (not common in Cuba!).

Our Expert's Opinion

This is a cheerful, friendly little hotel in easy walking distance of the main sights of Havana. Have a drink at the hotel’s pavement café and watch the vintage cars go by.
