Havana, May 2022 - Archipelago, Southeast Asia's largest private and independent hotel management group, has announced the expansion of its Cuba portfolio with the opening of GRAND ASTON La Habana. Rising to the Havana Malecón sky, this urban oasis is ideally located in the bustling Vedado, the capital’s central commercial district, close to offices, shops, restaurants, and entertainment. Vedado is much more than a commercial district. It also has an electric nightlife, with clubs like La Zorra y el Cuervo, the Yellow Submarine, and the Cabaret Parisien providing quality entertainment. There are many interesting attractions in Vedado, including the Museo de Artes Decorativas, the Colon Cemetery, and John Lennon Park.
GRAND ASTON La Habana takes modern living to the next level, revealing unique designer architecture, fresh rooms, eclectic dining, inspiring event spaces, and beautiful wellness facilities, including the city’s only 24-hour fitness center and an amazing 56-meter-long swimming pool overlooking the sparkling waters of iconic Havana Bay. With an innovative design, and a refuge of elegant and contemporary sophistication, its interior decoration is a perfect fusion between the Havana style of the 1930s and the Asian refinement of GRAND ASTON.
For a unique experience of rejuvenation and relaxation, our Wellness Center by Spa Ubud offers exotic Asian healing techniques, the only one in the city offering massages with authentically Balinese techniques. As additional comforts for our guests, the hotel is also the first in the capital to house a bank branch (BFI).
"We're delighted to be opening what will become a true icon in the Havanna hotel scene. One of the most creatively designed hotels is ready to welcome guests and will help showcase the amazing Cuban hospitality and this unique city,” said John Flood, CEO & President of Archipelago.
