Among the finest hotels in Havana, Cuba, the Saratoga offers spacious rooms, tasty eats, and a rooftop terrace and pool - all dressed to the nines in the ornate historical garb Cuba is infamous for.
EXPERIENCE
They say that Havana is "frozen in time." The city is possessed of a charm that has remained unchanged for decades - cars, buildings, and public squares - and while this is a good thing, it may not be what you're looking for in a hotel. Luckily, the Hotel Saratoga has kept up with the times.
Here, in the heart of Central Havana, you'll find the most modern of five-star comforts in each of the hotel's 96 rooms and suites; yet not a moment goes by when the neoclassical pedigree of the building isn't somehow (enjoyably) evident.
With so many must-see locations nearby, enjoy the ease of exploring on foot, knowing you're never far from home. Back at the Saratoga, freshen up in your spacious bathroom's deep tub or luxurious walk-in shower. Dine at one of the Saratoga's restaurants, or sip a famous Mojito on the rooftop terrace. Said terrace also boasts a glistening pool, and views in the city that are something worth toasting.
