From the old-fashioned cobbled streets of Havana, lined with classic cars, colonial architecture, and friendly locals, to the white sandy beaches of Varadero with crystal-clear waters and a tropical Caribbean climate, Cuba is an easy choice for those seeking an unforgettable getaway.

Deciding where to stay in Havana, however, may prove more of a challenge thanks to the city’s captivating and ever-evolving hotel scene. With options to suit every taste and preference, the capital offers a unique blend of elegance, artistic flair, and modern sophistication, making the choice as exciting as it is diverse.

That’s where we come in. Let us provide some guidance by introducing you to a new rising star, nestled in the very capital of Cuba. A rising star is the perfect way to describe this 2025 premium hotel.

Standing proudly at 155 metres with 42 floors, Havana’s Iberostar Selection La Habana hotel towers above the twinkling city skyline to claim its spot as Cuba’s tallest building.

Nestled on the iconic 23rd Avenue, Havana’s ultimate cinematic centre and the heart of El Vedado, the Iberostar Selection La Habana’s sought-after location provides guests with easy access to both the historic streets of Old Havana as well as the vibrant modern city.

The hotel embraces the cinematic legacy of its surroundings, weaving Havana’s rich film history into its very fabric.

Effortlessly embodying class and style, The Iberostar Selection La Habana has stopped at nothing to provide the very best leisure and entertainment options for its discerning guests.
