We were shown into a room which, although it had a sea view, also had a very large hole under the air conditioning unit, exposing us to the outside elements. Under normal Cuban weather conditions, this might not have mattered much, but we had the misfortune to arrive in the middle of a gale and a strong wind blew through... More

We stayed here for 4 nights and spend the days relaxing on the beach and walking around Varadero. The hotel is old. If you are looking for new, spiffy or immaculate, do not stay here. The rooms were relatively clean and the air conditioning worked. There was a tv but we never turned it on. The hotel was peaceful at... More

I was put in a room without balcony. It was a room inside which seems to be an apartment before. I got to "the apartment" with two rooms and a living room. Housekeepers were seating in the sofa of the living room, chatting between them as if they were hotel guest. I have nothing against them but I felt I... More

i think this hotel is the cheaper in varadero,the rooms are small and old.but the breakfast buffet is good.and the beach very nice.the bus station is only 1 klm.if you don't want something luxury is nice place to stay.

As the title says, everything you've read (reviews) on this hotel are true. The hotel is horrible and the food even worse. Even if the beds are made, I dont think they've changed the sheets, barely any paper toilet and didn't have any hot water. The only up side is that you're on the beach. My recommendation is to stay... More

Well, I was staying a night 11.11.2010 at the Herradura hotel. This hotel has a unique location. Hardly can you find another one in Varadero or all over the country which is situated just 5 meters from the Atlantic Ocean! Would you like more? As a member of the cheapest ISLAZUL Cuban chain, the Herradura offers bed and breakfast accommodation... More

Unbelievable bad expereince! The hotel is an OLD rotten bulding. Placed in a perfect good location just rightafter a white sand beach and with a cosy hotel hall, the hotel structure looks like some old russian building. The stairs way to rooms is totally dirty and almost scary. Rooms are big and with air conditioning but not very clean! Toilette... More

Let's start with the staircase to your room. Wood, with a fire extinguisher on every landing, and a shaky open railing that comes up to about mid-thigh. Once you're up to your floor, you'll pass through a shared living/lounging/partying area with access to the sea-view balcony before going back to your room, which faces the street. Our room was clean... More

I was quite impressed how the personel at Herradura was polite, courteous, respectful and how everyone helps one another. Unlike 4 star hotels, Herradura is a small hotel with a small family like personel. The rooms were clean and breakfast was included in the price (which is very reasonable). It is located close to Varadero where you can visit other... More
