This
property was
originally
built in the
early 18th
century by
Don Pedro
Regalado
Pedroso y
Zagas and
was
refurbished
in the 19th
century when
a mezzanine
was added
which
distinguishes
this mansion
form others
in the area.
The former
palace, like
many of the
oldest
mansions of
San
Cristobal de
la Habana,
has a strong
Moorish
influence,
with the
main
entrance to
one corner.
Close to one
of the most
important
squares in
Havana, (
Plaza de San
Francisco )
it is
caressed by
the sea
breezes
coming from
the nearby
harbor and
entranceway
to the Bay
of Havana,
which can be
appreciated
from the
balconies of
its
magnificent
rooms.
The Inn also
boasts a
typical 18th
century
tavern with
the name of
"Onda", a
region of
Valencia
Spain. On a
rustic bar,
different
Spanish "Tapas"
are offered
along with
exotic wines
of the
region.
Its
furniture,
with simple
renaissance
elements and
some
refinished
original
pieces from
our heritage
combine to
satisfy the
most
demanding
clients
ideas about
modern
comfort.
Old woods
from the
original
mansion were
preserved
during the
restoration,
old barrels
and pictures
from that
region
decorate the
tavern and
its outdoor
cafe.
