Santiago de Cuba

Surprising beautiful city very educational lot to learn about the country very different from Havana large population of Africans mix Creoles very good food very good museums I would recommend people visit Santiago de Cuba it is a city that was built by the French then the Spanish came in so in-depth much
 beautiful architect

Religious

Even though you pay for the pool, you realize that there hasn't been for 5 years..the bad food in the breakfast with the old green and stinky bread..is that in the kitchen they are blind and without noses???is a lack of respect for the useroooo....it was all a bad sound...

This is the last thing I've seen in my life:

Pretty cheap stay near the centre of the city, with walking distance. The place is nice, but the rooms have no windows, so it is kinda a dark. The car can be park at the place, also the hot water in our block was off, we got another room where we could come to take a shower.

Cheap stay

We spent two nights in this hotel in a very quiet but rather eccentric area of Santiago. When we arrived, from the outside, the hotel looked very nice: it was small houses with several rooms. Then we went through the door and unfortunately it was not very clean. Our room was located on the ground floor accessible by a very narrow staircase. The floors were not clean. On the other hand, the bedding and the bathroom are correct on this side. The air conditioning is very loud, it is impossible to sleep with the two running. Finally, no hot water and no water pressure. The reception is smaller. The lunch without fresh fruit and coffee was very good for me, but this place is not good enough for me.

Two nights is enough.

It's a typical state hotel, it's clean but nothing more, the staff is friendly and the hotel is rather eccentric. It's enough for one stage if your plane arrives in the evening.

Just passing... not for a stay

I'm not used to shooting down an establishment, but there, what else to say? What disappointments... the first and the biggest, we boast of the pool. When we get there, we are told that it has not been accessible for....2 years! So why sell us a dream with beautiful photos, especially of the beautiful pool that would have been appreciated with such great heat? In short, a slap... For the rest, small, old and disfigured rooms, and 1 small safe or we are asked to find 2 euros a day. What a small one after learning that there was no pool.

What a disaster!

This is not luxury hotel but the price/value ratio is fantastic.
As stated in the name, the hotel is organized in small villas.
Rooms are large and comfortable with all commodities.
Hotel workers are very keen.
It is well situated in a very calm area, not too far from city center that you can reach with less than 30min walk.

Would return for sure if needed

Very good value

La Villa is located in a residential area, so if you want to enjoy quiet rooms with seasonal designs is the best option.

Tranquility and comfort.

To be honest, I can not give this hotel higher than 3 stars.  None the less, I thoroughly enjoyed my week there, and the staff could not have been nicer or more helpful.  Everyone from the receptionists to the maids to the security guards to the restaurant workers--I would give each of them 5 stars easily!

I went with a dance and music tour, so I don't know the cost of the hotel.  I am sure it was much less than a swanky place like the Mélia Santiago.  My room, in a small separate building, was clean and very spacious.  The problems with the water were not horrible.  I would much rather stay at a place like this than a fancy tourist hotel.  I loved the city and people of Santiago de Cuba, and am yearning to return!

Not fancy but I would stay there again.

I live in Jamaica and went on school trip to Cuba back in 2011. There is simply no where like Cuba. The people are the kindest you'll ever meet in life. They walk around at any time of the day because there's relatively no crime. they have parties everyday after a certain time. They really just know how to have a good time!
Food: is an acquired taste. They don't use preservatives so everything is fresh. They grill everything using only salt and pepper. Their pizzas are TO DIE FOR 
Hotel Gaviota: I really enjoyed this place. Its no five star hotel on Miami Beach but it is pretty clean and comfortable. Its very cultured. They have a pool an restaurant. Its not too far from te town so when we didnt want the food we walked out to the town.

The island is beautiful..
Cuba is always a good idea!!
