Recent review (09/01/2012)
Bags of character. The rooms are beautifully set around the court yard. Some nice spots to sit and read and a fantastic location for exploring Habana Vieja (Old Havana).
Overview
This house, built at the end of 18th century, belonged to the Sotolongo family. A few meters away from San Francisco Convent and the Arms Square, near the oldest areas of the city.
For those who rather share their stay with an environment full of centenary memories, the Habaguanex S.A Company offers lodging facilities on a net of hotels and inns, where the Valencia occupies a privileged position.
Inaugurated in 1989, the old house of Alderman Sotolongo, originally built as a private house in the late 18th century, lodges today the Valencia Inn.
The Valencia Inn, located in a privileged corner just 200 meters from the Plaza de Armas (Arms Square) and a few steps from the Minor Basilica of Saint Francis of Assisi, is a place where Valencian traditions are worshipped. Also close to first class restaurants as Al Medina and La Mina.
Those interested in what Cuban culture has to offer, can access from the Valencia to the Cathedral Square, Wilfredo Lam Center, House Guayasamín, the Automobile Museum, Conde de Villanueva Inn and Santa Isabel Hotel.

Accommodation Information
The Valencia Inn possesses 10 rooms, 3 of which are suites.
Its carved red roof, balustrades and iron work of its interior courtyard give plenty of old world charm and local character to this hotel. The beautiful interior is light and fresh and overflowing with exuberant vegetation. It's an oasis in the centre of this historic area.
All of the rooms are equipped with color TV, private bathrooms and mini bars. It also offers the best Cuban cigars on the first floor at La Casa Del Tobacco.
The Bohemian Nostalgia bar, decorated in 1950's patterns is one of the attractions of this small hotel where you can find some of the best local music of the fifties. It is a unique opportunity for you to offer a toast to your luck, featuring The Cocktail of The House “White Sheets'.
Finally, there is no finer place to eat Paella in all of Havana than the Hostal Valencia Restaurant. It has been the winner of the Best Prize at the International Paella’s Contest in Sueca, Spain for two years running.
