Havana 연대기

Havana was founded in 1519 by Spanish colonizers, and its architectural evolution reflects this history, with a mix of Baroque, Neoclassical, and Art Deco styles. The city's cultural identity is deeply rooted in its African, Spanish, and indigenous heritage, which is evident in its music, dance, and art. Havana's historic centre, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, features iconic landmarks like the Capitolio and the Gran Teatro de La Habana. Today, the city is a thriving cultural hub, with a lively arts scene, a rich musical heritage, and a unique blend of traditional and modern influences. As you explore the city, you'll notice the faded grandeur of its colonial past, alongside the vibrant energy of its contemporary culture.

Peak / Festival Surge 근처 오락거리

July is peak season in Havana, with the city hosting the Fiesta del Fuego, a festival of music, dance, and theatre, which draws large crowds and drives up hotel prices. During this month, hotel rates can increase by up to 20%, and popular attractions can get very busy.

날씨 & 포장

Havana's climate is characterized by a wet season from May to October, with frequent rain showers and high humidity, so it's essential to pack lightweight, breathable clothing and waterproof gear. When visiting the city, be sure to bring a compact umbrella and a light jacket for cooler evenings, even during the summer months.

City Briefing 근처 오락거리 — Havana

  • The Havana Metro bus system has recently expanded its routes, making it easier for visitors to get around the city. The famous Malecon seaside promenade is currently undergoing renovations, but it's still open to pedestrians and offers stunning views of the city and the sea. The annual Havana Jazz Festival is scheduled to take place in December, featuring performances by local and international musicians, and is a great event to catch if you're visiting during this time.

Your Perfect Room

✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026

Before you check in to Tio d William, here's what to know about choosing the right room.

Best rooms to request

Request rooms on higher floors (4th floor or above) to minimize street noise. As the hotel is located on a busy street in Habana Vieja, the lower floors (1st-3rd) may be noisier due to traffic and pedestrian activity.

⚠️

Rooms to avoid

Avoid rooms near the service entrance, which may be on lower floors (1st-2nd) and could be affected by delivery and staff activity.

🪟

Best views

As the hotel is located on Calle San Ignacio, which is a narrow street in the old town, the best view options are likely to be from higher floors, possibly with a view of the street or surrounding buildings.

😴

Quietest floors

4th floor and above

🔊 Noise notes

Be prepared for possible noise from traffic, pedestrians, and nearby bars and restaurants, which may be audible from lower floors.

Insider tips

Consider parking at the public car park at Calle Cuba, which is just 200m away and offers a flat rate of 5 CUC per night. Take advantage of the free WiFi in the lobby, which may be a more reliable option than the paid WiFi in rooms, which has a relatively slow speed of 1 Mbps.

How to request your preferred room:
  1. Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
  2. Add a note in your booking comments field
  3. Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Havana 주요 관광지

Plaza de la Catedral Free

💡 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.

Malecón Free

💡 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.

Parque John Lennon Free

💡 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.

Museo de la Revolución

💡 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.

Fábrica de Arte Cubano

💡 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.
