Before 1959 Riviera was a legend - Frank Sinatra asisted the Grand opening of the hotel. Now I found it still charming and good value for the money. Take room on the 19 floor, the best are with the terrace. The pool is quite nice. More

Recently stayed as part of a group. At first, the lobby makes for a decent impression, as do the restaurants on the main floor. You get to your room, and if you're fortunate to have a high floor and great view, you're still felling good. And then reality sets in: Lobby is smokey, lounge chairs are stained with grime and...

During our stay I found 2 cockroaches in the bathroom- in an 4-star hotel.. 1 of 3 elevator was out of order the 5 days we were there, a... More

On returning to my room before the last night stay at the Habana, I checked the contents of my locked Safe and to my dismay discovered that I had had two £20 notes (sterling) stolen. This I am 100% certain. I immediately went to the room of a friend on the same floor and without giving him a reason, asked... More

We stayed here last week for our final three days in Cuba. We paid 80 cuc per night including 'breakfast'. Our room was on the 18th floor, overlooking the Malecon and the sea. It was quite a stunning veiw through a filthy window. The inside of the window was filthy. The outside wasn't so bad. We rang ahead to pre-book... More

I try to write reviews on every property I have stayed in Cuba, I sincerely had forgotten about the Riviera, For starters the hotel is old and surely shows signs of it. I personally think the hotel has potential to be a great classic hotel in Havana. The rooms are not so bad like everyone mentions, sure they are old,... More
