About the Hotel

1015 Navarro Street, San Antonio, Texas, United States, 78205

Hotel Havana, a four-star boutique hotel located on a quiet stretch of San Antonio's River Walk known as the Museum Reach, was opened in 1914 by local grocer Edward Franz Melcher with a vision to recreate the tropical allure of its Caribbean namesake. The charming combination of Mediterranean Revival architecture, rich Spanish Colonial history, and calm Caribbean temperament has made Havana one of the most authentic places to stay in San Antonio.

Unique Historic Rooms

No two of Hotel Havana's unique guest rooms are exactly alike, featuring original Bastrop Pine floors, antique furniture, Turkish rugs, and vintage Cuban artwork. The rooms include SMEG refrigerators with amply stocked minibars, custom supersoft serape robes, and heavyweight linen bedcovers. The 60.5 m², split-level Penthouse offers old world elegance and comfortable space for lounging, sleeping, and entertaining.

Pan-Latin Dining Experience

Ocho, the hotel's glass-enclosed restaurant situated along the River Walk, serves breakfast, lunch, dinner, and late-night snacks. The restaurant has created a menu rooted in the hotel's pan-Latin cultural influences from Mexico, Cuba, and Texas. Havana Bar offers cocktails in a dimly candlelit basement setting suitable for intimate meetings and secret rendezvous.

Event Spaces Available

The Havana provides an elegant backdrop for private events, weddings, and other important occasions for groups of 5 to 150. Flexible meeting rooms adjacent to Ocho, as well as Terrace, Library, and in-suite options can be tailored to support professional productivity and creativity. The Bar, a San Antonio landmark, features specialty drinks and a chocolate sampler with handmade treats.

Central River Walk Location

Hotel Havana is conveniently located next to the Tobin Center for Performing Arts and minutes away from the redeveloped Pearl district, The Alamo, and the Southwest School of Art. The hotel is within a 5-minute drive of the Rivercenter Mall, which has shopping and dining. San Antonio International Airport is 20 km away from the property.

I absolutely adored my stay at this hotel. The location is unbeatable, close to the River Walk and within walking distance of many downtown attractions. The rooms were cozy and had a kitchen, complete with cute robes and a Smeg fridge offering local snacks for purchase. The service was top-notch, with staff who genuinely cared about making my visit memorable. The dining experience at the on-site restaurant was exceptional, and the facilities were well-maintained and convenient.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms felt as if we had booked a room in a cool Mexican hacienda, but they overpoweringly smelled like the inside of a Hollister throughout the stay no matter how much we aired them out. The service was extremely kind and accommodating, and the location, although a little rougher than downtown, was great for accessing public transportation and seeing sights.

The rooms had a unique Mexican hacienda vibe, but the overpowering Hollister smell was a downside.

I was pleased with the hotel's prime location, just a stone's throw from the Riverwalk and conveniently situated between the touristy Alamo and the up-and-coming Pearl Brewery area. The staff's exceptional service made my stay memorable, but the overpowering scent in the room was a downside that lingered throughout my visit.

The room's design and color scheme were attractive; however, the overpowering Hollister-like scent was a persistent issue despite efforts to ventilate the space.
