Hotel Marques de Prado Ameno, Old Havana, Cuba
Address: Calle O'Reilly esq. a Cuba. Old Havana
Very close to both Cathedral Square and Armas Square, the old mansion of Marquises of Prado Ameno appears again, showing its splendour as in the old times. Properly located, just few meters from Obispo Street, the main artery of the historical centre, the large house with its colonial style, recreates the typical Cuban aristocratic house of beginning of 19th century.
In this house the famous black poet Juan Francisco Manzano, served as slave to the Marquises of Prado Ameno family and gained its freedom thanks to the negotiations of several personalities of the time, like Domingo del Monte and Jose de la Luz y Caballeros.
The intimacy, peacefulness and the well preservation of the original arches and frescos, combined with the privacy and the freshness of the patio as well as the sobriety of its decoration, invites to rest in a cosy atmosphere.
Hotel Marques de Prado Ameno is located on O'Reilly Steet, in the heart of old Havana.

Old Havana Travel Guide
Old Havana, which for centuries was inside the walled part of the city, was founded in late 1519. Havana's historic center covers approximately 142 hectares and contains around 3,500 buildings, one seventh of which are of great value. The following are just some of the interesting places to visit: Plaza de Armas (Arms Square) is the most ancient social, political and military core of colonial time. Plaza de la Catedral (Cathedral Square) has one of the most beautiful baroque façades in all of Latin America.
El Templete is a small building of neoclassic style built in 1828 in the place where, under the shade of a ceiba tree, the first mass was said in 1519. Castillo de la Real Fuerza was built between 1558 and 1578 and is the most ancient fortress of Havana City. Palacio de los Capitanes Generales (Captain General’s Palace) is one of the most emblematics of the Cuban baroque. The Parque Central is a square located in the heart of the historical center of Havana, near Paseo del Prado and El Capitolio Building. The Edificio Bacardi (Bacardi Building) is one of the finest examples of the Art Deco movement in Cuba. El Floridita is by far the classiest of the many Hemingway hangouts in Habana.
