![]() We got our own room a block away from the main building. At first Julio told us about Havana and a little bit of how to move around the city. The Hostal is located in a very good place just a walking distance from the center of Havana. When we got to Havana airport, Hostal Peregrino had arranged us a transport from the airport to the hostal. ![]() Elsa and Julio are definitely sincere and kind people who will make sure you will get the best out of Havana. We will highly recommend Elsa & Julios place to all travelers. We stayed at Hostal Peregrino last March during our visit in Havana. Oh, don't be put off by the word 'Hostal' either, your not going to end up in dorm here! Wonderful place There may other fantastic casas in Havana but I can't imagine anywhere else being better for the holiday we were on. If you are an independent backpacker with time to spare and fluent Spanish then this is merely a great place to stay, if you are like us though with no plan or time and don't know your cervezas from your cojones, then this is simply the perfect place to be! Many thanks Elsa & Julio, hope to see you again! The Hostal and surrounding Casas are perfectly located to see all of old Havana, the traditional old bit and the tourist old bit. Elsa & Julio clearly have a nice little set up going being the central point of a thriving little travel empire. Their front room also doubles as a waiting room/library to meet up with friends and wait for the rain to end (we went in 'winter'). As neither of us speak a word of Spanish it was incredibly useful to have their local knowledge and we put ourselves entirely in their hands organising trips into the countryside and planning the rest of our holiday. ![]() Both Elsa & Julio are fantastically helpful and their house acts as a travel hub for dozens of people all the time so it's a great way of swapping advice and meeting people over their excellent breakfast and dinners. Since we arrived on a last minute holiday without even a Lonely Planet to help us it was fantastic to land on our feet here. We were put up in local associated casas, which were great but not as nice as Elsa & Julio's place which is lovely. We couldn't have asked for a better place to find. We stayed 4 nights in total at the beginning and end of our short trip to Cuba.
