About the hotel
In 1867, the royal splendor and luxurious comfort of the magnificent palace of Count Santovenia made this a favorite among merchants, artists, scholars, and renowned travelers passing through the capital. A century later, the hotel reopened its doors, and guests will be delighted to discover that its majestic elegance and comfort have been preserved. The most elite hotel in Havana. Santa Isabel has welcomed many modern celebrities, including famous actors, directors, and musicians.
It is located on the eastern side of Plaza de Armas in the building of the Palacio de los Condes de Santovenia, the former residence of the Spanish court. In 1998, this three‑story Baroque building was renovated, and the hotel received five‑star status. Unlike other luxury hotels in the city, the price here matches the level and quality of service. All 17 rooms embody colonial charm, with elegant furniture and paintings by contemporary Cuban artists enhancing the atmosphere. It is no surprise that former U.S. President Jimmy Carter stayed at this hotel during his visit to Cuba in 2002.
