I'm a Canadian who visited and stayed at Florencia in Santa Clara for 2 nights. I had the city view room, centrally located and only a 2 minute walk to the central Square. My room was clean, the bed super comfortable, and the air conditioning worked well. For such an old building, it has been renovated very nicely, with some modern touches, while keeping true to its colonial character. The owners, Gloria and Gabrielle,her being Cuban and his being Italian, are super hosts. Gloria helped me out of a money bind when my visa and atm card didn't work. I had to get money wired from Canada through Western Union, but in Cuba, a non resident can't receive the funds, only a Cuban. She went with me 2 times to the Western Union place and waited with me to receive the money; the first time there was a problem with the transaction but the second time was a success. If it hadn't been for her, I wouldn't have had any money to drink or eat. I owe her immensely all my gratitude. As well, she is a wealth of information of Santa Clara and its history and she is happy to share it with you. As for Gabrielle, he does the cooking for the menu they offer. You'll have no reason to eat outside the hostal because the food is to die for. You can compare it to Micheline 5 star 3-5 course meals but without the expense; quite reasonably priced and you know it's prepared safely. Without a doubt, this was a wonderful stay and look forward to returning.

Gloria’s local knowledge of things to see and do in and around Santa Clara was excellent! Gloria’s husband is from Florence Italy. Meals were fantastic! Your own personal chef! WOW!

Wonderful. More like a boutique hotel
This place is an oasis like no mother I experienced in Cuba. It is not a hotel but is well above the usual hostal in Cuba. I would describe it more as a boutique hotel. The owners are wonderful with one an always smiling local and the other an excellent Italian chef. They make a great combination. The breakfast alone is worth the stay (amazing fruit platter and bread comes with four different home made jams as well as home made peanut butter!) but make sure you also have at least one lunch or dinner here too.

Disliked: Staff & service
Impossible to reach owner
We booked here and paid in advance then had no luck getting a bus to Santa Clara due to Cuban busses being so overbooked. I tried to call and cancel for 2 days and the phone number never worked or there was no answer and no other way to reach the owners. Also, they do not provide refunds no matter what the reason, so beware that if your plans change, you are out the money.
