Hotel Beltran de Santa Cruz, Old Havana, Cuba
An elegant big house from the 18th Century, located very closely to the Plaza Vieja, one of Old Havana’s most beautiful squares, opens as a cozy hotel, where the combination of modern and old architectural elements stresses the originality of its attractive design.
This noble house, built by Gabriel Beltrán de Santa Cruz's parents, the first San Juan de Jaruco Count, later belonged to the distinguished Cárdenas de Monte Hermoso Marquis's descendants.
The most illustrious visitors to the city gathered in this house: the Baron Alejandro de Humboldt; eminent German scientist, and three French princes, the Beaujolais Count, the Montpensier and the Orleáns Dukes.
The Orleans Duke later became Philip I of France. The Beltrán de Santa Cruz hotel, an exquisite hotel that is reborn in the old city, will leave indelible memories on you.
Hotel Beltran de Sant Cruz is located near the Plaza Vieja, in the heart of Old Havana.

Devon, Rating: 4 of 5, Date of Stay: December 2008
Lovely old restored colonial house right on the edge of the tourist route in old Habana, a few metres from La Plaza Vieja. Nice big rooms with en suite, with those on the first floor giving onto a balcony overlooking a central courtyard used for breakfast. Good, friendly service. Very handy for visiting old Habana and just a spit away from the Muralla bar/restaurant which boasts some of the best beer in the city. Only one negative as we had to request hot water to be put on from reception and it didn't always last long enough for 2 people to shower. Certainly one of the cheaper hotels in Old Habana but I would recommend booking beforehand through an agency to ensure a place and get a better deal. We struggled to find a night for our return to the capital before flying home and had to use a large amount of our precious cash to go the Frailes hotel nearby which was the same price but not as nice.
