Of course you can never talk about Havana Hotels without mentioning the ones built pre-revolution with American investment, some of it from Organized Crime.
The Hotels Riviera and Capri along with the Hotel Nacional were in part or in whole financed by Mob Money.
There are also the more modern Hotels that were built during the era of cooperation with the former Soviet Union.
They are all in their own rights incredible pieces of Cuban History.
The Hotels I have featured here are all worthy of mention. Our first Hotel is the Hotel Tropicoco which is just outside the Havana City limits on the Beach at Playas del Este.
The next Hotel on our list is a Hotel of incredible Historical significance. It is the Hotel Ambos Mundos, this is the Hotel where Ernest Hemingway lived for several years before purchasing His own Home called Finca Vigia. Hemingway's room is still preserved today exactly as he left it so long ago. The exterior of this beautiful edifice is painted in a most pleasing shade of coral pink as it always has been. Maintaining this type of Historical continuity is what draws many people to Havana and this Hotel will immerse you in a not too distant past.
The Hotel Nacional de Cuba is the Crown Jewel of Cuban Hotels, it is not considered to be Havanas best Hotel nor its most expensive but few other Hotels anywhere can match the History and grandeur that suffuse this incredible Hotel. The Hotel Nacional has welcomed guests both famous and infamous for more than 75 years. The grounds are extensive and an afternoon spent in the garden sipping mojitos overlooking the Malecon is time well spent.
