A/S Boutique Residence
Havana, Cuba
A Colonial Beauty Reimagined
Located within the very center of the most historic neighborhood on the island, this luxury boutique hotel in Havana immerses you within the picturesque and atmospheric streets of colonial splendor and the unmistakable vintage charms of La Habana Vieja.
A unique design concept that pairs the flavors of Cuba with contemporary European refinement, the hotel offers an experience where the appreciation of art, culture, and design converge.
Founded and restored by Netherlands-born abstract artist and fashion industry veteran Andre Visser and his Havana-born partner Sandy Solano Diaz, a professional dancer and musician, the hotel is a unique concept of colonial heritage meets contemporary international design.
‘Coming from the international Design and Art world, we have travelled the globe and lived in different continents and metropoles. That international experience is brought to life in the lifestyle of A|S Boutique Residence …’
The landmark colonial mansion has been restored to its former glory in a captivating renovation at the intersection of past and present, that exudes elegance, charm, and character.
Welcome to La Nueva Habana.
With just four rooms and one suite, the hotel is intimate and private, combining that rare balance between the comfortable feel of a home and the allure of a world-class, international destination, with an elegant yet informal atmosphere of quiet sophistication and eclectic style.
Decor ranges from hand made Italian furnishings and lighting, original Carrara marble and colorful handcrafted tiles, along with contemporary Cuban art and Visser's own large-scale canvases.
The ground floor HAV Coffee & Art Gallery offers up the best Cuban coffee, and delicious local and international fare (dinners on request) along with exhibitions from local and international artists, music events and other art performances.
