Hotel Plaza - Hotel Description IMPORTANT: To improve the quality of your Holidays a CUBA TRAVEL NETWORK Representative will be available at Hotel Lobby the day after your arrival at 09:00 hrs, for assistance, information or to book your excursions.
Once home to a wealthy Cuban family, later the head office of an influential local newspaper (which, in the late 19th century, was the stage of a violent attack by a pro-Spanish mob), the Hotel Plaza will soon celebrate 100 years of operations and, like other properties in Old Havana, it has no shortage of stories to tell.
Albert Einstein once stayed and dined at a sumptuous banquet here, and the long guest list includes luminaries such as Isidora Duncan and Babe Ruth (whose former accommodations, suite 216, are today a kind of museum of nostalgia for baseball lovers, complete with El Bambino’s bat and ball).
Such details are only part of the Plaza’s historic charm, which immediately strikes the eye in the lobby. Arriving guests are greeted by an original and colorful tile floor, beneath a beautifully-restored bas-relief ceiling supported by white columns. This impressive layout surrounds a large, pleasant lobby bar, where light filters down from stained-glass skylights to a central fountain and planters. Indeed, the décor here makes such a powerful first impression that the upper level halls, with modern tiling, are a slight disappointment.
A block away from Prado (a broad, pleasantly shaded and historic promenade in Old Havana), the Plaza is also privileged in terms of location and makes for a splendid departure point for explorations of this part of town. The Capitolio and Gran Teatro are virtually across the street and Obispo (a few blocks away) takes you to very heart of the city’s colonial centre.
Rooms at the Plaza are spacious and sober and a number of them are graced by a private balcony. If you’re looking for a view, however, the rooftop Bar Solarium is the place to go at this hotel, especially if you would like a privileged look at the impressive Bacardi Building. A more intimate setting is found at the 2nd floor inner patio, ideal for savoring an afternoon tea.
With an elegant restaurant and a more economic, less formal eateries, the Plaza also offers moderately good options for eating in. Other attractive features include an executive meeting room (located on the 5th floor), with capacity for 80 people and technical facilities such as a video projector, a money exchange locale, a professional torcedor rolling Cuban cigars on order next to the lobby bar, and dance lessons offered daily to guests free of charge.
A charmingly old hotel, the Plaza will doubtless please those who seek history-rich properties and more practical types in search of a comfortable, well-located establishment.

Hotel Plaza - Hotel Details
Address: Ignacio Agramonte No. 267, Habana Vieja, La Habana, Cuba.
Standard Room... from US$77 --> US$49
The Hotel Plaza’s standard rooms have a simple, tasteful décor and color scheme, with discrete wooden furnishings. About half have twin beds and half king-sized beds, and triple suits boast small, private balconies with relatively nice views. The bathrooms are modern, clean and comfortable. Though all rooms are fairly spacious, those facing the street (rather than the pleasant inner courtyard) are roomier.
On Ignacio Agramonte street, just one block away from lovely Prado, the Hotel Plaza’s location is indeed privileged. Practically across the street are the Capitolio and Gran Teatro, and a short stroll up Prado takes you to the seawall (and a nice view of the lighthouse and Morro fortress). For an incursion into the colonial centre of the city, one need only walk down nearby Obispo, which ends at the Plaza de Armas.
Hotel Plaza Reviews: "Old Havana" user a CubaHotelReservation.com user, mexico - date posted: January 12, 2010
The first time I went to Cuba was December 8 to 12, my main reason for going was to see some of the achievements of the Cuban revolution in 50 years in Havana. The impression I got was very enigmatic. A beautiful city with noticeable deterioration. The people are really nice and beautiful. The Hotel Plaza is the ideal place to stay, especially for those interested in Havana Vieja, everything is very close. I recommended this hotel if you are not too fussy. The staff is very attentive, the hotel is very clean as are the rooms. The best thing about it is its location and lobby. I would love to come back to walk the streets again and see the people, a real sociological experience.

Hotel Plaza Reviews: "It's worth the money" user a CubaHotelReservation.com user, united kingdom - date posted: November 23, 2009
We stayed in this hotel after having spent some nights in other hotels. Overall it's worth your money. Location wise, it's very convenient to other amenities (interesting spots, bars, shops). The breakfast and service were good. Room smelled a bit but still OK. Recommend.

Hotel Plaza Reviews: "Great Hotel" user a CubaHotelReservation.com user, - date posted: April 15, 2009
You can't ask for a better deal! Excellent location, great price (specially if compared with NH across the street). Friendly staff always ready to help, good size rooms, security. Not the newest hotel in town. But certanly one of the most charming. I've paid 10 times more for similar hotels in places like Rome and Madrid. Is not perfect, but the price more than makes up for any shortcomings. I will stay there again next time I visit.

Hotel Plaza Reviews: "Surprise" user a CubaHotelReservation.com user, netherlands - date posted: August 11, 2008
Arriving in the pouring rain after a beautiful but very basic trip in Cuba, the Plaza Hotel was a great surprise. Beautifully restored, on a very central location, with helpfull friendly staff (typical Cuba by the way, gente muy agradable). I could not have a better reception in Havanna. And to complete the stay there was an excellent breakfast buffet with great coffee and the possibility to sit outside. It is also a good hotel for your last day before a late flight. Even when you check out early you are welcome to sit in the beautiful lobby and use the bathrooms after a stroll through Havanna during the day. Thanks a lot.

Hotel Plaza Reviews: "It's all about the personnel ... and the breakfest, of course" user a CubaHotelReservation.com user, canada - date posted: December 17, 2007
Hotel staff is pleasant.I enjoyed (and used) the bathroom more than the room (#414)where I only slept. Hot sun requires covering windows - the room light allowed no reading. I just hated that one step down from the bathroom to the room. Bed was comfortable, everything was clean. I often ate at the lobby restaurant open 24/7. Great tuna sandwiches, pleasant atmosphere, pleasant and efficient waiters. Also, very quick and competitive money exchange at the reception desk. Well, I am planning my return in couple of months, and guess where I am going to stay...
