Recently refurbished, and located around 30 km away from Varadero beach, Velasco Hotel is a welcoming, 1920 construction with a very distinctive style, in the heart of Matanzas city.
From the architectural and historical perspective, this is a valuable and impressive place, and certainly one of the local landmarks, combining different styles. Precious materials such as fine wood, granite and marble have been used during the remodeling, to recover the former grandeur of the hotel.
Hotel Velasco is part of the Hoteles E (Encanto) brand, a project that aims at creating modernized, and well-equipped accommodation options in urban areas, while preserving the local historical, and architectural heritage. Hoteles E brand is characterized by providing a cozy ambiance, with special attention to personal services, being a helpful support to the increase of cultural tourism in the country.
The Velasco Hotel has a total of 17 rooms: ten standard rooms, four mini suites, and three junior suites, all of them with air-conditioning, TV, telephone, safe, minibar, Internet service, and a bathroom. Some rooms have a balcony with a view to the park, for those willing to take in the vibrant street sounds; which can also be avoided by closing the hard wood windows. From the rooms in the upper floors, Matanzas Bay views will be the perfect complement.
Conveniently close to the hotel are the Pharmacy Museum, and the notorious Sauto Theater. Other interesting places to visit are the former City Hall and San Pedro Church.
