"It's unusual to find a house this old in western Vedado, so make the most of the 1861, whose four private rooms are a riot of wrought-iron, stained glass and mosaic floor tiles." Full review

"Built from the shell of a nineteenth-century hotel, this fine four-star is actually mostly a modern construction, incorporating some of the building’s original features."
