Madero Bed and Breakfast

  This is the perfect place to stay for a few nights in Havana. You can step out of the B&B and within minutes you are strolling around the old... read more town. The staff are really friendly and helpful, the breakfasts delicious and the wifi, for Cuba anyway, pretty good. The house is also very stylish. We had standard rooms at the back of the house on the ground and third floors. Initially disappointed not to have a view and only a small window high up in the wall, in the end we were glad. Havana is a noisy city and the B&B is on a crumbling residential street where neighbours play music through loud sound systems into the night. If you are a light sleeper like me then ask for a room at the back. There is a lovely little roof terrace from where you can watch neighbourhood life and catch a breeze. Highly recommended.

  This was our first Bed and Breakfast experience and I have to say it was absolutely wonderful.
Location is excellent, walking distance to the main attractions in the Old Habana.... read more As soon as you enter you fell at peace . Even though there are tourist and neighbors walking around the area, you don’t hear them when you are at Madero .It is a very quiet place , rooms have the perfect size and you find everything you need in there . There is a nice terrace on the top floor , very relaxing as well.
Breakfast is excellent; there is a menu with plenty and good options to choose to start the day . The quality of everything we had was excellent , and the service outstanding . All the personal that works at Madero was very respectful and warm making us feel at home.
The owners are frequently around , and you see them checking everything and even talking with the customers making sure everything is not ok , but excellent.
We can’t wait to go back not only to be able to spend time with family and friends, but to stay at this home away from home.
Thank you Madero for the excellent service, the best of luck and we will be back soon .

Both companies use Medero as their default Casa for their clients for the Havana part of their stay and I can understand why. Not only are the hosts superb with nothing too much trouble, they will even go to the bank for you and change your currency (no charge and good rate) so don't queue at the airport. Welcome drinks, lovely rooms spotless and great facilities including a wonderful roof terrace.
Breakfast is fruit, fruit juice and eggs, ham etc. any way you like (we had omlettes, super) and toast with jam, all very adequate.
Better still they have WiFi. You can just log-in for social media but if you want full internet you need to use one of the Etecsa cards which they sell for CUC2 (you get 1 hr for that but you can log in and out.
They don't have a bar or restaurant, other than what you can buy in the room fridge, but don't worry turn right out of the Madero and walk 25yds to the Residencia, Santa Clara just down the road. Great drinks and wonderful food in their boutique restaurant/bar at half the prices you will pay in the Plaza Veija (they also have WiFi).
