Fodor's Expert Review El Mesón de la Flota

Calle Mercaderes 257, e/Calle Amargura y Calle Brasil (Teniente Rey), Havana, La Habana, 10100, Cuba

Named for a mesón (tavern) frequented by Spanish sailors in colonial times, this hotel in the heart of the Old City has five rooms with every modern amenity and spotless bathrooms. The bar's nightly flamenco performances are worth a look, and the restaurant's Spanish cooking offers respite from Antillean fare.

PROS

  • The hotel and facility staff are amenable
  • Just steps from Plaza Vieja
  • Very big rooms

CONS

  • The downstairs bar may well be too much noise for some guests of this bustling area
  • Rooms do not have the grand colonial style of some of the other hotels
