Since the Lido Hotel is in Central Havana, near the Prado and La Habana Vieja, it could hardly be more centrally located. It is not in one of the poshest Cuban streets. In fact many of the buildings are quite literally falling down around you; so it is best to walk in the middle of the road. A stark reminder of the consequences of the internationally recognised "illegal" US embargo and sanctions against Cuba. However for many this just adds to the interest and charm of the place.

Hotel Lido is the place to be, to experience buzzing street life like nowhere else on the planet, while surrounded by street after street of still magnificent Spanish colonial architecture. In every direction and in every moment there is a new unmissable photo opportunity. Maybe this (and its low price), is why it is one of cubahotelbookings.com most popular hotels.

The Islazul Hotel Lido has 65 air-conditioned rooms, all with private bath (cold water only) and telephone, TV, grill, snack bar, cafeteria, currency exchange, safety deposit box and taxi service. Has a pleasant terrace that stays open late into the night. Fifth floor rooftop bar has a fascinating view of Havana.

(Until late 2004 the Hotel Islazul Lido was known as Hotel Horizontes Lido)
