Fodor's Expert Review Mercure Hotel Sevilla
Calle Trocadero 55, Havana, La Habana, 10200, Cuba
The setting for several episodes in Graham Greene's Our Man in Havana, this hotel is technically in Centro Habana but right on the edge of La Habana Vieja. Although it has a pleasant, club-like atmosphere and an appealing garden surrounding its swimming pool, the rooms are small and disappointing. Famous guests that once have stayed here include dancer Josephine Baker, gangster Al Capone, and the Spanish flamenco dancer Lola Flores, as well as Mexican muralist David Alfaro Siqueiros.
PROS
- superb view at the rooftop restaurant
CONS
- food here is lamentable
- the hotel's past is more glorious than its present
