Hotel Central is a colonial-style property close to the centre of Vinales, in the heart of Cuba's most captivating countryside. 

This low rise, colonial style hotel, located in the centre of the town, has a pleasant white-washed façade with a red tiled roof and shady terrace. Bright shiny floor tiling is offset by traditional dark wood furnishings in the public areas, which include a bar/restaurant on the ground floor, and the large windows throughout allow for the passage of cooling breezes. The 23 guest rooms have slatted doors opening to a terrace overlooking the main square, the street or the interior. They have one or two queen-sized beds and are well equipped with TV and air-conditioning. There’s free parking on the street outside and Wi-Fi is included throughout the property.
