As an example Lillevi made a fine "list of things to know preparing for Cuba" that I didn't find updated anywhere else.

  We stayed at Casa Cuarteles during our Holiday in Cuba and we absolutely enjoyed every minute there. The place offers you so many authentic experiences which you won't find in... read more any 5 star hotel.

From the very first moment, we felt incredibly welcomed and taken care off. The hosts, Lilevi and Alberto, which are the most warm-hearted, genuine and considerate people we've met, are giving the place a homely feeling. Through our entire stay, they went above and beyond with giving us useful recommendations, arranging the most lovely and interesting tours and also making sure that our stay is as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.

The room was very clean and beautifully decorated, with a comfortable bed. We really enjoyed taking our breakfast, which was delicious, on the lovely rooftop terrace. Also, after a day on the busy streets of Havana or even after an exciting full day tour, there isn’t a more agreeable way to spend the evening than relaxing and having a drink on the terrace, which is so quiet in the afternoon.

Really recommend this place! Well done and keep up the good work! Last and not least, thank you for everything, Lilevi & Alberto! More

  The breakfast at the terrace must be the best in Havana and it’s a great way to start the day looking over the city and the water. The staff is... read more lovely and Lillevi and Alberto walk that extra mile to make the stay as smooth and comfortable possible with an genuine and familiar warmth. The building is beautiful and the fantastic mural artwork is a bliss, that and the bed was the best I’ve slept on. Old Havana is authentic with its living culture and Casa Cuarteles is where you wanna be staying.

  THE BEST PLACE TO STAY IN HAVANA

We stayed here for 2 nights in March 22. We booked the Oshun Suite. WOW, WOW, WOW it was absolutely amazing. The... read more decor was spectacular and we felt like we were staying in our own little palace and were transported back to 1950s Havana.

The owners Lilievi and Alberto are the stars of this wonderful place. They help you with absolutely everything.

The breakfast was gorgeous, we were served tea/coffees, fresh fruit with yoghurt, omelette, cheese and ham on the most beautiful terrace we have ever seen. This overlooked Havana including the Capitol building.

We would sit on our balcony watching the world go by in the real Old Havana. The street is in the heart of everything. The best location you could ask for.

Lillevi was able to help and arrange with everything we wanted to do in Havana. She recommended and arranged our tickets to the Parisian Show at The National De Cuba hotel.
What a fabulous night we had there. It was a super show.
She also arranged a walking tour and recommended some amazing restaurants close by.
She and Alberto even sorted us a night out dancing in old Havana.

Lilievi & Alberto made our stay in Havana so special and we will be forever grateful to them for that.

If you book Casa Cuarteles it will be the best decision that you will make for a stay in Havana.

Gracias nuestras hermosas amigas.

  Casa Cuarteles is truly fantastic! The building is located in Old Havana close to restaurants and bars, and has been lovingly renovated. It exudes a wonderful colonial feel, while providing... read more all necessary modern amenities. But what makes Casa Cuarteles truly outstanding are the hosts and staff who are caring and attentive. I caught COVID while on a fishing trip in Cuba, and ended up quarantined for 5 days in the B&B, after which I also spent another week there waiting to be allowed to fly back to Canada. During my quarantine, the owner Lillevi (who speaks 5 languages fluently) and her husband Alberto, together with their staff, brought me excellent food, monitored my health, managed relations with the local health authorities, and kept my spirits up. After my quarantine, when I was allowed to go outside again, they provided valuable advice on local sights, museums, events and restaurants (their own breakfast spread is wonderful), as well as recommendations for tour guides. At a time of vulnerability, they all made sure that I felt safe and cared for - part of their family. I could not have been in a better place at the time. I highly recommend Casa Cuarteles, Lillevi and her staff to anyone considering staying in Old Havana.

This last trip... read more I stayed at Casa Cuarteles in Old Havana. What an amazing and wonderful experience. The owners Lillevi and her husband are warm friendly people who immediately make you feel
welcome and like family. Lillevi is so pleasant and charming and she will do anything to make your stay enjoyable. She recommended two restaurants both of which were excellent. Her husband was very helpful in arranging for taxis and tours in the amazing old cars found everywhere in Havana. The rooms are very nice and the beds are comfortable. The breakfast that is served in the upstairs terrace is also fantastic.
If you are ever in Havana you must stay at Casa Cuarteles

  I can't find enough good things to say about Casa Cuarteles and their lovely staff. It is perfectly located in Old Havana, just outside of the busies streets, but a... read more short walk to the action. The rooms are lovely, and the rooftop terrace a true oasis. Lillevi, her husband and staff went the extra mile with us, helping organize restaurants, taxis, and advice on where to get Covid testing for return flights to the US. This is a rare find that will not disappoint.

Having travelled to Cuba a number of times and stayed in different casas we have to say that the quality of the accommodation was unrivalled. The suite was exquisitely decorated with artwork and murals by well-known local artists giving an authentic Cuban touch as well as commodities which are not easily found elsewhere in Havana such as a hot, high water pressure shower, WiFi, air conditioning, smoke detectors, a well-equipped kitchen (fridge, hob, glasses, mugs, plater and cutlery), dining area with table and chairs, and a comfortable sofa in the living room. There was great storage space in the bedroom. The bed was beautifully arranged with a comfortable mattress and reading lights. Our hosts had thought of little touches like leaving a hairdryer and liquid hand soap and body wash in the bathroom. Our suite had a lovely terrace with a table and chairs to watch life in Havana from. The location was fantastic being right in the centre of Old Havana, close to its squares, historic buildings for sightseeing and restaurants. The breakfast on the rooftop terrace was fantastic with fruit, yogurt, toast, eggs, cheese, marmalade, pastry, freshly made fruit juice and coffee. The rooftop space also offered us a place to sunbathe and have a refreshment during the day. We can’t wait to come back soon!

  I can't thank enough to Lily for having me here and sharing with me this crazy experience of sharing the culture, the vibe that is involved in this home and... read more all the story behind the building. I experienced a great time here cause you could see how the local life is by just walking 10 metres at the terrace and from the room, it's another different world. The stuff is the best and the service is great, EXCELLNT is nothing compared to the experience we had here. Thanks again!

  If there is a place to stay in the Old Town of Habana this is it! With the best location in the Old Town.

The Swedish owner Lillevi makes your stay feel personal and pleasant and is the best guide to all of Cuba. She also speaks English, French, Italian apart from Swedish and Spanish.

I will definitely return again and again!
