"While I find the staff dressed in mock monk garb a little bit cheesy... this is still a lovely little hotel located in the heart of La Habana Vieja."

Top Choice
"There's nothing austere about Los Frailes (the friars), despite the monastic theme (the staff wears hooded robes) inspired by the nearby San Francisco de Asís convent."

Mid-Range
"As a former monastery, the three-pearl Hotel Los Frailes offers plenty of history and a healthy dose of religious-themed kitsch, right down to staff members dressed as friars."

Star Service
"This centrally located hotel is situated between the San Francisco de Asis Monastery and the Plaza Vieja, but the theme of the property takes guests to the Valencia region of Spain."
Full review
Rough Guide
"Countrified feel, with stone floors, ferns lining the wooden-railed balconies and an attractive little garden out the back."
Fodor's
"An intimate hotel overlooking Havana's harbor. Rooms are tastefully restored and have the full complement of modern amenities, such as the next door Bodegón Onda tapas bar."
