Eat, Stay, Play: Havana, Cuba

Posted on April 28, 2015 by Nikki Pepper

Exploring the streets of Cuba, you will find exuberant, lively people and music pouring from every corner. Our recent Michaela’s Map journey took us from the roof of our favorite Havana restaurant to biking on dirt roads across the country.

La Guarida

418 Concordia

Don’t let its crumbling façade fool you. Each historic floor features carefully selected pieces by local artists. And do not miss toasting sunset on the rooftop overlooking all of Havana. Cuba is a cash economy, so bring your convertible pesos.

The salmon-colored building built in the roaring 20’s is a corner staple in Old Havana. The simple accommodation is ideal for the literature nerd as it was frequented by Ernest Hemingway.
