Meliá Santiago de Cuba

Frommer's Review

This unique, postmodern high-rise, a mass of blue, red, and gray steel girders and glass, is the largest hotel in Santiago and easily its most luxurious. It's in a peaceful area about 2km (1 1/4 miles) from the historic core, which is perfect for guests who need a little bit more tranquillity and space. It has facilities and services in spades, including the best outdoor pool in the city -- the cost of the hotel is nearly worth it for the pool alone. Rooms are attractive and large, with huge windows offering up excellent views, particularly from the higher floors. The hotel has an excellent nightly cabaret show in its atmospheric Santiago Café, which is an indoor reconstruction of a miniature colonial city.

Facilities:
4 restaurants; 3 bars; nightly show; 3 outdoor pools; 2 lit outdoor tennis courts; small gym; sauna; tour desk; car-rental desk; business center; small shopping arcade; salon; 24-hr. room service; laundry service
