We were put here because the hotel booked for the start of our tour - The Telegrafo - was double booked. The Lido was very basic and we had an interesting group of insects in our bathroom. They had made their home in the rotten wood of the door frame, so at least they were happy. The room was small... more

If you stay here be sure to ask for a room with balcony facing outward. Arrived and put into dungeon style room that smelt like a sewer. Asked to be moved and after paying extra got a room with a balcony facing onto the street which was much better. Although left by mistake a wash bag with medicine behind and... more

the lido is basic with a capital B, but its cheap and cheerful. if you want big rooms, hot water and air conditioning that makes no noise dont book this hotel. its on a very noisy side street off the prado, you can walk past it without noticing and have i mentioned it has no hot water..but if you want... more

The hotel is worse than other budget hotels I have stayed in -- For US$40/night in Havana we expected something more than what we got -- 1) The sheets and blankets were stained and they were not changed at all during our 4-night stay. (We hope the sheets were fresh when we checked in -- fingers crossed.) 2) Hot water... more

The hotel is located in the deep downtown of Havana. It's really cheap (we paid around 25 euros per night in a double room) and the conditions are those which the price indicates. Some rooms have no hot water and people need to move to other rooms. The landscape in the breakfast terrace is fantastic. Dinner is not bad and... more

The Lido was among the cheapest hotels in Havana, which is why I went for it. And in its case you certainly get what you pay for. It was a bit grim. The bedroom looked grotty and the bathroom was the size of a closet. On the first night there was NO WATER and then it was cold for the... more

Choosing how many rating-circles to color above is kind of diffucult with this hotel. I gave it an above average rating but only because of the price. The thing is, that this is the cheapest hotel in Havana. I stayed there twice, and I like it, even though it is...um...not exactly a nice hotel. I paid $21 per night when... more

This hotel recently changed hands and you can tell. They are renovating the rooms one by one. I had a room with two single beds, a toilet with a toilet seat (!!) and toilet paper, AC, satellite TV with about 30 channels, cold water showers (they've never had hot water, despite what the other reviewer states), towels & mini-soap provided,... more

We stayed two nights at the Lido on an excursion from Varadero. The price was $36 U.S. per night for a double room with 2 standard sized beds. A balcony room would have cost an extra $5. Instead, we had a window with a view of the wall of the building next door, about a foot away. The room was... more
