Well, I was staying a night 11.11.2010 at the Herradura hotel. This hotel has a unique location. Hardly can you find another one in Varadero or all over the country which is situated just 5 meters from the Atlantic Ocean! Would you like more? As a member of the cheapest ISLAZUL Cuban chain, the Herradura offers bed and breakfast accommodation... More

Unbelievable bad expereince! The hotel is an OLD rotten bulding. Placed in a perfect good location just rightafter a white sand beach and with a cosy hotel hall, the hotel structure looks like some old russian building. The stairs way to rooms is totally dirty and almost scary. Rooms are big and with air conditioning but not very clean! Toilette... More

Let's start with the staircase to your room. Wood, with a fire extinguisher on every landing, and a shaky open railing that comes up to about mid-thigh. Once you're up to your floor, you'll pass through a shared living/lounging/partying area with access to the sea-view balcony before going back to your room, which faces the street. Our room was clean... More

I was quite impressed how the personel at Herradura was polite, courteous, respectful and how everyone helps one another. Unlike 4 star hotels, Herradura is a small hotel with a small family like personel. The rooms were clean and breakfast was included in the price (which is very reasonable). It is located close to Varadero where you can visit other... More

It is rated a 2*and is just that, for 40CUC a night when next door the Hotels are 120CUC a night what can you expect. It is a basic place, and old hotel aged and tired. Don't forget that in this apart hotel, the kitchen and lounge is shared with another room. The hand rails, were rusted and not safe,... More

This hotel is about the cheapest on the Varadero beach strip and it's right on the beachfront. But it's very rundown, not too clean and some of the staff not very friendly. What is it about hotel reception staff all over the Cuba? They don't smile much and almost throw the room key at you. More

Our experience was mixed. Here is why... We were on the 4th floor and got robbed in the middle of the night. We have no idea how the thief got up to the fourth floor through the window. We suspect it might be an 'inside job', The police came and 'investigated'. We were moved to a different room. When we... More

My husband and I stayed here for three nights. We had foolishly purchased a Cuban flexi pass which gave us a basic model hire car and a choice of a few hotels in each town. The Club Herradura was one of the very few in which we were entitled to stay in the expensive tourist strip of Varadero. This was... More

Booked into the Herradura with realistic expectations however was apalled and left the following morning at sun break. I am by no means fussy and have travelled extensively in 3rd world countries, however, this was far and above the worst hotel I have ever experienced. The rooms are small dingy, SMELLY & damp with plaster falling off the walls. No... More
