Welcome to Casa Buenos Aires, a family accommodation in beautiful Old Havana, Cuba!
If you're looking for an authentic and unforgettable experience during your stay in Havana, Cuba, look no further. Our family accommodation offers you much more than just a place to rest; we provide a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the warm Cuban culture and discover the true essence of this fascinating island.
At our house, you will be welcomed with open arms and become part of our Cuban family. With us, you will find not only cozy and comfortable rooms but also the opportunity to share unforgettable moments with local people who will show you Old Havana from an intimate and personal perspective.
The highlight of our accommodation lies in the human connection and authentic experiences we offer. By staying with a Cuban family, you will have the opportunity to learn about our traditions, listen to our stories, and learn from our experiences. You will discover the warmth of our people, the passion for music, art, and dance that runs through our veins.
Imagine waking up each morning to the tempting aroma of freshly brewed Cuban coffee and enjoying a homemade traditional breakfast served with love on our terrace. You will engage in pleasant conversations with us and we will guide you to explore the most authentic corners of the city.
Furthermore, our privileged location will allow you to experience the historical and cultural richness of Havana, as we are close to important points of interest such as the Museum of the Revolution, the Malecón, the Capitol, and the Cathedral Square. At the end of the day, you can return to our home and relax on our terrace, where you can savor a refreshing Cuban drink prepared by the host while exchanging stories with other travelers.
We look forward to welcoming you with open arms at Casa Buenos Aires, where you will experience the true Cuba!

Los chicos son unos anfitriones excelentes. Se nota el trabajo que invierten en el proyecto y en hacer sentir a los huéspedes lo mejor posible. Nos ayudaron a gestionar el transporte y otros alojamientos, y el desayuno y la terracita son de 10. Pero lo mejor de todo sin duda es su valor humano. Sois grandes personas y os deseamos lo mejor!!

Gracias Belén y Alex, nos aguaron los ojos con tan bonito comentario. Estas palabras son un premio a todo el trabajo que realizamos en equipo, junto a las otras chicas y chicos. Somos una pequeña familia que hemos priorizado el bienestar y la atención de nuestros huéspedes. Amenas conversaciones tuvimos acá y nos alegra que nuestros consejos fueran de gran ayuda. Los cubanos tenemos una cualidad que nos distingue,es el sentido de colaboración y le ponemos el alma a todo cuanto hacemos. Ojalá muy pronto ustedes puedan volver, acá estaríamos sin dudas con las puertas abiertas. Créanlo, los agradecidos somos nosotros!!!!!
Un fuerte abrazo desde la calida Cuba

Maravillosa casa en el centro de La Habana Vieja! Desde tu llegada te reciben con una gran sonrisa y te hacen sentir como en casa. Las habitaciones son geniales y la atención inmejorable. Desayunamos en su magnifica terraza las dos mañanas que estuvimos allí, y el desayuno es otra maravilla de esta casa, súper completa y deliciosa! No lo duden, no encontraran un sitio mejor!! :)

Querida Irati, que comentario tan lindo! Gracias por tener esos calificativos, gracias por hacernos partícipes de tus vacaciones. Acá nos dejaron esa alegría contagiosa que las caracteriza, a ti y tus amigas. Nos sentimos muy a gusto y satisfechos de poder compartir charlas y vivencias. De eso se trata, de intercambiar con la gente de todo el mundo, que luego se convierte en parte de la historia de esta pequeña casa de familia. Acá siempre estaremos, ojalá un buen día se animen volver para poderles dar merecido abrazo y una calida bienvenida
Saludos y todo lo mejor les desean

La casa está en una excelente localización y equipada con todo lo necesario. Muy limpia y tranquila. Tanto Osmany, Luis y el resto del personal fueron súper amables con nosotras y nos atendieron en todas las dudas que teníamos. El primer día, durante el desayuno (buenísimo y completo), Osmany nos dio un mapa y nos dejó muy buenas recomendaciones de visitar y comer/beber. Ha sido un placer conocerles y habernos quedado en la casa, sin duda si volvemos (ojalá) repetiremos.

Auf unserer Reise durch Kuba, einem Land, das – trotz der schwierigen wirtschaftlichen Situation – durch die Menschen, die hier leben, viel zu geben hat, lernten wir unsere Gastgeber Luis und Osmany kennen. Sie haben uns hervorragend betreut und bewirtet, Taxis bestellt, Veranstaltungs-Tickets besorgt, informiert und gute Tipps gegeben. Die Zimmer waren schön eingerichtet und blitzsauber (Danke an die Hausfeen!). Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Die ganze Familie bedankt sich herzlich für die warmherzige Gastfreundschaft, die uns entgegengebracht wurde! Es war uns eine Ehre, Gast bei euch sein zu dürfen und wir werden euch nicht vergessen!
En nuestro recorrido por Cuba, un país que -a pesar de la difícil situación económica- tiene mucho que dar a través de la gente que vive aqui, conocimos a nuestros anfitriones Luis y Osmany. Nos atendieron y entretuvieron excelentemente, ordenaron taxis, consiguieron boletos para la Buena Vista Social Night, brindaron información y dieron buenos consejos. Las habitaciones estaban muy bien amuebladas y relucientes (¡gracias a las hadas de la casa!). Nos sentimos muy cómodos. ¡Toda la familia quiere agradecerle la cálida hospitalidad que nos ha brindado! ¡Fue un honor para nosotros ser vuestros huespedes y no os olvidaremos!

Dear Andrea, you have moved us with such beautiful words, we feel flattered and extremely grateful. Being able to organize some things for you, so that your vacations in Havana have been pleasant, is our main mission. As a family house that we are, we attach great importance to the satisfaction of our guests. We love your adjective - fairy girls!!! They are our sisters at home, who guarantee absolute cleanliness in rooms and other areas. We loved receiving you, for us Cubans family will always be the most important thing. That is the common denominator, ignoring languages and cultures. We leave a big hug to all of you. Looking forward to a repeat visit!

The room was absolutely perfect for a stay in Havana. It is placed directly in Old Havana - everything is reachable by feet. The owener Luis and Osmani are such wonderful people which helped us in so many ways. They have organised the transport from Varadero to Havana even if there was a oil crisis in Cuba. They told us the best places and restaurants to visit in Havana. The breakfast was very tasty too - so thank you for the great stay!

We can only recommend the Casa. The location is perfect, the rooms are very clean. But the nicest thing was talking to the hosts. We felt like we were in a family.

Absolute emotion we have felt when reading this review. We really enjoyed your stay in our house. We miss the conversations every afternoon, on the terrace, while you enjoyed a cold Mayabe or Cristal beer! Our entire family thanks you for choosing us to spend part of your vacation. We will remember you forever and we wish we could see you another time. Know that Casa Buenos Aires in Cuba will be at your disposal whenever you want to return.
A warm hug, with a Caribbean flavor!
