財産 — Chacón 160
Chacón 160 is a small colonial hotel in Old Havana, built around a leafy inner courtyard that doubles as a breakfast terrace. The vibe is understated: white walls, dark wood, a few antique chairs, and no fuss. It suits travellers who want clean, central accommodation without pretending to be luxury — the real draw is the location, two blocks from the Plaza Vieja, and the fact you're sleeping inside a restored 18th-century building, not a generic box.
Havanaの歴史
Havana was founded in 1519 by Diego Velázquez on the island's north coast, its deep natural harbour quickly making it Spain's key trading port in the Americas. The city's architecture is a layered mix of Spanish Baroque, neoclassical and art deco, shaped by waves of wealth from sugar and tobacco. The 1959 revolution froze much of the old town in time, and its gradual, uneven restoration since the 1990s has turned the historic core into a living museum. Today, Havana is a city of crumbling facades, live music on every corner, and a cautious, state-managed tourist economy that's both vibrant and frayed.
訪れるのに最適な時間
Havana完全ガイド →最高の月
November to April: dry season with clear skies, high 20s°C, and the city's cultural calendar in full swing. December and January are particularly pleasant for walking tours.
ピーク/フェスティバル Surge
January (Havana’s anniversary festivities) and late February (Cuban cigar festival) see the highest visitor numbers. Hotel rates can double, and Chacón 160 often books out weeks ahead — plan six months in advance.
予算肩の季節
May and October. May is less humid than June, and October sits just before the dry season's ramp-up, offering 30% lower prices on rooms and quieter streets.
天気&パッケージ
July in Havana is hot (30-33°C) and humid, with a high chance of brief, torrential afternoon downpours. Pack a lightweight, quick-dry poncho or a travel umbrella, and bring only sandals or breathable canvas trainers — boots are a mistake.
LIVE CITY BRIEFING — Havana
- Old Havana’s water supply has been unreliable in summer 2025, with intermittent cuts in the Chacón area — ask the hotel if they have a backup tank or bottled water.
- The new cycle-lane network along the Malecón is now open, making it feasible to rent a bicycle to escape the tourist crush — just watch for potholes and aggressive taxi drivers.
- Cuba's ongoing fuel shortages mean fewer long-distance buses and taxis, so expect delays to/from José Martí Airport; book a private pre-paid transfer well in advance.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Chacón 160, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a rear-facing room on floors 3 or 4. Those rooms sit above street-level clatter but below any roof-level activity, and the back elevation avoids the main road.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the ground floor or floor 2. Ground-floor rooms pick up lobby noise and pavement chatter; floor 2 sits close to the low-height lift machinery and any street-level bar or restaurant sound.
Best views
Front-facing rooms on floor 4 offer a view of the Havana street life and period architecture. But they come with more noise — trade-off worth knowing.
Quietest floors
Floors 3 and 4 are the quietest — far enough from the street and lift motor, and with fewer passing guests.
🔊 Noise notes
The hotel is on a central Havana street, so expect honking, revving motorbikes, and late-night pedestrian noise, especially at weekends. Rooms at the back are significantly quieter even on lower floors.
Insider tips
If you value quiet, book a rear-facing room and confirm it at check-in. The lift is small and slow — request a floor no higher than 4 to avoid waiting or taking the stairs with luggage.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Havanaのトップ観光スポット
💡 Go early (8-9am) before tour groups arrive. The adjacent Museo de Arte Colonial costs a couple of CUP but gives rooftop views of the plaza for free once you're inside.
💡 Start at the Hotel Nacional end, walk east towards Havana Vieja during late afternoon when the breeze picks up. Watch for crumbling seawall sections after storms.
💡 Take a bus or taxi from central Havana (about 15 mins). No security or fences around it; it's a regular neighbourhood park. Best visited late afternoon when it's cooler and the sun makes the bronze glow. The nearest cafe sells decent iced coffee.
💡 Skip the overpriced audio guide. Bring small CUP notes for the locked donation boxes in some rooms. The Granma Memorial outside (the yacht used in the 1956 landing) is free to view through the fence; you can see it from outside the museum grounds.
💡 Arrive by 8pm on Thursday or Friday to avoid huge queues. Pay in CUP at the door if you have it; the card machine sometimes fails. Check their Facebook page for schedule changes.
