Paseo 206

Beautiful accommodations. The owner and the staff were so outgoing and friendly it was like being home. The rooms were Tastefully decorated in fifty's period pieces. The shower in the bathroom was luxurious. First class venue to spend a week in Cuba.

As a Cuban-American, I've made many trips to Havana. Once I found Paseo 206 in 2016, I've never stayed anywhere else--it has become my home in Havana, and the wonderful owners and staff made it feel like a homecoming when I returned this month. It is a boutique hotel truly worthy of its affiliation with Small Luxury Hotels of the World--something I had never before seen in Cuba. The location is central, the decor is gorgeous, and every stay is unforgettable.

You will never find a place like this again :) The hotel is a small sanctuary within Havana, decorated and furnished with a lot of love for detail and design - we enjoyed to wander through the house and discover pieces of art in every corner, and several series of photography. In its eclectic style, the place offers luxurious accomodation, but in a very calm, "feel at home" kind of way. But what makes the Paseo 206 extraordinary is its staff. A team of young and lively Habaneros and Habaneras who run the hotel with so much heart and spirit - it was a true pleasure to meet them. It was not just great service, but the feeling of being invited to stay as a friend. Andrea, the owner, has a fantastic repertoire of suggestions of what to see and do off the touristy paths - and if you decide to do some of them, he has everything organised instantly. We loved every minute of our stay and it definitely won't be the last!

I have been 8 days on Paseo. The staff was warming, helpful and did everything to make us feel comfortable and welcomed, as if we were in our own home. All the team was very attentive and dedicated.
The room is comfy and spacious.
Restaurant Eclectico is a plus! Very good breakfast, well done food with an wonderful Italian taste. The tiramissu is a perfection.
For sure I will choose Paseo 206 for my next trip to Cuba.

Amazing atmosphere. Fantastic Staff. We stayed in Havana for three days with no agenda. The staff went above and beyond to make sure we had an authentic experience and visited the best restaurants and landmarks. I can't say enough about their hospitality and cleanliness of their hotel. And, they had the BEST cappuccinos and the food was perfect.

What a sublime experience we had at Paseo 206. The couple who owns this gem of a hotel have created a warm, welcoming, professional and most of all beyond relaxing atmosphere. Everything was perfect from the delectable breakfasts, to the wonderful staff and of course the amazing rooms! Our group of 13 (!) was there during the hurricane last month and we didn't even know there was one until the next morning when we woke up. While the rest of Havana sadly had no power, their generator was churning and enabled us to have a wonderful last evening in Havana. I cannot recommend this hotel enough!

I couldn't think of staying anywhere else in Havana.

This hotel is elegant and welcoming.

All the finer details have been considered for comfort and service.

Exceptional staff are always on hand to help with recommendations, taxi's and anything else you need.

The beds are plush with Frette linen and the rain shower in the bathroom is a godsend ( as is the air conditioning)

Dining at the Eclectico restaurant offers an authentic Italian menu. A great option if you need a break from the local fare.

Located away from the hustle and grit, but still close enough to everything.

I want to thank Andrea and his team for making it a wonderful stay.

What a great experience I had at Paseo 206. Diana who owns this gem of a hotel with her husband was amazingly warm. They created a welcoming, professional and most of all beyond relaxing atmosphere. Everything was perfect from the delectable breakfasts, to the most talented musicians who plays jazz at night and to the amazing rooms! Special thanks to Humberto, Javier, Viviana, Sharon and Arturo. You really made it extra special for me. I was traveling alone yet it felt like home.

It was our last night in Cuba and we had only missed two of the top restaurants in Havana. The Eclectico was on our list but we were going to miss it. We ended up at their doorstep after the restaurant we were going to was closed. Even though they were fully booked they arranged the private library so that we could eat there. Thank goodness they did because the meal was outstanding!.

I had read several reviews that the prices were high but we felt they were extremely reasonable in comparison to the other high end restaurants. We paid 12 to 18 CUC per meal and had two excellent wines at 25 CUC each. The wine was far superior to any we had elsewhere.

I had the special which was described as a mini lobster on black ink squid risotto. It was what we call a crayfish or freshwater lobster at home. I have no idea how they found one that large or how they imparted so much flavor into the dish but it was outstanding. From the first bite to the last it was spectacular. I practiced my mindfulness eating so I could savor the flavor as long as possible. My friends all loved their meals of raviolis, chicken and fish. I must say I was lost in my meal and our conversation and only noticed their empty plates at the end of the meal. Everyone agreed it was the best meal of the trip. DO NOT MISS THE DESSERTS! Four of us ordered the Tiramisù and it was outstanding and I can’t wait to try and recreate it back home. Most restaurants slap together a soggy messy cake with mediocre flavor and Eclectico made it a work of art where every flavor shined through. It was light, fresh and packed with flavor. I wish I could of transported it back home to the states! We also ordered Zabaglione semifreddo with seasonal fruit and they loved it. It was gone before I had a chance to taste it.

The server was excellent and the owner of the hotel stopped in several times to make sure we were happy. All this for a group that just showed up at their doorstep when they were already fully booked.

We loved the meal, staff/service, atmosphere, live music and will make sure we go back on our next trip! This is a don’t miss while visiting Cuba!

I so enjoyed this hotel. The location was perfect, the staff and owners were attentive, helpful and gracious, the bedding and bathrooms were all top notch. And, my favorite part... the front patio where my husband and I would enjoy an evening cocktail and he would smoke his cigars.

I can't say much about the hotel itself as I didn't stay there, but the restaurant was amazing.
The service and the food was of very high quality. I went there twice while staying in Havana and was so grateful to have found this little gem. I highly recommend getting the Tiramisu!!

Best food we had so far in havana the lazania was exquisite the place was very elegant. The band playing offered the most beautiful songs and rhythms possible. The staff very professional and friendly!

Beautiful small hotel, furnished with great attention to detail. Very friendly staff and good food (top by Cuban standards!). All in all, a very pleasant stay!

We had the most wonderful stay at this beautifully renovated hotel. Restaurant downstairs is a must try and they had music every night! 3min stroll to the sea side walk right by the famous riviera hotel.

The only legit boutique hotel in the country. Far nicer than any of the big hotels. Epic breakfast and dinner (order the carpaccio!). Also home of the very best piña colada I've ever had (among many)

This is the coziest, nicest and friendliest establishment I've ever had the pleasure to patronize. Anyone not staying here while in Havana is doing themselves a disservice.

The entire staff is helpful and professional. The rooms are nicely appointed and very clean. The owners are very involved and lovely people. I highly recommend Paseo 206!

Was in the restaurant last week, excellent food and so good service. Returned the next day for dinner again.
Thank you again :-)

Great style, phenomenally professional and friendly service, yummy food and good location. Class act! Highly recommended.

Good food and music
