We had a great experience at El Candil, beautiful property and very clean. Yanetxi and Rosabel were extremely helpful to arrange transportation, tours to explore the city and to provide us with tips on things to do or things to avoid. The food was very good comparing to what is available around the area. We definitely recommend El Candil as we enjoyed our stay with them.

El Candil is a really special place. The staff are wonderful, professional people, and look out for you. The property is pristine, comfortable, and (important for me) quiet. The restaurant serves really good food and you are within walking distance of tasty paladares. If you want to go into Havana, taxis are just a call away. The staff are linked up to a great network of tour guides who can take you wherever. I had such a great stay and will absolutely come back. Thank you, gracias to the brilliant team of people at El Candil.

Yanxtey went above and beyond with her excellent costumer service, honestly all the staff was great and wonderful. The hotel was very clean and the room was big and nice . The only downside is the internet which is really bad , so basically no internt at my room I had to go in certain area at the lobby to get some signal . The hotel is away from only havan like 10 miuntes drive. Definitely I will be back if they work on the internet.

Sublimely extravagant boutique hotel. We have stayed in many luxury hotels and few boutique hotels and El Candil is by far the most amazing experience (yes it's not a stay it's an experience) we have ever had the pleasure of. The staff are all so friendly and welcoming and there is nothing they won't do for you. Arranging tours, transfers and great advice. Attention to detail is in every aspect of your experience. We were treated to a roof top terrace with only one other guest. A barman/server and two chefs! We felt like Royalty. Fresh cocktails made to order and beautiful food made fresh to order whilst soaking up the relaxing atmosphere of the private (for guest) roof terrace. The room is beautifully decorated,again with attention to detail in everything. The bed, bedding and pillow are sumptuous. We can't recommend El Candil enough our only regret was not booking this hotel for our entire stay in Havana. We will definitely be back and cannot recommend the hotel and it's staff enough.

The hotel is about 10 minutes by taxi out of the old Havana area, it felt safe and welcoming the minute you arrived. Yanetxy and Rosebel were most helpful and accommodating at this beautiful boutique hotel. We were given suggestions were to eat and how to stay safe while touring around Havana. They were instrumental in arranging our vintage car tour of Havana which was incredible! There is a roof top bar and a restaurant that serves amazing food. Definitely will stay here again when we come back to Cuba!

Excellent on all Levels, Great and Beautiful place. Excellent food as well, ama,ing chef and very quiet location. My one and only complain which is very minor is that i was charged $3.00 (us) for a very, very, very small cup of coffee and it was even half full!!! I thought it was absurd. But over all experience was Excellent. Would definitely recommend and would definitely return.

A real gem!
This hotel is beautiful, clean and comfortable. The staff are so lovely and helpful. We really enjoyed our stay here and would recommend to anyone looking for a quiet stay in a special place with genuine staff. We stayed here with a toddler and it was great could he could play in the courtyard as we were on the ground floor suite. We were even able to rent a stroller which meant one less thing to travel with. The food was also really good. We loved our stay here and would go back again!

Absolutely loved this privately owned hotel! The staff was super friendly and recommended places to eat and stuff to do. It was the main reason why I booked this spot. They were easy to get ahold of, made sure we had a ride to and from the airport and anything we did! Definitely would stay here again.
