Queremos expresar nuestro más sincero agradecimiento al increíble equipo de recepción y a los managers del Hostal Alhabana. Desde el momento en que llegamos, nos hicieron sentir como en casa. Agradecemos enormemente el early check-in que nos permitieron, lo cual fue un gran alivio después de un largo viaje. Además, el desayuno adelantado fue un detalle muy considerado que nos permitió comenzar nuestro día con energía. Y no podemos olvidar la deliciosa merienda que nos ofrecieron la noche de nuestra salida; fue el toque perfecto para cerrar nuestra estancia con broche de oro. Las habitaciones estaban impecables, con todas las amenities necesarias, y la limpieza era sobresaliente. La propiedad en general está en excelentes condiciones, con instalaciones modernas y bien cuidadas. ¡Su esfuerzo y hospitalidad son realmente apreciados!

It was my first time in Habana, and I can say I had one of the best trip ever. The all Alhabana team was excellent and did amazing job. Rafael, Roxanne, Maria, the guys who prepare the breakfast every morning, the housekeeper, all of them made their best to help having a great time during my stay. I will be back soon.

Dear Hostal Alhabana team, I want to express my sincere gratitude for the wonderful stay I had at your lovely hotel. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcome and cared for. The hotel amenities are excellent, the cleanliness is impeccable and the building has a classic charm. The bar and patio are ideal places to relax after a day exploring Havana. I especially appreciate the upgrade to the Junior Suite and the late check out. The reception team was exceptional - friendly, helpful and always ready to provide assistance. In short, my stay at Hostal Alhabana was unforgettable. I hope to come back soon!

The first day, I was received very friendly. Even though I had an unconvenient flight time, the guys at the check-in were so kind to allow me to early check-in. The breakfast saved me from a bad hangover and was prepared on request with a lot of love.

Alhabana Outstanding Review
We really enjoyed our stay at the Alhabana and highly recommend it! Alhabana is located in Central Havana. By staying in Central Havana we were able to have an intimate experience on how real Cubans lived. The staff was outstanding! We would like to thank Rafa for all his help, answering questions, arranging an airport transfer and a day trip to Vinales. Alhabana was extremely accommodating and helped us when we were delayed 2 days arriving due to weather. We want to say THANK YOU for a great experience in Cuba!

This Hostal was everything we needed for our stay in Havana ! They helped with nearly everything we needed , even before our trip started ! The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful ! The highlight was that they offered us a late check out (at 17.00) without extra charges and also they kept our luggages during our excursions in other cities of Cuba! Thanks a lot for everything!

Accommodation met expectations. The room was clean. The bathroom has a hairdryer, shower gel, soap,... The breakfast was very tasty. The food and drink selection at the bar is great, but the prices are high. They will provide valuable advice to travelers to Cuba for the first time. Don't be afraid to ask, they will help arrange what you need. They will exchange dollars or euros for a Cuban peso for a good exchange rate.

I have spent more than 7 days at the Alhabana hostel, from the first day the attention was excellent, the staff was always attentive and attentive to my needs, every day they cleaned my room so every time I entered it was like the first day, the breakfast It was very good and the cook was attentive to everything I needed. It is very easy to walk around the place since it is central. I asked for extra nights and they gave me the junior suit, I loved it, it has a balcony and is bigger, I really enjoy the comfort they provide me in the place. Everything is central so I don't have to take a taxi and I can do several things while I walk around the city. Very good recommendations for this beautiful place. I will return very soon
