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

Hotel Central is a low rise, colonial-style property, situated a short stroll from the centre of Viñales. Opened in December 2017, It 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 and restaurant on the ground floor and the large windows throughout allow for the passage of cooling breezes. There are a couple of dozen guest rooms, some with slatted doors open to the terrace with one or two queen-sized beds, are also well equipped for Cuba, with TV, desk, hair-dryer and ironing board. There's free parking, but a charge is made for the Wifi in the lobby.

What our clients say

  • Highlight: Wandering around the old town of Havana - great buildings everywhere in various states of repair. Just full of atmosphere. Also the 1950s American cars. I didn't realise just how many there were! Again in all states of repair, but a fantastic sight even to someone who isn't particularly a car buff.

  • Many happy memories but loved the guided tour of Havana in the vintage car (huge 1953 Ford pink and cream convertible). Also enjoyed walking in the beautiful Vinales valley, it was like travelling back in the past with oxen ploughing and tobacco drying in huge thatched barns....It exceeded my expectations. Great organisation, informative guides, careful and punctual drivers and accommodation in convenient yet quiet locations, near to tourist attractions and restaurants.

  • Havana..colourful and crumbling...a prince inside paupers clothes, colonial architecture Trinidad..marvellous and whilst it is built on tourism, within 2 blocks of the historic centre you are in another world. Music, music, music..the talent is extraordinary. Food getting better all the time.

    DS, Cambridge
  • Most Memorable Moment?: Too hard! Havana itself? The beautiful sea up north? The beautiful countryside? Meeting Cuban people and glimpsing a bit of a remarkable country in the midst of some change...  Too hard!

    JL, Leeds
  • Most memorable experience: "It had to be La Guarida paladar in Havana, travelling in the vintage cars and also the Casa de la Musica in Trinidad, just sitting outside in the evening."
