Hotel Capri, hotel in Cuba
Hotel Capri is a 1950s building in the Vedado neighborhood of Havana, situated on a hill near the waterfront Malecón. It has roughly 220 rooms with modern comfort, a rooftop pool with city views, the Salón Rojo event hall, and several restaurants and bars throughout its common areas.
The hotel was built in the 1950s and was known for its connection to the famous casino scene that attracted visitors and gamblers. After the revolution, it preserved its character while being modernized over time, keeping its historical appearance.
The hotel's name comes from the Italian island of Capri, reflecting the international style of the 1950s. This cosmopolitan taste still appears today in the Salón Rojo hall and the Art Deco patterns on the walls, giving the space a sense of old-world elegance that guests notice while relaxing by the rooftop pool.
The hotel is easily accessible by taxi, with the airport about 20 kilometers away and a drive of roughly 30 minutes. Many sights like Revolution Square and Old Havana are within walking distance or a short taxi ride, and staff speak both Spanish and English.
The rooftop pool offers an unusual view of Havana's night skyline with sparkling lights, making it a special spot for evenings. The feeling of floating above the city while hearing music from nearby bars creates a memorable impression that many visitors describe as a highlight of their stay.
