Was a friendly place with beautiful design but a little bit too much of old stuff. In some cases old furniture and appliances are not helpful at all. Breakfast was not good but the bar was good with normal prices. Hot water was not always available. About the noise. The room had too much noise from outside which I understood because of the location of the building. Still though they could have an upgrade without destroying the classical look of the building. Very nice rooftop. Needs a little clean up.

This place was absolutely amazing. It is a very cute hotel in the center of old havana but the hotel staff and their attention to detail is what did it for me. Firs off and most importantly the staff makes you feel like family. They tell you the do's and donts of navigating the city they also helped us to book tours with local trusted drivers so we wouldnt get scammed. The food was amazing!!! I litterally ate breakfast there every day. The hotel staff is very attentive and very kind. I got a cold one day and at some point every single staff member checked on me and asked if there was anything they could do for me. This by far exceeded my expectations and i will for sure stay here next time im in town. Thank you staff for your hospitality and making us feel like family.

This is the place to start your visit in Old Havana. Staff was helpful answering questions before we arrived, arranged transportation from the airport, met us with a drink, changed our money, and gave us on-point advice for exploring. Staff was very engaging. And, some of the best food we had on the trip, both breakfast and dinner. They even accommodated my food allergy. Wonderful.

The staff in particular Sandor, Rolando and Jorge, were fantastic, so knowledgable and helpful with advising us on places to visit, the best places to eat and organising tours.
It was so well maintained, clean and the breakfast and bar were wonderful, as was the environment, also a great location within close walking distance to everything.
As with all of Cuba the electricity was a bit patchy (no fault of the hotel) just the way it is.
I highly recommend Hostal Balcones Muralla.

Hosts were very kind and helpful with anything we needed, especially with arranging transportation/tours. Cooks are particularly good and food ended up being some of the best we had in the area. The space itself is very well kept and charming, the dining common area and the rooms have a great vibe. Strong recommend if you are staying in Habana Vieja.

We absolutely loved our stay here at this beautiful historic converted home. From our arrival through to our departure and everything in between we received nothing short of the most amazing warm Cuban hospitality offered in Old Havana . Richard and his team bent over backwards to make our stay comfortable and memorable at Hostal Balcones. Mariana the manager is an absolute angel who made sure each day for us was easily planned organising bookings and transport along the way. The rest of the beautiful Balcones staff also made us so very much at home that we almost felt like family. It’s a thoughtfully restored historical home that has been filled with eclectic collections of antiques and curiosities and you really feel you are stepping back in time with so much to admire and enjoy. With a very generous breakfast included daily cooked by the lovely Louisandra the chef, to laughs and salsa dancing with our room maid Jordania followed by our vote of the best Mojito in Havana in a tea pot made by Mariana the mixologist manager our stay couldn’t have been more perfect. Do yourself a favour and get a taste of Cuban life in the centre of old Havana by booking your stay at this gem.

I thoroughly recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to experience Havana Vieja. The hotel itself was really nicely decorated and extremely clean. The room was exactly how it looked in the pictures. The breakfast was probably the best I’ve had in Cuba. Various courses and far more creative than the standard Cuban breakfast. All the staff spoke really good English and were so friendly and helpful. They even helped by listening to some voice messages I had to help me translate them and reply so that I could organise my transport. On the night I arrived I didn’t want to go out for the evening so the barman sat and chatted with me, keeping me company and telling me the history of Cuba. A fantastic hotel! I will certainly be staying here again next time I go to Havana.

I loved this hotel. The staff welcomed me on arrival with a tasty cocktail and continued to be very warm and helpful throughout my two night stay. The full breakfast was delicious and filling. The location was perfect in the heart of Plazza Vieja. I did a night tour which ended just down the road from my hotel. The decor is unique with interesting relics on the walls and in the rooms. Next trip to Habana _ I will stay here again!

Our stay at Hostal Balcones was perfect. Lovely room, nice location in the heart of Old Havanna and there was always a personal and warm welcome when we got home from an excursion around the city - at any time of the day or night. Really, the heart of Hostal Balcones are the people. Mariana, Henri, Ronaldo and the lovely ladies in the kitchen: thank you from the bottom of my heart to make us feel so welcome and to help us find our way around Cuba. Thank you for really nice conversations, for a wonderful breakfast and for welcoming us back after our four-day-trip to Trinidad just for the few hours we had before leaving to the airport. If I ever come back, I'll be sure to stay with you.

The staff were super nice and kind, the breakfast was good, the location was very close to historical places in old Havana, but the neighborhood was very dirty, the room didnt have safety box, refrigerator, tv , air dryer,and..we had to fix the shower ourselves, drinks in the dining room were so expensive for Cuba, and it was cuban rum! I would say for 150 Canadian dollers for a night there might be better places in better neighborhoods.

It was such a great decision to stay here in Old Havana. Not only do you get the full Havana experience, the staff were so friendly, attentive and professional. Mariana and Henry deserve a special mention. Nothing was too much to ask and their dedication to the people staying there was as good, if not better than I have ever experienced around the world.
