Great private boutique family owned hotel in old Havana. 7 rooms in total, and also has a restaurant/bar serving breakfast (included in my room rate) and lunch. Lots of hot water in the shower, reliable power and wifi. Friendly staff (Yuliet, Serguey, and Amin) that can assist in advising and booking all your needs. Conveniently located within walking distance to all the main downtown attractions. Highly recommend!

Excellent staff, who treated you like one of the family. Restaurant and bar first rate. Rooms were small, particularly bathroom/toilet, but we knew that going in. Good location, walking distance to most things in the old town. No elevator, so might not be suitable for less mobile travellers. Only compliant would be the noise, as the walls were thin. We could hear doors opening and closing in nearby rooms, which did wake us up a few times when other guests arrived back late. Overall though, loved it.

Friendly, polite, and honest Cubans work here. This was my first time in Cuba and thanks to this place my experience was fantastic. When we come back to Cuba again we will stay here again. Tip: When walking through the city I met so many nice Cubans who are more then willing to help, and some but not all will ask for a little help, so carry with you some pesos to give in return; this is a very poor country so giving little goes a long way for them and their families.

We spent 7 nights at Residencia Santa Clara and were very pleased with our accommodations, the room was great, AC worked wonderfully......and the entire staff was absolutely amazing and went out of their way to make everything about our stay better. Food was delicious and plentiful.......and breakfast hit the spot very morning. Yuliet, Amin, & Serquey took great care of everything we needed......when we left it felt like we were leaving family. Absolutely recommend and we will stay here again.

We really enjoyed our stay! Sergey, Amin and another younger staff were all very helpful, fun and welcoming. We always enjoyed good drinks and conversation with them in the bar. The hotel is in a great area - safe, family oriented and on a quiet street. The rooms were modern, well maintained and all had AC!
