I've been to Ambos Mundos in April 2008. I was a bit freightened because it was a 2 star hotel and i was informed that the stars in Cuba are a bit different from what i'm used to. I asked for a room with a view. Because there's interior rooms. As my expectations were low, I liked it very much.... more

Despite all the other negative reviews and I can understand how that could happen after seeing some of the windowless rooms we had a wonderful stay. Lets start with the fact that we had the best room other than Papa's on the 5th floor. Large corner room with new beds and a remodeled bathroom with good water pressure. It was... more

I have been staying on three different occasions in different rooms on my recent central america and caribbean trip with 2 friends of mine, purely traveling on leisure purpose. Well, what can I say.. this hotel is in a fantastic and very attractive spot right in the middle of the old town with easy access to the harbour, shops, museums,... more

Decided to book a two centre holiday in Cuba, three nights in Havana and seven nights in Jibacoa. We chose Ambos, because it was fairly small and becuase of the history with Hemingway. We were not disappointed with it, the lobby had an old-fashioned 30's feel to it, with the pianist playing and the bar being the main focal point.... more

The Ambos Mundos hotel is perfectly located in the very center of Old Havana, near Plaza de Armas. It has a wonderful view from the roof where breakfast is served. The only thing to have to check is that they give you a room with a window ! Some rooms haven't... We were shown three rooms before we got one... more

We really enjoyed the hotel Ambos Mundos. Yes, it is overpriced but it´s hard to get a place in a good location in Havana that isn´t and trust us the less you pay the less you get. There are some really grotty places here. Make sure when booking here you ask for a room with a view or you´re stay... more

We only stayed in this hotel as when we arrived at Hotel Florida (2 blocks away) to start our Honeymoon we were told that they had a problem with their airconditioning and had to stay one night at this hotel. We were allocated the room below where Ernest Hemingway stayed which had lovely large windows overlooking the square & street.... more

The Ambos Mundos is right in the heart of Old Hanana within minutes of all the Historic sights, museums and Catherdral. The moment you enter this hotel you step back in time 50 years. This is the place that Hemingway chose to live for seven years during his stay in Cuba and his room is open to viewing by tourists... more

The hotel is excellently sited for sightseeing and walking around old Havana. Unfortunately, our group, of over 10 people were moved from room to room over the course of the week. The hotel told us this was because they were renovating the rooms, but no work was done on the rooms. This caused a lot of hassle, as you can... more
