Located at the Malecon, it has huge rooms. Breakfast is quite varied for Cuba. However, the hotel has no charm whatsoever and is totally decrepit. Warm water is a surprise. Sometimes you get lucky, mostly you don't... There is a swimming pool but you're not allowed after 6 o'clock, witch is a bit early.

I stayed her for two nights with a groups of friends. The accommodation was basic and yes there were certain issues like the air conditioning plug and the window not closing properly. However, the rooms was spotlessly clean. The pool was nice and the view from the pool awesome. Breakfast was nice enough. We paid roughly £10 a night each... More

If you are lucky enough to get a room in the higher levels and with sea view, you should like your stay in this hotel. Just stay for max 3 nights... Bathrooms are real basic. The dancing club of the hotel is a place full of hookers, and the staff of the hotel gets his money of this buisness... But... More

I chose this hotel for my last week trip to Havana with my wife and one more couple. I was trying to get something above the average (but not excessively expensive) but without a reasonable explanation everything was booked at least for one of the 5 days I stayed in Havana. So I found full availability on this one. The... More

We spent two nights at this place, bookending a tour of Cuba. To be fair it is spectacularly positioned right on the Malecon, but to get the best views, and avoid the noise, you need a room on an upper floor, which makes you dependent upon the lift from hell. The Bellevue Deauville gives you the typical Cuban experience- blocked... More

I spent two nights at the hotel. The location is perfect just overlooking the Malecon. I managed to walk most places I wanted. Rooms are very basic, yeah water for shower is lukewarm. I am quiet fussy with food for me breakfast didn't appeal at all. But you can get an omlett as the rest is pretty basic. When you... More

It's as most people describe, pretty basic rooms but ours had a good view of the storm and high waves that coincided with our arrival. The second lift is still out of order and the floor in the working one is so springy you get the feeling that you might reach ground floor quicker than you expect. I got propositioned... More

The usual for Cuba, overbooked the first night and taken to another in the hotel chain that was almost less than basic. Deauville was only slightly better. Smoke from other rooms coming in from air condiioner opening on inside wall. No hot water, warm occasionally. Very smokey lobby and bar. (Can you tell I'm asthmatic?) Crazy busy desk clerks, food...

As many other reviewers have pointed out, the Hotel Deauville is NOT the Ritz-Carlton. It's run down, and when I was there there was only one elevator working, which always sounded like it was about to die (it didn't). However, it does have an excellent location, both in terms of views and proximity to Old Havana. All rooms basically have... More

You would need the skills of Charles Dickens to properly describe this place however. I read the negative reviews and thought well, it is Cuba, what do people expect at $30 a night all inclusive in a communist economy. Up front? The staff were kind and tried their best but this place shoudl have been refurbished 30 years ago But... More
