Nice and friendly staff, very accommodating. Beautiful hotel, old but with a character. Excellent location, near Malecón and multiple restaurants. Would recommend.

Absolutely beautiful building. Great attentive staff. Very comfortable pillows and mattress.
Rooms were clean on arrival but had to pay for further room service and I was there three nights.
I've dropped a star because I think the room was a little over priced, esp combined with the fact you have to pay for your room to be cleaned.
WiFi was brilliant though, well when there was no blackout (which cannot be helped by anyone), no disconnecting like a lot of places I've stayed and didn't block me from doing every day admin.
Front door was kept locked, so great for security.

We had a wonderful experience! The staff and the attention was excellent.
The only area that needs improvement is the quality of the restaurant’s food and the prices which are extremely high in comparison with the food’s current prices in other restaurants that provide excellent quality around the area.

This property was brilliant - fully old colonial style, fantastic rooms. We felt quite royal being able to spend time here. Staff were excellent, serviced well, polite, and almost all spoke English (which is rare in Cuba). The hotel had a VPN built in to its WiFI, which was brilliant, which we also never experienced before. We also had the best breakfast ever. Overall - vey happy !!!!

The room (e.g. the bathroom) was really clean, but the entire hostal is over 100 years old. It is true that it was kept in a good condition (the furniture were super old school), however sleeping in a 100 year old bed and room wasn't the coolest feeling in our trip. The room had a smell of old stuff which made us feel suffocating after a couple of minutes of staying inside. I was happy not to sleep more than one night in that room... the breakfast was nice and the staff were very friendly and helpful though. The location to reach the city was also perfect!

Hotel Baron is worth it if you want to experience staying at a beautiful colonial building. The service is good and people are helpful, although breakfast was a bit disappointing. The price is comparatively high, given that you don’t me never get a better experience than in many casas particulares, but worth a night stay if you value the aesthetics of the building.

Breakfast was amazing especially the pancakes.it is well situated only a few minutes walk to the main square which has amazing architecture, restaurants and salsa bars. I would highly recommend this.

We stayed here for one night while visiting Cienfuegos. This is an old palace which was and still is renovated. You find a lot of nice little details and decos everywhere, every room in the palace is beautifully decorated. We had a room with a very comfortable queensize bed and a balcony overlooking the street. The room was big but the bathroom was even bigger. The location cannot be better - it is right in the center of Cienfuegos, Parque Marti and the main street are just a few steps away. We parked our car just around the corner and parking was free. We had dinner and breakfast here as well. Both were nice but to be honest we had better meals in "normal" casas and dinner was by far the most expensive we had on our three weeks holiday. So dinner was definitely not worth the money we paid. We also thought that the price we paid for one night here was too much. Everyone was very friendly and helpful but for us everything here was a little bit "too much".

This property is lovely from the moment you walk in the door. It is grand and well located. The rooms are beautiful lots of original features. Staff are welcoming and extremely helpful. The only downside was the mattress on the bed was so thin and not comfy. The air-con also only works at certain times. However I would highly recommend staying here, the view from the roof terrace is stunning. Nice breakfast.

This property looked very good on the ground floor, and is located on a good street, close to the shopping street and the park. However, for the price I paid (approx US$120), i had expected the property to be in better condition. The toilet bowl had no seat cover, the room was dusty and the paint was falling off the ceiling. When I woke ip in the morning, i found 2 juicy bed bugs sharing my bed. When I squashed them, there was fresh blood! The lady in charge ordered a cab to bring me to Trinidad. A classic car turned up, so I was really happy, only to be horrified when the classic car turned into service station and bumped us off the car into a rickety old car for the rest of our trip!

The hotel was built in 1912, but very well maintained. All the rooms are lovely and it was like a “stay at a palace”. All the staff are very friendly, kind and helpful. It’s worth the price. I recommend everyone to stay at this hotel.
It could be better if they can provide mini-bar (refrigerator) and sufficient amount of hot water.
