Because of internal flight time changes, due to it being 1st May, Revolution Day, we ahd to stay at the Telegrafo for 1 night. It's lobby and exterior are fantastic, it's rooms are as you'd expect from a 4* in Cuba. Go to the restaurant and although you'll pay top rates for the food, their steaks are worth every peso.... more

We stayed at the Hotel Telegrafo for two nights and the Paradisus Princesa del mar resort, Varadero for the remaining twelve (also reviewed). Firstly the flight, was on time and what we have come to expect as... more

We stayed there for four nights. The hotel is well located for walking around Havana Vieja (the old town) and close to the best paladre in town - la Guarida. Clean and average size double room with two dwouble beds. Had a leaking air conditioning system in the bedroom. We did not complain as it was not that big of... more

We arrived early hours of the morning, after a 10 hour flight delay. The reception staff were great and got us to our rooms quickly so we could get some much needed rest. Our room was huge, we had booked a standard room, but were lucky enough to be upgraded to a suite with a lounge, bedroom, toilet and a... more

I had made a reservation for 3 nights in Hotel Telegrafo. When I arrived at the hotel, the lady at the reception desk asked my voucher. Unfortunately I had forgotten it in Istanbul. She insisted that my name wasn’t on the list. Then another lady came and somehow found my name, but this time they said there wasn’t any room... more

I stayed at the Telegrafo Hotel for two weeks in May ... I have stayed there in the past but was a bit apprehensive this time because of the reports of theft and prostitution ... Because of that and the fact I'm a bit paranoid .. I brought a miniature camera and recorder that records over 6 hours of video... more

Having read all the previous reviews we decided to just give the hotel a go and have an open mind. Thankfully our stay was only 2 nights at the beginning of our holiday. We had a large room that overlooked the internal courtyard where the bar was. If you are used to a smoking ban this was a bit irritating... more

Stayed here for a long weekend with my girlfriend. Great base to explore old Havana- all the major sites are in walking distance. Rooms were fine, if a little dated, and we had a nice view over the old square. Street side cafe on ground floor was nice for evening drinks. Food not great, but certainly no worse than anything... more

We stayed at the Telegrafo for a night and had a very good experience with none of the problems mentioned. The room was comfortable with everything we needed and the decoration of room, lobby and public areas was quite new and in good condition. We had some food from the bar which was decent and some very good mojitos -... more

Myself (female) and 3 men stayed at this hotel for 2 nights prior to chartering a yacht to sail around the cays off the south coast. I was mindful of the previous comments re staff, attitude and lost reservations. On arrival the staff were very friendly, efficient, and helpful. The rooms were very large and clean. I had warned the... more
